Why we love Easy Homemade Lasagna Recipe

My mom was pretty innovative back in the 1970's... she was one of the first to come up with the idea of NOT cooking the noodles before making a pan of lasagna. She'd make lasagna with hard noodles, drizzle water around the edges of the pan, and then bake it off! It was genius!   Even in the 1990's when I was newly married and making it her quick and easy way--people were always amazed that was so simple to make and tasted better too.

Fit Friday with Nichole

 We are starting January off with a bang in my neck of the woods. Two days of online learning due to massive amounts of teachers and students being sick. PTSD is kicking in and I need to calm down. Started with a bit of mediation and decided I needed a workout this morning instead. Can't seem to stop the brain from racing or keep even kind of focused. So let's hit Fit Friday with a serious sweat sesh and try to at least wear out the brain for a minute.

This week we are doing a jump roping circuit. This is a workout I can do from home since the kids are home and it is a bit harder to sneak to the gym. 

Why jump rope? I am not a kid anymore. And this isn't recess, but I sure wish more people treated it as recess.

7 Benefits of Jump Rope You Might Not Know About

  • 1 Melts Fat Fast. Jump rope is the single most efficient way to burn calories. ...
  • 2 Reduces Anxiety. ...
  • 3 Makes You Smarter. ...
  • 4 Better Posture. ...
  • 5 Increases Bone Density. ...
  • 6 Prevents Injuries. ...
  • 7 Easier to See Results.

If those reasons can't convince you to try out jump roping then run in place, high knees, burpees, or any other from of cardio you want to give a shot. Just make sure you are getting your heart rate up. Enjoy and stay sane!
