How is your week? Mine has been the usual hectic-ness- but I’ve been enjoying every minute :) I was really excited to see the Athenos Challenge that has been going on around blog world.
Athenos feta is one of my favorite brands and I am a HUGE fan of Greek style salads. With the weather getting hotter and hotter in SC, cooler dinners have become more appealing. On Monday, I made up a ginormous Greek salad with spinach, romaine, sun dried tomatoes, artichokes and feta. I later also topped the salad with some hummus (mmm):
On the side, I had a chunk of my homemade focaccia bread.
The focaccia was supposed to be for a blogger meet up we were going to have on Monday night, but due to various circumstances, we had to reschedule. Guess Josh and I will have to eat all the focaccia ourselves, bummer ;). I also had a big bowl of melon:
Josh had a big salad too, but minus the feta,sundried tomatoes and hummus + shrimp. I also made a grilled artichoke and cheese sandwich for him using the focaccia:
How are your workouts coming along this week? My schedule is looking as follows:
- Monday: Ran to warm up, Taught Body Pump
- Tuesday: Taught Body Attack
- Wednesday: Off
- Thursday: Teach 45 minute Body Step, 45 minute Body Pump, Body Step launch practice

This week is a little heavy, so I plan to be super lazy on my off days ;). Do you have any group fitness questions? Keep them coming! I have the Group Fitness post in the works. Enjoy the rest of your work/school week.
PS- Anyone get these in the mail yesterday? I can’t wait to try them- Eggos bring me back to my childhood!!

Love feta cheese--definitely one of my favorites :-)
I rediscovered my love for feta about a month ago. My tastebuds have been deprived for so long! I actually just bought the exact container as you a few days ago. Hmm...Eggo pizza? Looks kind of good, not going to lie! By the way, I'll gladly take one of Josh's sandwiches ;) Artichokes and cheese? Yes, please!
Did you see RHNJ Monday night?! Craze!! I also saw a rumor (which they already denied) that RH was coming to D-town. I was SOCLOSE!! Happy Wednesday :)
That salad looks great...Your schedule reminds of my group fitness teaching days...Driving from gym to gym teaching at least 3 classes a day...I miss it sometimes.
LOVE feta! Next to goat cheese, it's my favorite. :-) I need to get some sundried tomatoes to add to my salads....that sounds delcious!
"Leggo my Eggo" hahaha I loved those commercials as a kid. Those pizzas look FANTASTIC. I can't wait to see if you like them!!
Yea for feta! I am loving this month of feta eating:)
I LOVE feta! It goes so well with so many things... I put it in a quinoa/pepper/salmon salad last night and it was so good!
Good lord, I remember Eggos! I had a babysitter who used to make them for me with American cheese and maple syrup. It was surprisingly good!
I love feta. I think it's probably my fave cheese! Bummer that the meet up had to be cancelled, though!
Fruit pizza's? I can see my kids loving those!!

Mmmm LOVE feta. But I love goat cheese a tad bit more ;-) And those eggo pizza things look interesting! I didn't get one in the mail though unfortunately!
I'm totally contemplating teaching here in Spokane, but I don't know how much time I'm going to have with my school schedule this next semester plus all the renovations we will be making on our new house. I haven't taught a class in over a month, and I'm missing it!

OOh, Eggo pizza is a really good idea!
I've been carving a greek salad for so long and that one looks SO good!!
Oh man, I was NOT allowed to eat Eggo's as a kid! That, or Spaghettios.

That salad looks wonderful! Josh is so lucky to get treated like a king. You always cook him different tasty foods :)

Eggo pizza!? How did I miss those!? Can't wait for you to eat it!

I was so disappointed not being able to indulge in your focaccia. It looked so good. I've been eating fruit like a mad woman. Not that I'm complaining though. I haven't gotten my pizzas yet, but I'm waitin! ;) I just had a salad with sundried tomatoes at Taco Boy. Why can't I remember to add those to my salads at home? Maybe we can grab some coffee or a walkaroo this weekend!
Hahah omg the last time I had eggo's I think I was 7! They were soooo good at the time :)
You make your own bread? You are amazing!
xxoo
My workouts are going well! Although, I had to take off today - my legs were a little sore from yesterday's run so i'm taking it easy!
Those eggo pizzas look interesting... I want to hear more about it!!
I love Greek salads and feta is amazing along with hummus on anything.
Ah! Those salads look so cool and tasty! My my...you have such a busy schedule!
Yum! I am a huge fan of Greek salads--but it's been far too long since I last had feta. Thanks for the inspiration:)
real fruit pizza? love the sounds of that. can't wait to hear what you think!
i love all the classes you do. i wish my gym had classes. sadly they do not. so i do my own at home.
Those salads look awesome!!
You workouts sound crazy awesome! I'd be exhausted if I were you on my days off!
Waffles are a serious weakness of mine : ) I get the chocolate chip eggo's for Jake sometimes and I end up doing some damage to them - they are sooooo good!
i love that you have the option of buying a reduced fat version.. hmm very good! but feta is good anyway really <3
xoxo

I live in Charleston, too!
I JUST started a blog this week after stumbling upon some amazing food and exercise blogs that really inspired me. I saw yours mentioned on a page I was reading (i don't remember who's it was) and was excited to see someone writing who was also in Charleston. I didn't know the blog world existed until about 2 weeks ago so this was very exciting for me :-) Once I started reading it I realized I have taken your step class a bunch of times! I am an ESAC member and take step every chance I get. I LOVE IT. You are a great instructor. So i figured I should say hi :-)
Oh my goodness! An egg fruit pizza?!?! YUMMMMM! So jealous! :)
wow you're the group fitness queen this week! :)
Greek salad is one of my all-time faves...and I love the idea of grilled cheese + artichokes! Can't wait to try that!
Wow, nice salad...SO healthy :-)
mmm, i love feta. there is a greek restaurant in town that i have been dying to try since we've been here.
your workout schedule is once again inspiring, working out on vacation is so hard! i hope you're having a lovely summer!
ahh hectic weeks make for ( i hope) relaxing weekends <3
I need to be taking more advantage of the summer watermelons. I'm such a huge fan and every time I see anyone post about them I get crazing cravings!
