How are you all doing now that the season has officially started and we have played at least a few games? I'm not perfect, but have been trying my best with staying productive on those long nights and trying to plan out my meals so I have something healthy when dinner time rolls around. This meal could not have been easier! On Sunday I browned some ground turkey and then throughout the week I just threw it in with random veggies and made it work. On this particular night I was feeling pretty lazy and this is what resulted: I chopped up a cup of spinach (actually, let's be honest, I tore it with my hands...you don't have to wash a knife or cutting board that way) sauteed it with olive oil, ad
I love football season more than many others that I know. I love the crowds, the tailgates, the excitement, the cheers, the traditions, the edge-of-your-seat excitement!

Cooking for one is definitely one of my least favorite parts of being a coach's wife. It is SO easy to just fill up a bowl of popcorn or cereal and call it a night instead of having a delicious, nutritious meal. As you can see from my other posts, nutrition is something that is very important to me, and I've committed to eating balanced meals this football season, even though it's so much easier to just fill up a bowl with carbs!
