Hi, friends!

I can’t believe we are already into the third week of October! Crazy, right? Time flies during this time of year, especially when we have so many fun activities on the calendar. Every weekend has been jam-packed with fall adventures – everything from apple picking to corn mazes. October is definitely one of my favorite months of the year.

I also love, love, lovvvve the fall food scene! There are so many in-season items that I just can’t get enough of – as you’ll see throughout this blog post. Give me all of the apples, pumpkin, and winter squash recipes! 🙂 Just in case you’ve missed a few new fall recipe additions to CNC, head over to my recipe page!

I hope you enjoy today’s sample macro day – and don’t forget to check out the workouts. I added a fun fall fitness challenge that will definitely test your fitness level. It’s always nice to have a little motivation boost, so give it a try and let me know how it goes for you!

Breakfast: I made a batch of overnight oats with rolled oats, So Delicious blueberry yogurt, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds and a big scoop of my favorite Teddie peanut butter. I also had my usual iced coffee with vanilla bean collagen and unsweetened vanilla Ripple milk.

Lunch/Post-Workout: I fit in a CrossFit workout mid-morning and enjoyed my new favorite recovery shake: SFH Vanilla mixed with orange juice. After I got home, I threw together this bowl of greens, roasted carrots, Trader Joe’s wild-caught cod and a scoop of their awesome cowboy caviar.

Snack: I whipped up a batch of pumpkin spice protein balls for the blog and, of course, had to taste test them! Later in the afternoon, I also enjoyed a piece of millet zucchini bread with a spoonful of peanut butter. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture, but it was so tasty!

Dinner: This wasn’t the most photogenic dinner, but it tasted great! I had Trader Joe’s butternut squash spirals topped with a combo of nutritional yeast and garlic hummus. I’d definitely recommend giving this a try!

Dessert: I made sure to save a little room for an apple cider donut. I can’t get enough of these babies during the fall! 🙂

Workouts to Try

Fall Fitness Challenge Workout: I always think it’s fun to find a challenging workout to test yourself on. Try out this countdown workout, track your time, and try it again next month. It’s fun to see how much you can improve!

20-Minute Mini AMRAP Circuit: There’s no time to get bored during this quickie workout! I love AMRAPs because the time flies by, and it’s a fun race against the clock. Set your timer and GO!!

12-Minute Core Killer: If you are short on time, but still want to get in a great core workout no matter where you are, give this one a go. Get ready to plank in multiple ways!
