Well, hey! How was your weekend? I had a pretty low-key, but fun weekend. It included lots of yummy foods, cool new bars and seeing the new Annabelle movie, which was terrifying and awesome at the same time.
As per usual on Mondays, today is another recipes, round-ups and Q+A post. This is where I showcase some interesting links from around the web, throwback to some old posts of mine, answer your anonymous questions and highlight some yummy recipes I find on the web!
Around the web:

Q: What is your nutrition and training coaching style like?
A: I recently shared my answer to this on my Instagram! My goal as a coach isn’t to give you a plan and tell you to “do this” with no questions asked. I want you to learn. I want you to work yourself. This is an educational experience for yourself. Why? So that you don’t have to keep paying me forever and you can do it on your own! So, if you are looking for a strict cookie cutter diet plan, we would not be a good fit for each other. In terms of what my coaching includes specifically, you can read more on that here!
On This Fit Chick:

What I want to eat right now:

Now you tell me…
What’s your favorite fruit to add to salads?
Which is your favorite: Scallops or Shrimp?
Where do you shop for groceries?
Thanks for including my Pumpkin Muffin Recipe! I want to make more of them right now, lol. And I LOVE those Larabar Bites when I’m craving something sweet. Happy Monday!
Of course!! It’s a delicious one- had to share!
My sister saw the new Annabelle movie over the weekend too and basically had the exact same comments that you did!
I actually really do not like fruit on salads at all. I totally prefer shrimp to scallops – I like scallops, but sometimes they have a weird consistency for me. But I think I could eat about 100 shrimp in one sitting and be perfectly content. We usually shop for groceries at Kroger, a little Italian market by us, or Costco. And sometimes the farmer’s market if we are lucky. I really wish we lived closer to a Whole Foods and/or a Trader Joe’s!
Hah, I used to hate scallops because of that too. One day, I randomly craved them and the rest is history. I wish I had a membership to Costco!
Hi Carrie! Happy Monday! I go to Safeway, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods each week. So many grocery stores! I happen to love the finds at Trader Joe’s the best though! 🙂
TJs wins my heart too!
How did I miss the flavored Stevia packets?! I need to get my hand on those.
As far as fruit on salads, I love grilled pineapple. The juices make a sort of dressing! Between scallops and shrimp… I can’t even choose. I love them both! I can choose a grocery store though – I’m a Whole Foods junkie!
Have a fabulous week!
Oh my gosh, grilled pineapple- YES!
For salads I like blueberries or apples. Love scallops ( and shrimp). I shop at Trader Joe or Smart & Final. Thanks for all your great ideas.
I love Trader Joe’s too!
