Bernie Salazar Interview + Giveaway

February 4, 2012 by Julie 2,651 Comments

Ryan, Sadie and I spent the remainder of our morning on a 3.5 mile hike on our favorite bear, alligator and snake-laden trails.

The wildlife we saw on today’s walk was limited to squirrels and lizards. Vicious beasts!

Lunch

On our way home from the trails, we ran a few errands and grabbed the necessary ingredients for homemade pizza. I think Ryan was a little jealous of my delicious looking veggie pizza from last night and he was craving pizza this afternoon.

When we arrived home, we prepared a pizza topped with spinach, pizza sauce, mozzarella, Italian chicken sausage and avocado.

We didn’t add the avocado until the pizza came out of the oven because we were unsure how it would hold up in 475-degree heat.

I ate three slices of the pizza along with a sliced apple.

Even after eating pizza two times in less than 24 hours, I feel like I could easily eat it again for dinner tonight.

You can never have enough of the good stuff!

Bernie Salazar Interview + Snack Smart Giveaway

Remember how I am partnering with Orville Redenbacher this month for their snack smart campaign? Well, I have one heck of a giveaway for you guys today from them. I wish I could win! It’s amazing!

As you may recall, through this campaign Orville Redenbacher set up a conference call where I was able to chat with former Biggest Loser contestant (and "at home winner") Bernie Salazar a few weeks ago. I passed along a bunch of the questions you guys submitted for him to answer back in January and he addressed a bunch of them in this video! 

Bernie Answers Your Health and Fitness Questions

Can’t you just tell he’s such a nice guy from that video? His energy and enthusiasm for healthy living simply sparkle!

And now for the giveaway!

This giveaway basically rocks and includes some amazing items from some of my favorite companies.

    There are so many to choose from but I’d have to say mine is probably nonfat plain greek yogurt with cottage cheese and strawberries. A little sweet and packed with protein! Although a close second would be apples and almond butter, yum 🙂

    I love to eat frozen grapes! I know they’re not incredibly healthy, since there’s a ton of sugar in grapes, but they’re delicious and better than ice cream!
