One of my favorite fast food restaurants is Chipotle because I love their bowls. After eating them for so long, I realized I could probably make my own version that is a much healthier Chipotle bowl. Not to mention, I wouldn’t be eating out so much or even spending money. My healthier Chipotle bowl is so easy and great to make for a family. Here’s the recipe!
1 can of black beans
1 can of corn
1 tomato
1 yellow onion
1 jalapeño
1 avocado
1 cup rice
1 lb chicken
1 tablespoon paprika
1/2 tablespoon cumin
This seriously is such a healthier Chipotle bowl recipe. I love to prep this the morning of so that it’s ready to go whenever we want to eat. The recipe is simple enough that anyone can make it but also great because you can really mix and match. Meals like this are great for families because there’s something for everyone!

I can’t believe I’m writing this as we head back into September. Summer is one of my favorite times in the year but I struggle with getting back into a routine come September. It’s nice to not have as much pressure as the normal year has and to allow yourself to actually enjoy your time. With so much rest and relaxation, it makes it hard to get back in the swing of things. I also think this year with all of the stay at homes, getting back to school and work will be that much harder. Here are some ways that help me in getting back into a routine.
I think this one is easier said then done. Once you truly get into the routine of things, this makes life easier. Having meals and outfits already planned just takes stress out of your week. I can’t tell you how much time I spend in the morning finding an outfit if I don’t plan it before hand. I also think the same came be said with dinners because by the time you figure out what to make, it’s just easier to order out.
We all are glued to our phone’s but we don’t take advantage of the calendar’s we can have on it. I personally have Apple products so everything is streamlined together but you can also use Google calendar the same way. As soon as you add something to your phone calendar, it gets on your computer calendar and vice versa. This makes planning easy. Everything is in one place and you don’t have to worry about ruining your planner by crossing things out.
This is one I still struggle with. I feel like as soon as fall comes, I need to be insanely productive and just get stuff done. While this is a good mindset, sometimes I’m not nice to myself about it and make myself feel guilty. Do what you need to do but remember to take time for yourself to relax and hang out. It’s good for your mental health to take a break every once in awhile.
These tips seriously help me getting back into a routine really all year round. I love the times that I get to rest and recharge but getting back to work is so so exciting. Having the time off hopefully gets you inspired to get back to work with a clearer mindset.

There is no better feeling than eating a salad made entirely from your own garden. I’ve been really obsessed with knowing exactly where my ingredients are coming from lately so this salad recipe is a culmination of that. There’s a secret ingredient to this summer salad ingredient and it’s a chopper. Getting salads into bite size pieces not only makes it easier to eat but I swear it makes it taste that much better.
The salad chopper I have is from Amazon and you can find it here. I absolutely love it because you literally throw everything into a bowl and then just take the chopper and go to town. Chopped salads are so good and a great way to get all of your nutrients in without feeling like you’re eating too much. Here’s the recipe!\
Greens of your Choice (I love spring mixes with spinach)
Hard boiled egg
Tomatoes
Avocado
Red Onion
Cucumber
Protein (sometimes I add chicken, or bacon, or chickpeas)
Pepita Seeds
*fun add in is cheese (I like a cheddar)
Dressing of your choice
I started off chopping salads by just trying to chop everything whole however it is good to cut everything up a little. This really helps to even out everything and make it all the same size. I also was a huge over-chopper. I would just keep going until it was small pieces but everything lost its integrity. Make sure to use a big bowl so there’s room and just put everything in and chop. Add in your dressing last, mix and enjoy!
I love making chopped salads like this one. It’s a great salad recipe if you have produce that’s starting to look iffy so you’re not wasteful. Another awesome thing about salad in general is you can really customize it so that everyone in your house can make their own! The more toppings the better for a salad in my opinion so happy chopping!

