5 Kickboxing Moves to Killer Abs

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

A small study published in May in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition concludes that adding eggs to salads makes it easier to absorb the carotenoids in the raw vegetables. Carotenoids are the yellowish-red pigments that give carrots and tomatoes — and lots of other fruits and vegetables — their color. They found that the absorption of carotenoids was 3.8-fold higher when the salad included three eggs compared to no eggs.

Perfect Timing Does not Exist

If you wait for the perfect time to make the leap toward following your dreams, you will be waiting forever. I know few things for certain, but this is one of them. Susan Hill, who left both a modeling and fundraising career to co-found the Richmond Food Co-op with Michele Lord, explained, "I think one of the biggest things [in following your own path] is you can't wait for someone to give you permission." At some point, you make the decision to go for it.

The process is going to be messy and uncertain at times, but know you are not alone in this. Everyone who takes the risk, who digs out and creates a new path, is going to experience this uncertainty. If you want the road that is perfectly smooth, void of bumps or roadblocks, then stay in that safe cubicle. The learning and growing is in the process, as well as the experiences and relationships created along the way. Start before you're ready.

Ingredients:

• Cooking spray

• 8 (9" x 14") sheets phyllo pastry*

• 2 Tbsp. canola oil

• 8 Tbsp. whole-wheat panko

• 3 oz. dark chocolate (72 percent), finely chopped – until it resembles grated chocolate, divided

• 4 just-ripe large bananas, peeled and halved crosswise
  1 large egg, beaten with 1 tsp. water

• 8 large fresh strawberries

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.

• Place a sheet of phyllo with narrow end toward you. Brush it lightly with oil. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon panko over phyllo. Set a banana half 2 inches above bottom of phyllo. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon chocolate over and around banana. Lifting bottom edge of phyllo up over banana, roll it over, covering banana. Fold in sides, then finish rolling banana in phyllo. Transfer phyllo roll to prepared baking sheet. Repeat, wrapping remaining banana halves. Brush top, sides and ends of phyllo rolls liberally with beaten egg. Using small, sharp knife, make 2 diagonal slits in phyllo to let steam escape. Discard remaining egg
  Bake phyllo rolls for 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool baked phyllo rolls on baking sheet for 20 minutes.

• Meanwhile, cut bottom tip off each strawberry. Placing strawberry with bottom toward you and rotating blade of a sharp knife at 45-degrees, make 4 or 5 vertical cuts from base to near top, just below hull. Gently press on strawberry to fan out slices.

• To serve, transfer warm phyllo rolls to individual dessert plates. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon grated chocolate over each roll. Place a fanned strawberry on plate, and serve.
