Don’t you just love the longer days?! They provide a great chance to get out and exercise, work in the yard and just be more active! No excuse now why you can’t get those 10, 000 steps in! For me, the longer days means I want to be in the kitchen a little less, and I am always on the hunt for quick and tasty recipes, like this one!
Making sure that we get our exercise in is so very important because it is a vital player in our health, and one that is pushed aside too often for other things.
This recipe checks the boxes for quick, tasty and nutritious! There’s minimal pots to clean up, and that means I can get outside and go for a walk. All the evidence about healthy eating is accompanied by regular exercise…150 minutes a week if possible plus two days of strength training!
