It's Time!

It's finally time to embark on a new adventure!

As you can see from my previous posts, dated back to 2008, I have been on an up and down roller coaster regarding my goal to be healthy and lose some weight. To date, I have obviously not done very well in the weight loss department. I've started exercising more over the last few months, but have not fully dedicated myself to being healthy. 

I am now 100% ready to pursue my goal!

Vegetable Frittata

A Frittata is an Italian version of an omelet. Often compared to a crust-less quiche or, in America, "scrambled eggs." The Vegetable Frittata is not only a healthy alternative to a high-carbohydrate and calorie filled breakfast, the Vegetable Frittata is also easy to make and can be reheated as leftovers for a nutritious breakfast every day of the week.
