Awesome Eats

Here at Certified Awesome we believe that eating healthy is just as important as hitting those WODs extra hard. With this in mind we are going to begin posting recipes and nutrition tips whenever we can.

Some of you may be on diets that are very low in starchy carbs (bread, pasta, rice, etc.) or are on diets that do not include any of these things at all. I am on the latter. When I first started this diet, I found it hard to get the energy I needed to hit those WODs without the bread and rice I was used to eating. When this problem arose I found that sweet potatoes were the answer. I now eat sweet potatoes everyday and I am full of energy. I especially love sweet potato fries. Below I have included my personal recipe for sweet potato fries.


Ingredients:
   Sweet Potatoes
   Olive oil
   Paprika
   Cinnamon

Prep:
   - Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees
   - Cut Sweet Potatoes into fries
   - Put one cup of olive oil, 1 tbsp of paprika, 1 tbsp of cinnamon, into a mixing bowl
   - Coat fries by dipping them in mixture, and then place them onto your cooking sheet
   - Depending on the amount of fries your making, the oil mixture will probably run out. Just keep making as needed

Cooking:
   - Bake for 20 min, flip, then bake for another 20 min

It's just that easy! Enjoy!