For me, working out never was that fun. I never really found anything that really spoke to me or made me feel as great as everyone says you’ll feel. A real spark came when I discovered the Melissa Wood Health method and her app. Her workouts became game changing for me and inspired a whole new perspective on working out and getting in movement each day.
One thing that initially drove me to try her workouts was finding her on Instagram. She had a 10 minute video and after doing it, I was so freaking sore! I never felt that kind of soreness before from other workouts so I knew I was on the right track. She does a mix of pilates and yoga flows which always uses every muscle in your body. I leave each workout feeling like I used and toned my entire body, not just one area.
I also love the convience of her workouts. She often talks about how important movement is each day, even if its just a few minutes. When I started her workouts, I didn’t believe that but now I’m doing her flows at least once everyday, sometimes even twice. Melissa has the calmest voice and is so encouraging during the tough workouts.
On the app, all of her flows state the length directly on them so it makes it so easy for me to fit something in everyday. I have no excuses when she has something that’s only 8 minutes and is seriously killer. Her method really changed my entire perspective because I can get in something simple each day but take out something that will better me. I swear I have never looked at a workout routine like that before ever.
The Melissa Wood Health method talks about mind and body , which I have absolutely noticed a difference in myself. The app is only $100 for the entire year (what a deal) and she posts her weekly workout schedule on her website www.melissawoodhealth.com in case you want to follow along. I generally just choose whatever I’m feeling that day or base it on time.
Whether you’re looking for beginner workouts or challenging yoga and pilates flows, this app has it all. I highly recommend checking it out for the 7 day free trial because I am so sure that you will become as obsessed as I am.

I cannot believe that we are halfway through the summer!! Time is flying by and before we know it, fall unfortunately will be here. I decided to compile the things I’m loving from July into this post since they are definitely still relevant as we head into August. These things I’m loving are from all different categories like lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and I definitely couldn’t live without them this summer.
I have been juicing pretty much everyday since summer started and my NutriBullet seriously is amazing. I decided to not get a juicer because I already have this and to be honest, I feel like this is all you need if you’re just making a few juices instead of a big batch. This is also great for my acai bowls this makes awesome smoothies too.
This stuff is seriously AMAZING. It is only 15 calories and 2 grams of sugar per serving which is game changing. I love coffee for the caffeine but I do not like it black so I always have to add some sort of sweetener to it. This stuff is not only really yummy but its thick and creamy so it’s almost like I got a fancy coffee at home. It’s made from almond milk and coconut milk so it is dairy free and delicious.
I mentioned that I got this in my Sephora Skincare Haul and I am now obsessed. This is a really great moisturizer but it also does tighten and firm your skin. I’ve been using it on the back of my thighs and my booty and seriously have noticed a major change. I only got this as a free birthday gift and I am absolutely going to be purchasing the full size.
I talked about my love of planners in a post last summer which you can find here, but this planner is the one I truly love. For me, I don’t need one page per day but I do like the idea of scheduling times throughout the day and this mini Day Designer does just that. I got this at Target for $14.99 and it seriously helps me stay so organized.
I just had to add a show because this is just too good. I thought Gossip Girl was amazing until I watched Dynasty. GG will still be my favorite but this is a definitely close second. I binged this in like 2 days and can’t wait for new episodes hopefully when Covid leaves!
This was a splurge purchase but something I had my eye on for awhile. I was more motivated to purchase this because of Covid but I don’t regret it because it is so great. Nintendo games like Mario Kart and Animal Crossing are my fav so this was a great purchase and also a great way to escape from the world for a little each day. I love that you can play it hand held or on your TV because I can put something on in the background and still get a game in. Seriously one of my favorite things I’m loving.
Moving right into fitness, I actually purchase this treadmill from Amazon really early on in out stay at home. I had my eyes on a treadmill for so long and I finally purchased it. It is a great way to get your cardio in each day and still get to work, listen to something, or watch a show. I use this a few days a week on top of my workouts to really get that heart going and get a great sweat in.
This was a game changer once I discovered Melissa Wood’s app and workouts. I actually heard about her from a few YouTubers but I am seriously so obsessed with her and her flows. She does a mix of pilates and yoga which is exactly what I love to do. Her app has seriously made me want to workout and get some movement in each day, which prior to this I had been struggling with staying consistent in my workouts.
All of these things I’m loving are seriously so awesome and have helped me kick my summer off to a great start. They are great for summer but also for all year long because they are just seriously awesome. Let me know your July favorites in the comments below!
