Why do this?

DO WORK! It's a saying used to motivate people, particularly at the gym, or in my case, at CrossFit.



DO EAT! In my experience, when people work out they are afraid to eat. In reality, it's not the case. It's more that they don't know what to eat. It's ok to eat. In fact, when you're working out, you HAVE to eat!



Over two years ago, I got fed up with how I looked and felt so I decided to embark on a "lifestyle change" (I refuse to say diet). That included exercise and eating right. Over the years, I have learned a lot about nutrition, what to eat and what not to eat. By no means do I claim to be a nutritional expert. I'm just some schmo that's learned from reading and speaking with people that are smarter than me.



That being said, I've developed various recipes using natural and organic ingredients that were not only lower in calories and tasted great, but are also good for you!



CrossFit is supposed to be hard, eating right shouldn't be! So work hard and DO EAT!!

Salsa Chicken - 240 Calories

You have chicken. You have salsa. What do you make? Salsa chicken of course! This recipe uses the salsa that was made in the previous blog entry.

7 Ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 inch cubes
1/2 Cup salsa (from the last recipe)
1/4 Ounce grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne pepper
1/8 Teaspoon salt

Spray a nonstick pan with olive oil from the misto and heat the pan on high. Saute the chicken until brown, lower the heat to medium and add the salsa, salt and cayenne pepper. Stir and cook until done, about 5 - 8 minutes. Place mixture on a plate, sprinkle with the cheese and serve.
