         Turkey & Veg Meatloaf This is not just your regular old boring meatloaf. This delicious dish is full of nutrients leaving you satisfied and nourished. This dish is also great to sneak more veggies into your diet. You kids might not even realize they are eating spinach.  This recipe calls for ground turkey BUT probably 99.9% of the time I will make this with ground Elk or Deer. Because that’s what we have in the freezer. SO feel free to change up this recipe to add your preferred ground meat.   HERE IS THE  MACRO BREAKDOWN PROTEIN | Turkey + Eggs FAT | Egg yolks FIBER | Spinach, Green Peppers Related posts:Ultimate Grocery Shopping Guide…

    How Being Positive Helps us Stay Healthy

    January 12, 2016 / 1 Comment

    ​ Hi ,   I posted the above picture on instagram a while back and it is still one of my favorite sayings. There are so many beautiful reasons to be Happy! This statement is so very true. We have so many things in our lives to be happy about, even in the mist of hardship. We can’t just focus on the negative or the bad things that are happening around us. If we do we will just keep falling deeper into a negative mindset. Let’s change our mindsets to focus on the positive.  A negative mindset can be damaging to your health and fitness. Are you guilty of having a negative mind?…
