Amazing salmon recipe & grocery shopping list "basics"

 Hi Everyone! Happy #Fitness Friday!! We hope everyone is having an amazing week.

Today is fitness outside the box. Grab you gal pal and buy a fitness groupon and try something different like indoor surfing, crossfit or a boot camp class.

Today I’m posting a basic grocery store shopping list and a clean dinner recipe.

Salmon Scaloppini with Almond Orzo

The almonds add a sweet nuttiness to the orzo while the capers and lemon give a tangy punch to the simple skillet-cooked salmon. It’s a complete meal with fiber, protein, and vitamin E.

Ingredients: Orzo, butter, sliced almonds, salmon, lemons, capers

Calories: 369

Recipe Ingredients

Orzo

Butter

Sliced almonds

1 (7-ounce) salmon fillet, cut into 1/4-inch-wide slices

Lemon juice

Drained capers

Preparation

Cook 1/2 cup orzo according to package directions; drain, reserving 1/2 cup liquid. Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brown 2 tablespoons almonds; set aside. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Sauté on both sides until done. Divide orzo and salmon between 2 plates. Add reserved liquid to skillet with 2 tablespoons juice and 1 tablespoon capers. Bring to a boil. Stir in 3 teaspoons butter and almonds. Spoon over plates.

Here is a basic starter shopping list to give you an idea of what to buy for basic low calorie meals.

Vegetables

 Lettuce, Spinach, Broccoli, Cabbage, Tomatoes, Yams/Sweet Potatoes, Bell Peppers, Onions (red and white), Mushrooms, Fresh Garlic, Zucchini, Asparagus, Carrots, Avocado (Technically a fruit, but treated as a veggie).

Fruits

Strawberries, Blueberries, Apples, Grapefruit, Grapes, Watermelon and Honeydew.

Dairy

Milk - 1% or non-fat, Cottage Cheese - low fat and plain yogurt.

Meats

Chicken - boneless skinless breasts - organic is best, turkey burger, salon and tilapia.

Have an amazing day!

Pro to Pro Talk! #MM

Pro to Pro Talk

Hey everyone! It’s Makeup Monday!!

Today we are going to have pro to pro talk. This is for professional makeup artist and aspiring makeup artist.

Over the years I have helped several artist with career direction and helping them avoid common mistakes that are made in the beauty industry.

I have listed my top ten mistakes to avoid or fix if you are still doing them…it’s never too late to changeJ

1)      Take care of yourself. Beauty and fitness go together like peanut butter and jelly. I know this is hard for a lot of people to hear but it’s the absolute truth. You are selling your services and yourself. When booking a job first impression is everything. I recommend wearing all black and simple makeup. Makeup that is too strong can scare your client away.

2)      Make sure your kit is legit. Try to stick to one or two cosmetic brands in your kit. If you have too much of a variety you will confuse your client and yourself. I like to carry one mainstream line and one line I can resell to my clients. Make sure your make is always clean and being replaced when needed.

3)      WEBSITES! One of the most important parts of the equation is to have a good looking website. One that is easy to navigate, tells a little bio about yourself. Try keeping verbiage to a minimum.

4)      Everyone needs a domain. It’s one of the cheapest things to buy yet people are still not doing it. I recommend buying your own name unless you are trying to start a company. You can get your new domain name to point at a site you already have.

5)      Professional pictures is a must. Not only do you need professional pictures and head shots of yourself you need to make sure your entire portfolio is professional as well. Save the iPhone shots for your social media and FB fan page.

6)      Keep it classy. To some people you think this would be obvious. When you are a professional hired for a job all the attention goes to your client. Remember you are getting paid very well to give them the 5 star treatment and they don’t want to hear about your wild escapades on their wedding day or photo shoot.

7)      Consistency is Key. Make sure you consistently do a phenomenal job. Treat every client like gold. Word of mouth gets you more business than any advertising you can buy.

8)      Return client calls right away. Allow your clients to reach you by text and email. If this is what you want to do full time you need to put your heart and soul into it.

9)      Get a professional email address. People there is nothing worse than a business card with a Hotmail or Gmail account on it. Register for email when you get a domain I promise you it will not break the bank.

10)  The business card. Must have this with website and phone number on it. It should be clean and not too busy. Always carry a lot on you and leave some behind at ever job you do.

Hope that helps. Feel free to leave comments or questions you may have. Have a great day!

Top 5 must have hair products

Okay so if you are a hair product junkie like myself you will love these products. I've tried several products of all ranges and I must say these give you great results and are worth the money.

1. HAIR SPRAY....yup it's big sexy hair work and play hair spray. It gives you great volume, no flaking and your style stays put with out feeling like a helmet.

2. LEAVE IN CONDITIONER..."It's a 10" spray leave in conditioner not only repairs your hair but makes it feel absolutely amazing. Simply take a shower spray about 4-5 sprays in your hair then air dry or blow dry.

3. BUMBLE AND BUMBLE "SURF SPRAY"...The ultimate beach spray! perfect for those loose beach waves. Just curl your hair and add a few sprays and tah dah!! Beach bombshell.

4. BED HEAD ROCKAHOLIC "DIRTY SECRET" DRY SHAMPOO... best dry shampoo. This dry shampoo makes your hair look clean and refreshed. Not only that, it's a great size. It will pretty much last you the whole month.

5. LOREAL PROFESSIONAL DEEP CONDITIONER.... this Loreal product intensely repair dry dull hair. It is a must have especially for the summer. All you need is a quarter size amount in your hands then work through the end up. Your hair just drinks it up. 

Those are my top five recommended must have hair products. I have personally tried them and swear by them to all my clients. Feel free to comment about the products and your personal reviews. Thanks!

DIY Bridal Hair

Hello Brides,

A lot of brides write in all the time or DIY bridal techniques and looks. I personally love the DIY ideas. I put together a collection of looks that are most requested and super easy. These hairstyles can be worn to an event, special occasion or your own wedding. It's great for savvy brides who are on a budget.

Feel free to send questions about any of these looks. Thanks!
