When you started your fitness journey, what was your number one fear?

Today, we remember 343 firefighters and paramedics, 2,977 civilians, 23 NYPD officers, and 37 Port Authority Police Officers for the sacrifice they made to save lives.

We honor their bravery in running into a burning building and their courage in facing the unknown.

Today, we remember how American lives were changed forever, and how, in the face of adversity, we came together as a nation to confront evil.

Today, we remember the men and women who have lost their lives due to the lasting effects of 9/11.

Never forget.

🍕This is a healthier take on pizza ... made with portobello mushrooms as the “crust.”

Experiment with your favorite toppings!

TIP: Keep any leftover vegan “cheese” in a covered container in the fridge for other recipes. Delicious!

🍄Vegan Portobello Pizzas 🍄
(serves 4)
4 large portobello mushrooms
Olive oil
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 cup of your favorite pizza sauce
3/4 cup veggies or other favorites pizza toppings (diced onions, peppers, olives, etc)

For the “cheese” topping:
½ cup raw cashews
2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
½ tsp sea salt

Preheat your oven to 400ºF/200ºC. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems, and brush both sides with a small amount of olive oil, placing them on the baking sheet. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the top, and bake for 5-8 minutes.

While they are precooking, prepare the cheese topping: place the nuts, nutritional yeast, and salt in a food processor and pulse until it turns into a parmesan-like consistency.

Remove the mushrooms from the oven and top with pizza sauce, toppings, and a sprinkle of vegan cheese. Place back in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the toppings are tender.

🍊 This recipe is perfect for a quick weekday meal … but it’s also fancy enough for company!

Pair it with a salad and quinoa for a perfect meal.

Orange Poached Salmon
(makes 4 servings)

4 skinless salmon fillets (about 1 lb/450 grams)
1 lemon, juiced
1 orange, juiced
2 Tbsp coconut aminos
1 cup of water
2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 Tbsp melted grass-fed butter
¼ tsp each salt and pepper

Rinse the salmon and pat it dry.

Squeeze juice from the lemon and orange into a small bowl and add coconut aminos. Stir to combine, and measure out ¼ cup (60 ml) of the mixture. Set aside (you’ll use it after on the cooked fish later).

Pour the remaining mixture and the water into a large skillet, bringing it to a boil. Add the fish and reduce the heat to medium. Cover the skillet and simmer for 8-12 minutes, until the salmon begins to flake.

While the salmon cooks, make the dressing by combining the remaining juice/coconut aminos mixture, parsley, melted butter, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Remove the salmon from the heat and serve drizzled with the dressing.

Bon appétit! 👩‍🍳

👨‍🍳What’s your favorite way to eat CHICKEN (besides wings!)?
If you’re like a lot of people, chicken is one of your top go-to’s for protein.
👉 But it’s actually packed with other surprising benefits beyond its protein content.
For example, it’s full of the amino acid “tryptophan” which can boost your serotonin level…
Which is your brain’s “feel-good” hormone that helps boost your mood and fight anxiety.
It’s also rich in vitamins and minerals ...
✅ And has a hefty dose of choline, which is important for memory, mood, and muscle control.
