🔥ABSolutely Exciting March News⚡️

Sweet friends,

We are so excited to help you transform during March! Spring is almost here, March will be all about maximizing your whole body health. Commit to reaching your goals and filling out that ABSolutely awesome March calendar!

With Spring Break in full swing, it may feel like exercise is not an option. But don’t worry— we have plenty of workouts you can do anywhere, with or without equipment! Check them out on our app HERE, website HERE, and YouTube channel HERE.

Even during the busiest weeks of the year, you CAN stay on top of your nutrition. Let meal prepping at the beginning of each week help you stay accountable and on track! We are kicking off March with a new salad recipe that is healthy, delicious, and nutritious. The Baked Chicken Kale Apple and Quinoa Salad will be a family favorite and is easy to prep— try it out and let us know what you think!

Baked Chicken Kale Apple and Quinoa Salad

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb chicken breast

  • 1/2 cup tricolor dry quinoa

  • 6 cups slightly packed chopped kale (it will take about 1 1/2 bunches. Remove thick ribs before chopping, 6 oz chopped)

  • 2 crisp sweet apples, cored and chopped* (I used gala apples)

  • 1 cup walnuts, lightly toasted and roughly chopped

  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries or rasberries

  • 4 oz goat cheese, crumbled

Dressing Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup olive oil

  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

  • 2 Tbsp honey

  • 1 1/2 tsp dijon mustard

  • Salt to taste

Instructions:

  • Bake the chicken breasts: Place in the oven on 400 degrees for 35 minutes

  • Cook quinoa and cool: Cook quinoa according to directions on package and cool completely. 

  • Whisk dressing ingredients: While quinoa is cooling, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, dijon and salt in a jar or bowl. 

  • Pour 3/4 dressing over kale, chill: Add kale to a salad bowl, whisk dressing once more then pour 3/4 of the dressing over kale and toss until kale is evenly coated. Cover bowl and chill 15 minutes (adding the dressing and letting it rest helps soften kale a bit).

  • Toss in remaining mix-ins and dressing: Remove salad from refrigerator, add apples, quinoa, walnuts and cranberries. Pour remaining dressing over salad then toss. Add goat cheese and toss just lightly. 

  • Serve or store covered in refrigerator for up to 4 hours (see notes).

This salad is filled with so many amazing ingredients to nourish your body! Olive oil and walnuts provide healthy fats; these are essential to give you energy and support cell growth. Chicken provide us with protein, which is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood. Quinoa is a gluten-free, high protein, plant-based food that provides smart carbs, fiber, and protein. Kale is one of our favorite superfoods because it is rich in vitamins K, A and C, along with other vital nutrients. The health benefits of kale include detoxification, heart support, cancer prevention and a number of others. Apples help the digestive system, increase energy, and keep the doctor away🤩

NEW Bible Study

After an incredible 6-week Bible Study where we read through Rhythms of Renewal by Rebekah Lyons, we were inspired to continue diving into the Word and invest in our relationship with the Heavenly Father. We are so excited to start a study focused 1&2 Kings, called Trustworthy, by Lysa Terkeurst. Join us in “exploring the deeply applicable Scriptures that will teach us how to truly trust God.”

In this study you will learn to:

  • Identify and challenge doubts in the one true God.

  • Loosen your grip of trying to control people and circumstances in your life

  • Explore how the Old Testament applies to our lives today.

  • Learn to trust in the goodness and faithfulness of God.

This study will start on March 5th, from 12:00-1:00pm and meet in the TransFit studio. Sign up on the APP for this FREE community bible study.
