Enchilada Mac & Cheese

Oh man, I think I have found the mother of all comfort food – enchilada mac & cheese.  The perfect combination of two of my favorite foods.  It kind of reminds me of hamburger helper, but SO MUCH better and just as easy.  I was looking for a recipe that sparked my interest this week when I came across this.  Now, keep in mind, I have been working out quite a bit lately and watching what I eat (bathing suit season is coming soon – or that is what  I keep telling myself even though it is in the low 20’s today), so when I saw this,  my mouth started salivating.  I knew I had to let myself splurge and try this out.   

Baked Mac & Cheese

T-Minus 9 months.  That is the time I have left to whip my booty back into shape for Ann’s Wedding.  Actually, in exactly 9 months I will probably be suffering through hangover as it will be the day after Ann and Matt’s wedding, but I digress.  While I was at home for the holidays I had one of those moments when everything clicked.  I knew I was going to be stress free from work for almost two weeks and I would have zero excuses to not work out.  Libby was heading back to her family for Christmas so she left her dog Moxley in our care, making him a great buddy to kick-start my workouts and go for long power walk/jog.  Despite getting caught in a down pour and pretty cold temps, Mox and I had a great time.  I am proud to say that I have kept up my workouts even after returning to reality (aka work).
