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!

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!

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.

    My current favorite snack is called “Greek Yogurt Fruit Mess”. I dice up a Jazz apple and a sliced banana into a cereal bowl, then stir in Chobani Black Cherry, Cinnamon Apple, or Pineapple Yogurt until it’s well mixed through. I might also sprinkle a little bit of granola on top for a bit of extra crunch.

    Holy Y-U-M!
