There are not enough meals where the lettuce is the wrap. Lettuce makes a great wrap for a couple reasons, – one it has no calories and two you can find leaves of lettuce to hold just about anything. Go with romaine lettuce. Saute up some ground turkey meat or your favorite ground protein in sesame oil. Add in some garlic, ginger, chicken broth, spices and hoisin sauce. Throw that on your lettuce and wrap it up.
This is a kind of pizza burrito recipe. Take a whole wheat tortilla wrap. Slather on your favorite pizza sauce, some baby spinach and some mozzarella cheese. Wrap that bad boy up and toss it in the microwave for a bit until the cheese gets all melty. This pizza roll up is a quick and easy meal for any child or even the Fat Guy has been known to toss back a couple of these.
We talked about stuff like keynoting the FitBloggin 11 conference, a great corned beef and cabbage recipe we found on Weight Watchers website and how surprised we were that our buddy Lisa Lillien didn’t have one on her Hungry Girl website.,
We are running a new Twitter contest on our Facebook page. It works like this. We are given 3 tweets from Meghann Anderson and we have to match up the tweet with the fitness celeb that tweeted it. This weeks tweets are from @HungryGirl, @Bethenny and @KirstieAlley.
Both Dr Fitness and I said that #1 was Kirstie Alley; #2 was Bethenny Frankel and #3 was Lisa Lillien. One randomly selected Facebook fan who guesses right wins something – probably an exercise dvd or two.
Our guest today was Sam Tickle star of the Unstoppable Tour.
Baby strollers are a necessary evil for every new parent. You have to ask yourself – do I want my kid to be driving around in a Volvo or a Miata. Some parents go for the stroller that takes a team to break it down and put it in the car and get it out again. The real reason most people buy minivans are because they need a vehicle large enough to hold their stroller. The moment my kid could hold his head up we moved to one of those cheapy umbrella strollers that fold down in about a second and fit on the floor of your backseat. You runners should consider the jogging stroller made of those super lightweight titanium metals so you can run without hurting your back. Whichever stroller path you decide to go down – remember to fill out the registration form and send it back – that is the best way to be alerted if your stroller is ever part of a recall.

Twenty-four years ago, Stephen Seidel heard an interview on the news with Jimmy Carter and was inspired to pick up a hammer and an apron and get involved as a volunteer with Habitat for Humanity in his local Minneapolis, St.Paul affiliate. Twenty four years later, Stephen Seidel serves the same organization as the Senior Director for the organization’s Global Program Design and Implementation. Among other profound principles, one that struck me most was how he has been able to blend his passion with his career. Great life lesson for all of us.
In this moving interview, you will hear about how Habitat for Humanity International allowed the difficult economic times to forge new innovative ways of thinking. It’s really an amazing story as Stephen illustrates the impact by opening a window into their new work in what was a deteriorating neighborhood of Milwaukee. Listen as he talks about how because of this new work, people are now back on their front porch greeting neighbors as they walk by and strolling to the local merchants that once were closed up but now thriving.
Amazing story. Moving interview. Tranformational work. Listen in and I think you will agree.
Who doesn’t like tacos? Here’s a way to make them kind of healthy. Use pinto beans instead of meat. Go heavier on the shredded romaine lettuce, use a freshly made salsa, throw in some crushed garlic cloves and some avocado. Eat a couple of those bad boys in a taco shell and you are good to go.
Flat out wraps are a great tool for easy meals. Grill up some chicken. Chop it up and put it in the center of the wrap. Throw in some of your favorite veggies like: shredded romaine lettuce, peppers, tomatoes and onions. Cheese is an option. Now its time to wrap this meal up and eat.
