My weekend at a glance

Good Afternoon!

I hope you have had a fabulous weekend!

I have been super busy this weekend and have accomplished so much!

Friday night, after work, I spent my evening cooking up a storm in the kitchen. I made grilled snapper with a mango and avocado salad and for dessert I tried out a new CLEAN berry cheesecake! See the recipe below!

RECIPE:
Ingedients:

60g almond meal
4 Tblspn Almond milk
200g Low fat Cottage cheese
125g Greek Yoghurt- No or Low fat.
1 Tblspn Stevia
2 Egg whites
1/2 Tblspn vanilla essence
180g Mixed frozen berries

PROCEDURE:

1. For the Crust. Mix almond meal and almond milk together and press into a round baking tray, bake for 10-20mins on 180C. Set aside.
2. Add cottage cheese, greek yoghurt, stevia, egg whites and vanilla essence and blend together until smooth.
3. Pour mixture over almond base.
4. Bake for an additional 30-40 minutes, until centre sets.
5. Place frozen berries on top of cake and allow to sit in the fridge/freezer until cold.

Saturday morning, I was up early for my usual morning run on the esplanade. Warm Summer's morning and glassy water made it perfect! I jogged 8km, taking me just under an hour.
I managed to squeeze in a sneaky 30 minute leg session at the gym, I trained alone and incorporated a lot of traditional 'girly' leg exercises- now I call them 'girly' as I am yet to see a male doing step ups :p I have included my workout and a couple of gym shots below:

JENNA'S 30 MINUTE GIRLY LEG WORKOUT

1- Cable Kick Backs. 3 sets of 15 reps. Increasing the weight by 2 plates each set.

2- Barbell side lunges. 3 sets of 15 reps each side.

3- Smith machine lunges. 3 sets of 15 reps each side. Increasing by 5kg each set.

4- Dumbbell step ups with 10kg DB's. 3 sets of 15 reps each leg.

Saturday evening, I let my hair down and went out for dinner with a colleague. I had the salt and pepper squid thai salad and a couple of glasses of sav blanc to unwind! It's all about balance!
I highly recommend The Wharf at Holdfast Shores, Glenelg if you are in South Australia. Very pleased with the quality of food and service!
