Back to School - Back to YOU !

Well time flies when your having fun!! Seriously I am not even sure where the summer went. Next week the kids start back to school and I know that I am in need of getting back to the basics to get my self back in check !!

I think that the summer is harder than the holidays!!  Parties and BBQs and constantly being on the go with kids activities, well it can take a toll. We can get tired and let go some of those habits that we have been so good about doing !! Meal Prep and Planning !! I proved to myself that it is essential for me. I tried to wing it one to many times and it left me making some food choices that were not bad but probably not the best either.

While I wouldn't say that I completely fell off the wagon, I didn't but I know how I feel and that sluggish tired uncomfortable feeling is creeping back in.. my clothes are fitting differently and with that brings a lack of confidence in myself. Been there, done that and I vowed to never let myself do that again..

I know that no one is perfect and we have to live our lives - I really try to stick to an 80/20 rule, however this summer I know that I did not.. While I do like my sweet treats, I stopped baking my healthier versions which led me to the pantry and snacking on animal crackers and chocolate here and there.. Well all those bit and bites add up over time and I seriously felt like I couldn't go a day without it.. That's a mindset that I need to BREAK !

I know that I can do it because I have done it before... That's where the CHALLENGE GROUP comes in !! I know what to do and how to do it to get back to my goals -- its time to START IMPLEMENTING again !!

Sweet Potato Roasted Red Pepper Bisque

Wow -- This was amazing and is super filling ! I have found some really great recipes while doing the Ultimate Reset  -- this will be added to the weekly rotation for sure !! Another great one to prep in advance and freeze for quick meals ready to go for the week ! Each time I made them I did a double recipe and that fit perfect in my food processor. 

Makes 1 Serving

• 1 medium sweet potato (Yam) peeled, cubed
• 1/4 medium red pepper
• 1 tsp finely grated ginger root

• 2 tsp miso paste mixed with  2 Tbsp hot water (OPTIONAL)
• 1 cup vegetable broth (or water)
• Braggs Aminos and or Himalayan Salt  (to taste)

Bring water to a boil, add the sweet potato; cook for 5 to 7 minutes and DRAIN.

Roast bell pepper on grill or gas stove top. Turn frequently until skin is evenly charred.  Place in bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel for 10 minutes. Peel skin under running water. Remove seeds. 

Place sweet potato, red pepper, ginger, miso  and broth in a blender or food processor, braggs and seasonings.  Cover with lid, blend until smooth. If consistency is to thick, add some water.
