Happy Fit Friday everyone! It is a new year and Ruthie and I are back to you. I am looking forward to another year of delicious recipes from Ruthie. This week she has brought a delicious oil free bread to add to your dinner menu.
Parmesan Olive Artisan Loaf is a no-knead bread dough that you'll fall in completely love with. . . in fact it's SO good you may want to make a double batch and freeze one!
One of my favorite parts about these kinds of breads (besides that fact that they are simple to make) is that there's no oil in them. But don't you worry. . . they're still moist and soft and amazing in every way!! I love my sourdough starter and it's been awhile since I've shared a sourdough recipe~ you can find my other sourdough creations HERE! Sourdough starters have been used all around the world for as long as bread making has been an art. When you savor the depth of flavor in this loaf and the beautiful transformation the loaf goes through as it rises, it’s quite remarkable. Beautiful.
Sourdough remained the usual form of leavening down into the European Middle Ages, it’s as old as the hills, in other words :) I hope you’ll jump on board with the Sourdough love that’s going on around here… it’s easy to make you’re own! This a great sourdough started recipe from King Arthur Flour with some awesome tips and tricks for taking care of it. It needs a little bit of love in the form of flour and water a couple times a week if it lives out of the fridge. If you keep it in the fridge then once a week will do it!
We are almost a week into the New Year, by now you have made your goals, you have found your path, and you are still excited about it all....hopefully. We are going to start this Fit Friday New Year with a great workout!

Parmesan Olive Artisan Loaf has got to make an appearance at your dinner table! You'll love it!!
In my classes, with my clients, and on my blog I am going back to the basics for the next few weeks. Keeping the movements simple while getting a great workout in at the same time!
This week's workout getting us running and throwing in some resistance moves. I love circuit training workouts, they are always good to have in your handbag of tricks for days where you want to get a lot done but don't have time to. All of our resistance moves are going to be solid moves that we all know and what is more basic then running, we grow up doing that.
If you are lucky enough to be outside right now hit a local track, I will be on the track in my gym or on a treadmill. All of our running distances will be .25 mile or 400 m, however you want to look at it. These are short which means they should be hard, push yourself!
