Cauliflower Tortilla
Made cauliflower tortillas tonight! Soooo gooood!
Pre heat oven to 375 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Break the florets off a small head of cauliflower and whip up in the processor til fine. Put in microwave safe bowl and nuke for 2min, stir and nuke for another 2min. Use a cheese cloth to squeeze out water (wear gloves, hot). Mix cauliflower with 2 eggs, cilantro, lime, salt & pepper. With your hands scoop a handful of the mixture and place on to the parchment paper. Mine could’ve made about 4. Bake for 10 – 12min and flip then bake for another 10min. To brown, place them in a pan for about 2min a side giving them a gentle press. Done. I put refried beans, taco meat, onions, chalula sauce and cheese on mine tonight.
If you love cilantro, add a ton of it, the flavor is amazing!
4 week client transformation
I’m really excited for my friend and client, Chandler, who I’ve been working with since late December. With goals of weight training, Chandler followed an exercise program for her to do on her own. She essentially did it on her own, I just gave her some tools =)
Training the Deadlift
