New Year’s Countdown!

With Feast-mas over, I now have 10 days of vacation until I go back to work on January 5. My plans for that time? Working my tail off at the gym and eating well so I start the new year right. If I wait until January 1st, I’ll probably get slowed down at the gym by all the new year’s resolutioners. It’s so easy to give up when all the machines are taken and all the lanes in the pool are closed. None of this for me! I have ten days to get the gym and cooking and eating healthy …

Healthy Meal: Grilled Swordfish with Couscous and Salad

I haven’t posted a healthy meal in a very long time, mostly because I’m only home two or three days a month lately. The rest of my time is spent in various hotel rooms with no kitchenettes or other cooking methods. However, I am sick and tired of the weight I’m gaining from eating out all the time and asking for steamed veggies and getting them drenched in butter “because I’m not allergic.” So how am I able to cook this meal? With a little inspiration from WikiHow, I’ll show you. First, a quick list of things I brought from …

Healthy Meal: Grilled Swordfish with Moroccan Charmoula

I had some leftover swordfish, so I went browsing for recipes on Food Network. It seemed like almost every recipe was citrus-y, but I wanted something different since I just did a citrus swordfish on Thursday. I finally found this recipe, which has some savory Moroccan flavors. Recipe notes:I had a craving for potatoes since I was good and avoided the buttery potatoes my friend ordered and offered me at brunch this morning, so I decided to make mashed potatoes to go with this fish. Chopped the potato pretty finely, then popped them into some boiling water for about 15 …

Healthy Meal: Grilled Swordfish and Spaghetti with Citrus Pesto

Tonight I wanted to eat really lightly, because I had pigged out a bit last night at a team dinner. I also knew I had some swordfish in the freezer, so I pulled out this recipe that I had saved a while ago. Even if you make it according to the directions, it’s pretty healthy, but I was able to make it even better. I paired it with some frozen mixed beans for a little extra veggie fix. Recipe notes: swordfishNo salt, no oil – just a little pepper and toss it on the Foreman. Swordfish cooks really quickly, so …

Healthy Meal: Spicy Shrimp and Bok Choy Noodle Bowl

I’ve made this recipe before and actually loved it, but now that I’ve discovered shiritaki noodles I thought I could cut some calories and make it even healthier. However, Daily Plate was having some problems when I tried to put this in, and it originally told me the recipe was 39 calories. I got ridiculously excited, and was disappointed when I came to my senses and realized that wasn’t possible. The server issues went away, and now it’s showing a more appropriate 158 calories. Not bad for a huge serving, but it’s too bad about the glitch because even 158 …
