1 cup of quinoa to 2 cups of water- bring to a boil 15 minutes - set aside to cool (I placed mine in the fridge).

Liquid Ingredients (place in one bowl)

3 eggs.

1/2 cup of vanilla almond or flaxseed milk.

1/3 cup of honey
2 tablespoons of coconut oil.

Vanilla, cinnamon, and salt to taste .

Mix well.  Now make sure the Quinoa is cool because you do not want to cook the the eggs.

Slowly fold in the liquid mixture with the Quinoa.

Healthy and Yummy Snack

Sometimes you just want a healthy snack, right?

Snacking is okay as long as it's the right combination of  nutrients and it's  in moderation.

Apples - a wealth of vitamins,  and a great source of fiber. After all,  as a child I was told "an apple a day, keeps the doctor away."

Pumpkin Seeds - valued for the zinc.

Chia Seeds - Naturally  gluten / grain free. It has more calcium than a glass of  milk and it's great as an egg substitute.

Peanut Butter - Provides protein,  fiber,  vitamin E and it's a GOOD fat.

In a small  bowl I chopped up a small red apple, mixed in  with 2 tsp of peanut butter, chia seeds and pumpkin seeds... ENJOY!

My story... Christine Vidya.


Hi! My name is Christine Vidya and here is my story….

During my sophomore year of college I was diagnosed with Celiac disease, lost my father, lived in a toxic environment and I gained a lot weight.

I have turned it all around, got my fun, healthy active lifestyle and want to pass it forward to others.

So please join me on this continuing journey and experience to help others achieve their goals through a fun, healthy, active lifestyle.

Want to know more about me...

  • I'm probably like any mid-20 year old female, working a 9 to 5 career and wondering what is it that I should be doing. 
  •  I have been through hardships, but most importantly I have overcome and accomplished MANY of goals through a  POSITIVE MINDSET and being CONSISTENT.
  • I have turned around what may have been negative and found the POSITIVE in it.
  • I have created a HEALTHY ACTIVE LIFESTYLE through COMMUNITY, TEAM WORK and NUTRITION.
  • No matter what YOU are doing there is time to be HEALTHY, and ACTIVE. There is no such thing as I CAN'T, or I DON'T have TIME and MONEY.
 TAKE TIME FOR YOU!
