Spin

I love spinning.  The music is amazing, the teachers are terrific, and the workout is stellar! 
This past Saturday I went to spinning and loved every moment.
The things I love about spinning are:
  1. Group setting
  2. You can "pick your challenge" level
  3. The scale after class

Mac & Cheese Thursday

Today, I was worried.  I was worried that the peanut butter jar that I was cleaning to recycle would become a danger to a stranger.  Well, I wasn't that worried, but I really did wonder -- when the manufacturers melt this down and recycle it, will the residual peanut butter properties cause an allergic reaction for someone?  Think on that one!

With all of the worry running through my brain I needed comfort food - quickly!  Here's what I came up with:
Cauliflower Mac & Cheese

What you need:
1/4 Head Cooked Cauliflower
1 Cup Cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 Cup Reduced Fat Shredded Cheddar Cheese (I used Cabot, but that could just be a Vermont thing!)
1 Tbsp of Reduced Fat Parmesan Cheese

With an immersion blender, puree the cooked cauliflower until smooth.  Add cheeses and pasta.  Throw into an oven at 350 degrees if you're into the crunchy top like me!

Enjoy!!!!!
