TMJ

TMJ, those 3 little letters cause a HUGE amount of pain! Yesterday afternoon I started getting a headache. My contacts had been bothering me all day, so I thought it was that. I didn't realize until dinner time that it was stemmed from my jaws. UGH! That is the worst pain ever. It feels like somebody is stabbing a knife in your ears. I went and got my Ease cream and rubbed it all around my jaw and around the back of my ear. Within 5 minutes, I was pain free. Thank you Plexus Ease. Do you suffer from TMJ? Want to try some Ease Cream to see if it helps you? Let me know! It is WONDERFUL stuff!!!! And all natural! www.shopmyplexus.com/sherieadkerson

Check out what Christine has to say: “I started my journey to get healthy at the end of April of 2013. At the time I had just given birth my perfect surprise 2 months earlier. I had also just just been through the what seemed the hardest year of my life, which including losing my Poppa to cancer and my step mother in December of 2011, ten months before my Poppa’s passing.I knew after I laid eyes on Aaron, my son, that I never wanted my health to be an issue.
Plexus entered my life via my sister Erin . She couldn’t shut up about it, and that much hasn’t changed. When I started I just wanted to lose some weight, little did I know that was the tip of iceberg of how it would help me.

I have now lost 100 pounds. And each day I feel like I have been given a chance to the life that I was meant to live. In addition to the weight, my anxiety is now all but gone, no more migraines, no more sleepless nights, and no more sugar and carb cravings.
I take Slim and 1 boost and 2 xfactor in the morning. Probio 5 and bio cleanse at night. Recently added block 2 a day.
I also am able to run, an almost daily occurance, which I have never been able to do in my life. So as I celebrate this milestone, I am so happy but I am more excited to see what is next for me because now I feel the sky is the limit!!!!!”

Slow Baked Chicken and Potatoes

The first day of my menu, I had chosen this recipe called Slow Baked Chicken and Potatoes.  I'm not giving you the link yet because I am not giving it a great review.  I am giving you the recipe to try if you would like.

It was half good.  The chicken and bacon was delicious.  But, the potatoes were not done.  they were still crispy, and that was not the texture I was looking for.  We even tried cooking it an extra hour.

Now, I have not given up on this recipe.  I am going to try it again next month, but I am going to cook it all day in the slow cooker/crockpot instead of for just 2 hours in the oven.

And now, the recipe so you can try it if you want.  Just cook it longer so the potatoes are cooked.

Doesn't it look delicious????

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 lb potatoes, thinly sliced
• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 5 boneless skinless chicken breast
• 4-6 bacon slices, uncooked
• 1 1/2 cup chicken stock
• salt and pepper

Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 300F. Grease an 11" cast iron skillet with olive oil. Set aside.
2. Scrub the potatoes.  Thinly slice the potatoes and onions. Mince the garlic and finely chop the thyme and rosemary.
3. In a large bowl combine the sliced potatoes, onions, minced garlic, fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper and arrange layers of the potatoes in the prepared skillet.
4. Place the chicken breasts on top of the potatoes and finish with pieces of roughly chopped bacon.
5. Pour the chicken stock in the skillet and season with salt and pepper.
6. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and place in the heated oven. Bake for 2 hours without opening the oven.
7. After two hours, open the oven and remove the aluminum foil.
8. Turn he broiler on and cook for few more minutes until the potatoes slices and chicken get a little brown color.

Healthy Breakfast

Its Blueberry season here in the south.  It may be blueberry season everywhere, I don't know, I've never been out of the south.  So, with all of these blueberries, I try to find anything I can to make using blueberries.

I have been wanting to try baked oatmeal for a while now.  And when I found this blueberry baked oatmeal, I just knew I had to try it.

OH MY GOODNESS YA'LL HAVE TO TRY THIS!

This is what mine looked like after I baked it and tried a piece.  You know I have to try it before I let you know how it is.  LOL!

I cannot say it enough.  TRY IT!!!!!

Chop, Chop, Chop

So, this will be my last follow up post on the July menu.  After today, I will be posting recipes and giving reviews.

This is a time saver, not necessarily a money saver.  However, when you buy a bag of carrots, in my house anyway, if they are not chopped up and frozen, then half of them get tossed after a few weeks.  Now, this wouldn't be a problem if I composted, but right now I don't.

So, in order to save myself some prep time, I chop up my veggies and freeze them.  Check out this video of how and why I do this.

Have a good one!

Buying in Bulk, Saving Money

Here is a follow up post to yesterday's video blog.  We buy in bulk to save money.  Then, we come home and split up the meat into smaller packages.

Check out the video to see how we do it. 

Have a Great day!
