  3. 3 WORDS. TOSTONES PROTEIN CUPS. Crispy, savory, and a taste of culture in every bite 🇩🇴🇵🇷🫶🏽✨ Because who said we have to stop eating our favorite foods to achieve our fitness goals??? Mi gente, save this for your next protein dish 🍽️ Shrimp 🍤 1. Season with oregano, garlic, adobo, sazón, onion powder, black pepper, lime 2. In a pan, sauté freshly minced garlic, red onion, red pepper, green pepper, and tomato in butter and olive oil 3. Stir until slightly soft, then add the shrimp 4. Cook for about 10-15 minutes on medium heat until it’s looking juicyyyy Guacamole 🥑 1. Dice tomato, red onion, and cilantro 2. Combine together and add avocado, lime and salt Green Sauce 💚 1. Add greek yogurt, cilantro, garlic cloves, lime, salt, black pepper and a splash of avocado oil to a food processor 2. Blend until smooth and drizzle-worthy. I prefer it as a runny consistency, but if you want it more creamy add more Greek yogurt/avocado Tostone Cup 🍽️ 1. Peel and cut tostones into pieces 2. Initially fry until golden, making sure not to overcook as well be frying again 3. Using a lime squeezer or deep tostone masher, add some avocado oil and mash small portions of the fried tostone pieces together to create the cup shape 4. Fry for the second time on medium heat, making sure to get a crunchy texture 5. Add salt to all cups, guacamole, shrimp with its sauce, and drizzle the green yogurt sauce on top 6. Garnish with some cilantro Comment 🍤 if you plan on trying this one out 👀 #dominicana #proteinsnack #musclemami #platano #dominicanfood

  2. Finally, taking ownership of my nutrition. Honestly, adjusting the way in which I eat has been a bit of a very rocky path for me . I struggled throughout my collegiate years and my first few years in NYC with purging and overly restrictive dieting that caused numerous fainting spells. I don’t say this cavalierly but I do want to emphasize the seriousness of those misguided days. Back then no matter how slim I was I never saw it that way . So, needless to say it’s been a very long healing path to acknowledging my resistance to overhauling my diet . However, I do believe it is a change for the better and I’m happy to see my body responding well so far . I’m far beyond the days of chasing skinny but I do want my body to reflect all the hard work that I put in at the gym. If that requires a little more mindfulness around my consumptions then I’m open to doing the work both physically and mentally to embrace this next level . Small changes I’m making to bring more awareness to this area of my life are . Limiting my alcohol consumption . I don’t like traditional spirits but I do love a chilled glass of wine ☺️. But saving it for special moments and avoiding places and situations where the default phrase would be let’s grab a drink. Taking more time to prepare in advance and trying to consume my protein. Like why is it soooooo freaking difficult to eat enough protein girlies ???? Journaling. I know this seems like it has nothing to do with nutrition but it wasn’t until I sat down with a pen and pad that I realized that this roller coaster ride for me could so easily be traced to my relationship with food in the first place . So yeah that’s where I’m at. This is the journey .
