Fit Friday - Simple Artisan Bread and 10 Min Plyos

Another week, another fabulous Fit Friday.  Ruthie is here with another fantastic recipe to try out in the kitchen and after that we are talking 10 Min Plyos. Enjoy!

No-Knead Artisan Bread is so simple to make and tastes like it came straight from a bakery! 
 Enjoy this No Knead Artisan Bread by itself for a quick snack or as a delightful side to go with almost any meal! You'll love that this bread is fluffy and soft on the inside with a perfectly crunchy crust on the outside.
 The really cool thing is that there's NO oil in this bread... none!  You'd never believe it though because it's the most moist and fabulous crumb you've ever tasted!!  We also love to get creative with this recipe sometimes- check out our Parmesan Olive Artisan Loaf , Rosemary Parmesan Artisan Loaf, and  Sourdough Artisan Loaf!
 At our house, we love to make a few loaves at a time! There is nothing easier and more satisfying than having a yummy loaf of bread waiting for you and your kids when you all get home from your daily activities. My family usually cuts a slice, adds butter, and then homemade Peach Raspberry Freezer Jam. It makes for a simple, delicious, and quick snack!

We all love quick workouts, but maybe for our own reasons. There are days that we only have a few minutes and need something quick to do in order to start our day off right. There are days that you are killing it and just want a little something more to add to the mix. And there are days that you are just bored and need a lot of different things going to keep that boredom at bay. Whatever the reason may be we are adding another great little workout to add to your file box.

10 minutes of plyos!

Why plyos (plyometerics)? Because I love them, especially for a solid and effective short workout. Here are a few other reason:

• burn more fat
• boost athletic performance
• increase coordination
• get more done in less time
• get your heart rate up

So we have plenty of reasons. Now let's talk about the workout.

Have a wonderful Friday! 

Much Love and Peace~ Nichole and Ruthie
