Sometimes you just want breakfast for dinner. When I was a single gal that was often a bowl of cereal. There’s nothing better than a bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats for dinner!<\/p>\n

Last night I was supposed to have dinner with a friend but something came up so Michael and I made a spicy <\/span>sausage frittata for dinner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nInstead of green chilies I used jalapenos. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nSlice the sausage into small rounds and cook in a skillet. Layer them on the bottom of a glass baking dish. Cook the onions in the skillet and add to the dish.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nMix 6 eggs in a bowl and then pour on top of the sausage and cheese. Salt and pepper to season. We used white cheddar instead of regular cheddar cheese.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWhile you’re waiting for it to bake–20 minutes or so, enjoy a glass of wine and relax.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI estimate the calories in this to be about 600 a serving. It’s packed with protein, it’s easy, and it was very spicy!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIt was a good comfort-food meal. I started to think of some other yummy frittatas we can make.\u00a0 I see some goat cheese and artichoke frittatas in my future.<\/p>\n

\nHow do you stay motivated during times of struggle?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

When life gets hard, do you find yourself slipping into old habits? Old ways? What’s the first thing to go by the wayside when life just throws lemons at you?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For me the one constant in my life no matter what stressful, maddening, saddening struggle might happen to me is exercise. My exercise routine is pretty structured and I’m so used to it that it’s not a struggle for me to find motivation to work out. Plus exercising almost always makes me feel better. It’s an amazing stress-reliever. And it helps to have a partner (and friends) in my life that is active as well.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The first thing to go for me, though, is the food aspect. I slip back into old comforts of eating sugary desserts to deal with stress and feelings. Luckily the exercise that I do balances that out so that I don’t usually see much (or any) gain on the scale. But it’s not desirable. I don’t WANT to eat my feelings. It’s a struggle that I will probably always have in my life.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

QUESTION: How would you answer those questions?<\/strong><\/em>
