Coffee Talk
Am I the only one lacking motivation this week? Last week I went for runs, got my workouts in, tried some new recipes. This week my only motivation seems to be drinking coffee, eating tacos and drinking wine. How do you find balance? Share your tips in the comments.

Mexican Coleslaw
Mexican Coleslaw.
Fresh, quick, delicious lunch.
1 package coleslaw mix
1/2 can black beans drained and rinsed
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
1/2 cup chopped red onion
2 Tbs chopped jalapenos
2 Tbs dried cranberries. Garlic Salt
Cumin
Cayenne Pepper
Mexican Oregano
Dressing:
1 Tbs honey (or maple syrup if vegan)
1/4 olive oil
1 tsp ACV
Juice of 1/2 orange
Orange zest
Tapatio (a couple shakes)
Mix together salad ingredients. Mix dressing together in a bowl with a fork. Pour over coleslaw. Mix together. Serve with tortilla chips. Extra- precooked shrimp, sprinkle taco seasoning over and squeeze fresh orange juice, mix together and add to slaw.
Today, I had a page of coleslaw mix in my fridge that needed to be used. I am trying to avoid going to the store so it was a “what’s in the pantry” challenge. This quarantine feels like a continual episode of Chopped. I did not have lime but the fresh orange really made this light and refreshing with the spice and jalapenos. The cranberries added a nice pop that really played well off the other flavors. It made a delicious, light lunch to enjoy in the AZ sunshine. You can keep it vegan or add some shrimp for a more filling meal.
