Here is another recipe from the Ultimate Reset, which I went through last year. Almost every recipe that I had during that 3 week period was totally new and I will be honest, I wasn’t sure how I would like the beets in this one. While they still have a bit of an “earthy” taste, […]
The Nutrition Guide that accompanies the P90X2 fitness programs is one of my favorites due to all of the awesome recipes that are contained within.
