Getting fit in the New Year!

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to get fit.  I have begun to incorporate more produce into my diet and have been researching and using healthier recipes.

One way to stay motivated is to have resources at hand, and of course, I strive to find everything at a discount!

Best Deal Magazines has great prices on Health & Fitness magazines.  My very favorite is Clean Eating!

I am excited to have that resource available to me for inspiration and ideas. Though my family and I have always eaten healthy, we still eat some processed foods (because of convenience). I have been gradually reducing the amount of processed foods in my diet and I have already noticed  a difference.  My energy level has increased and I am not as fatigued at the end of the day!  Besides losing weight that has been the best perk of my new diet.

If you have a goal to get fit this year, the key is to just stay motivated! You can do it!

Kale Chips! A great frugal and healthy snack!

This is my new favorite snack!
It's easy to make and healthy, too! Kale is easy to grow in your garden, so maybe eventually it will be FREE for you to make :)



Recipe:

You'll need: Fresh Kale or Organic Kale 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Trim leaves away from large stems, tear into bite size pieces. Rinse and strain (with salad spinner is best), put into a bowl and add 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp seasoned salt (I used about 1/2 tsp Tony's seasoning instead). Toss to coat. Lay in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake about 10 minutes until crisp. 

Yummy!
