Angel Hair Frittata


 Today finally feels like I am in South Florida!! It has been a while since I walk outside and  say, "Damn its too hot out hurr!!" This morning I walked out of my house  with a sweater and pants, expecting it to be chilly just like its been the whole week. To my surprise it was actually HOT, and no need for a sweater! I really hope the weather stays like this, spring break just isn't the same without heat, mosquitoes, and humidity.

Yesterday was my lazy day, no gym, no work, just play :-) I went grocery shopping w/ mamma and without realizing it we spent over 3 hrs out!  These are just a couple of my buys. Thought I would share that Publix is having a BOGO sale on VitaTops, it lasts till' 3/10 so get them while you can!  I really like VitaTops,  they make a great addition to many of b-fast concoctions :-) And at BJ's I couldn't help but get this Nature's Path cereal that I haven't tried. 


Being my lazy day, I decided to be a bit productive and make an Angel Hair Frittata (a recipe from BJ's journal, makes 4 servings)  

  • 4 tbsp of Olive Oil 
  • 2 small zucchini 
  • 1 Tomato
  • 1 Green Onion 
  • Black Olives
  • 1/2 tsp Basil Leaves
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup of Grated Romano Cheese 
  • 6 oz. of Angel Hair pasta (I used whole wheat) 
    • cooked 
1. Heat 2 tbsp. of oil in a skillet and saute fresh vegetables until tender.
2. Stir in olives and dry basil leaves. 


3. Pre-heat broiler
4. Beat eggs and cheese in a large bowl. Stir in vegetables and pasta and season with salt and pepper
5. Pour mixture into oven-proof skillet and spread with spatula until veggies and pasta are evenly distributed.
6. Cook until until eggs are set and golden-brown on bottom.
7. Place skillet on broiler. Cook until top is golden brown. 

It turned out really good, and it was very easy to make. I know you can't really see the veggies in this pic but  they were hidden in there ;) 

Unfortunately, today has not been a lazy day. I have been working on a paper that is due tonight :( But, of-course I managed to squeeze in a gym visit. 

Here is today's workout:
  • Step- Up (3 sets of 15, with 15lbs. weights)
  • Side- Lunge w/ Shoulder Lift  (3 sets of 15, with 10 lbs. weights)
  • Push Up with Stability Ball (3 sets of 15) 
  • Squats with Stability Ball ( 3 sets of 15, 10lbs. weights) 
  • Stability ball Pike (3 sets of 15) 
  • Pull Back Machine (3 sets of 20, with 45 lbs.)

  • *Cardio Interval on Treadmill* 
    1. 5 minute warm up
    2. Run 2 mins. @ speed 5.5 - 6.5 
    3. Run 1 min. @ speed 7.6- 8.2 
    4. Repeat step 2 & 3, 5 times. 
    5. 5 minute cool down 
I'm off to continue writing my paper :( Hope you had a great weekend!!

Did you watch Alice in Wonderland? If so, did you like it?


 I really want to see it but I didn't get the chance to.

  2. I haven't seen Alice in Wonderland yet, but it got great reviews in my local paper. And of course anything with Johnny Depp is a must-see! :)

  4. MAJOR YUM on that fritatta recipe, it looks delish. And glad you had a nice day off, everyone deserves a day of rest :-)

    I really want to see Alice, but I really hate doing the whole UBER crowded movie thing, so I have decided to put it off for a little bit.
