(via imgTumble)My Tips for “Getting Abs” -
- Eat CLEAN (NO JUNK FOOD, choose wholesome,natural sources.. see my grocery list and meal plan for an example of this!)
- Do cardio (HIIT is great for fat loss)
- Lift weights (revs metabolism, and increases calorie burn over an extended period of time)
- Drink water (your body needs water to perform basic functions like mobilize fat stores and build muscle)
- Get enough sleep (if you don’t sleep enough, cortisol levels are raised, which promotes fat storage around the abdomen)
- Avoid stress (same cortisol problem)
- Eat healthy fats (fats like avocado, olive oil, natural peanut butter and almonds help you LOSE fat)
- Eat lean proteins (it helps keep you satiated longer and has the highest thermogenic effect of any other macronutrient)

1 large eggplant, (1 1/4-1 1/2 pounds), cut into 12 1/4-inch-thick rounds
Olive oil cooking spray
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons finely shredded Parmesan(real) or Asiago cheese
4 pieces of Ezekial bread
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 ounces baby spinach
1 cup crushed tomatoes, preferably fire-roasted
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, dividedDirections

3.Place spinach in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and punch several holes in the wrap. Microwave on High until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Combine tomatoes and 2 tablespoons basil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until bubbling, about 2 minutes.
4.Place all your ingredients on the baking sheet with the eggplant and take it to the grill. Grill the eggplant slices until brown and soft on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Grill the bread until toasted, about 1 minute per side. Return the eggplant and bread to the baking sheet. Reduce grill heat to medium.
5.Place 1 eggplant round on top of each slice of bread. Layer 1 tablespoon tomatoes, 1 tablespoon wilted spinach and 1 tablespoon cheese on each slice of eggplant. Repeat with the remaining eggplant, sauce, spinach and cheese. Sprinkle each stack with some of the remaining basil. Place the baking sheet on the grill, close the lid and grill until the eggplant stack is hot and the cheese is melted, 5 to 7 minutes.
