Indoor Cardio

Alexa Brown

Who is ready for this intense workout?  Let's start this year off right with some intense body burning exercises!  Try to do this each day this week.  Grab a timer and see if you can improve your time each day.  I always work harder when I have a goal in mind.  If I know that I am trying to beat my previous times, I will work hard to do it.  I know you will too.  For some people it is just much too cold to be outside getting your cardio sessions in.  So, here's a way to still get your...

Baked Green Beans

Alexa Brown

I love vegetables so much!  I am always looking for new ways to enjoy the same vegetables I eat.  Green beans are one of the best!  They are packed full of vitamins too.  I enjoy eating them raw, steamed, baked or stir-fried.  Though, I like green beans all of those ways, I love them baked in this recipe.  I combined some of my favorite things and it made a delicious recipe.  It would also be a fantastic side dish for Thanksgiving!!  Follow it below! Ingredients 1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, rinsed and ends cut off 4 cloves garlic, minced...
