    Oh everything looks delicious! I love making healthy food and hearing peoples reactions when they LOVE it. For Easter brunch this year I actually made reservations at a restaurant for me and my sisters that will be visiting. But I plan to cook Easter dinner.

    I'm totally into the crockpot eggs dish, I made something similar this week! Unfortunately, we don't cook for Easter because it's just three of us so we take Grandma to Whole Foods! ha ha

    These look delicious! Thanks for sharing. Quick question for you, which training/certification did you use to be able to teach spin? I would like to expand into teaching spin myself.

      I am Keiser certified. There's also a bunch others like Schwinn, NETA and spin. You should check with the gym you want to teach at before getting certified because a lot of times they only want a certain certification to go with the bikes they have.
