Recipe: Baked Eggs with Kale and Tomatoes

It's time to get healthy again! I've not been eating that great lately, life was getting in the way, and with the new job, working full time didn't help. But no more excuses.

After my workout tonight, I had a protein shake with blueberries and kale. It was yummy!

But I needed some dinner! So I wanted to make something quick and healthy. 
I've seen a baked dish with spinach and eggs on pinterest, but I didn't have spinach, just kale. So I changed it up a little bit.



So here you go:

Good news - Gute Neuigkeiten

Ok, this has to change. I know... I am posting not enough and way to late, but I will try to get better. I promise.

So, let's get to it: I got a new job!!! Yes, I'm super excited. It's a full time job with a company here in Jacksonville. I work in an office, have my own desk and really nice coworkers. I have to figure out what the ruling is about blogging about them, so that's why I'm not mentioning the name right now, but it's not a secret. If you want to find out more, just send me an email, call, or text :)

My first week at my new job is already over, and it was great. I learned new things, and was able to help out a lot :) And I get to wear cute outfits to work, here's two of my outfits during my first week:

St. Patrick's Day in Savannah!

This year, we ended up in Savannah, GA for some of the St. Patty's Day celebrations. It was one of those things that had been on our bucket list. We actually didn't think that it would happen this year, due to work and busy schedules but then we both were able to have Friday - Sunday off and thought, why not?


Hotel prices were pretty outrages for Saturday, so we decided to stay Friday - Saturday. We asked a friend of ours to join us and found a great deal for The Westin on the river, across from all the action. There's even a ferry to take you to the other side for free.

Recipe: Healthy Banana Bread - Rezept: Gesundes Bananenbrot

This banana bread is amazing! I've been making it for a few weeks, and it's gone by the time I remember that I want to take a picture of it for my blog post.

I'm not even sure how I found it anymore, but here's the link to Dairy Free Chick and the original recipe post: http://www.dairyfreechick.com/paleo-coconut-banana-bread/

What makes this banana bread healthy is that it has no added sugar, coconut flour is used instead of regular flower, and it doesn't even include dairy (not that I think dairy isn't healthy). 

The first time I made it, I really wasn't so sure. The consistency of the dough is really different from baking with regular flour. But once I took the first bite (when it was cool) - I fell in love! Since we've pretty much eliminated all bread and wheat from our diet, breakfasts have been really hard for me some mornings. I go workout early, and don't have time in between to fix breakfast. Sometimes I don't even go home, and even though I love the egg muffins, they just taste better warm... Plus, the no sugar thing is really not that easy either... 
But once I discovered this recipe... well, let's just say, it really has helped!

I eat it for breakfast, as a snack, or have a little slice in the afternoon with a coffee! Josh, my husband, loves it too! He actually has breakfast if we have some banana bread in the house. He likes to have his with milk (or a protein shake). 

So here it is:
