Cooking healthy can be fun and delicous!!

Today's gym workouts were back, biceps, and the daily cardio (45 mins today) but I also added 1/2 hour in between my cardio and weight lifting for relaxing and recover in the spa and sauna.

I was excited for today dinner because I love cooking new recipes. I decided to make five spice turkey lettuce wraps! Each wrap is topped with fresh basil, cilantro, shredded carrots, lil squeeze of lemon drop and a few drops of spicy nuoc mam to give it a lil kick! The turkey was made up with five spice powder, hoison sauce, ginger, red and green bellpeppers, and red onions with a lil heat from dried pepper flakes imported from VN!. It was delicous. I made enough tonlast for several meals!
