Today’s post is  fun one! I’m excited to be sharing with y’all my daily wellness routine with Walmart! Every morning I begin with taking all of my vitamins — I take a daily probiotic to increase my gut health, a packet of Emergen-C {contains Vitamin C, Zinc, etc.}, Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin, & Nails Vitamins, and lastly, an overall multivitamin {I love this Vitafusion brand}.  For 2018, I think I’m going to add Fish Oil on the list!

I always receive questions about my fave supplements to take pre and post-workout.  To begin, I always drink a glass of pre-workout.  I love C4 original, but C4 ripped is also great if you don’t want creatine in it! Many of you know this, but I LOVE my Scivation Xtend BCAAs.  I drink these during my workout to fuel those long leg days.  Post-workout, I enjoy some type of protein bar or shake within 30 minutes of working out.  Oh Yeah! One bars are seriously delicious!  They’re typically hard to find, but Walmart carries a bunch of their flavors.

My daily multivitamins and supplements are all available on Walmart.com.  It’s sometimes difficult to find a place that sells *everything* you need all in one spot, but luckily, Walmart has each item to fuel my fitness needs and helps you keep your New Year’s Resolutions.

I also love heading to Walmart to snag my organic foods for meal prep! Meal prep is such a great way to stay on track every week, especially when you begin at the start of the year.  I typically go to Walmart every Sunday night.  I’ll snag my ingredients for everything that I’m making for the week {as well as any vitamins or supplements that I’m running low on} and then cook everything on Monday! Package them in individual containers for each meal to ensure that you aren’t overeating or tempted by something else in the fridge/freezer.

Here’s the recipe for my cauliflower fried rice and my weekly workout routine is below!

Ingredients:

1 Bag Cauliflower Pearls

1 Bag Cauliflower Hash {includes broccoli & carrots}

1 White Onion, diced

2 Tbsp Minced Garlic

1/4 Cup Sesame Oil

1 Cup Lite Soy Sauce

2 Tbsp Hoisin Sauce

Splash of Orange Juice

2 Tbsp Garlic Chili Sauce

1 Bag Frozen Edamame {unshelled}

16 Oz Egg Whites

4 Packets Lean Ground Beef {85% or above ~ around 4 lbs}

Diced green onions

Directions:

  1. Heat sesame oil over a large hot skillet.
  2. Add garlic and onions to the oil and soften them.
  3. Add all ground beed and cook thoroughly {no pink}.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix hoisin sauce, soy sauce, chili sauce, and orange juice.
  5. Whisk until mixed and add to the skillet with beef/onion mixture.
  6. Add cauliflower hash and cauliflower pearls.  Combine thoroughly.
  7. Once sauce is bubbling, add egg whites.  Stir until all cooked.
  8. Add frozen edamame and let simmer until thawed.
  9. Top with diced green onions.

    Hey Grace,

    I love following you on insta and this post, what flavor of BCAA’s is best? I tried green apple before and wasn’t a huge fan. Def need to order a new flavor I know you’ve referred to this before. Thanks!

  7. Anna says:

    Hi Grace,
    Have you researched the BCAA’s you take? I read that a lot of BCAA supps are made from human hair and duck feathers?! Let me know if you have any info!
    Love your site!

  8. Tiffany says:

    Hey I love the blog!! Do you cook the egg whites separately then add them to meat mixture, or add them in and let cook in the meat mixture? This sounds amazing!! Thanks

10/27/18 Mr. & Mrs. White

There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t feel so blessed to be Jordan’s wife. He is my everything. These photos and video are the sweetest reminder of our love for one another. So, grab a cup of coffee, pull up a seat, and try not to bawl your eyes out (because I know we did). Every time we look through our photos and watch our video, we cry the happiest tears.

The Proposal

It’s crazy what can happen in a year. I met the love of my life and the rest is history. I was having a hard time ending this post, because frankly, I think I could talk about that evening forever. Then I realized that this post doesn’t have an ending, but instead, a beginning. Thank you so much for all of the love, excitement, and gratitude.

Dark Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is bake my dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread! I’ve made it *so* many times for me, J, and friends & family. It’s moist, decadent, and super easy to make! It also makes for a great DIY housewarming gift.
