Ashley Munro - Living Better Health and Fitness I am a busy mom who is balancing a family life and living a healthy and fit lifestyle. I want to help you get in the best shape of your life too! You deserve it!

I just want to first thank you for liking my page Ashley Munro - Living Better Health and Fitness and following me on my journey! I have been struggling with weight gain on and off for the last 5 or 6 years. I am an emotional eater so I eat when I am happy, when I am upset, or mad or just bored. After having my son a year and half ago I struggled a lot with depression and anxiety and had a lot of

trouble getting motivated to even get up off the couch. I had no energy to play with my son and had lost all my confidence in myself. My clothes didn't fit and I barely recognized the person in the mirror anymore. I knew I needed to make a change but just didn't know how. I have tried diets before and they worked for a little while but I always went back to eating whatever I wanted. I have had gym memberships in the past too but they always ended up not being used. It was too easy to convince myself I was to busy to go today. Then one day I was browsing on facebook and I saw an add for a 21 day fix challenge group and on a whim I decided to join. It was the best thing I ever did for myself. It allowed me to take control of my life again. The exercises were all done in my own home and the eating plan was so easy to follow! I also started using Shakeology which is a super healthy meal replacement shake filled with vitamins and minerals. And the support and encouragement I received from the people in the challenge group helped keep me motivated to keep working everyday. After a week of this new lifestyle I started seeing results and I was hooked. In 3 weeks I lost 7 pounds and 11.5 inches off my body! And it wasn't even all about the weight loss, I felt healthier, stronger and had more energy than ever before. Since then I have continued my journey to a better me and have even decided to become a coach. I want to help others feel better about themselves. I strongly believe everyone deserves to have confidence in the way they look and feel. I want you to love what you see in the mirror. I want you to be able wear the clothes in the back of your closet that you thought you could never get into again. I want you to have the energy to keep up with your busy kids or grandchildren! Even if you have a lot of weight to lose, you can do it! The hardest part is just getting started! I will be there to coach you through every step of the way! Please message me if you are interested in making a change. Together we can do this!

I believe that everything happens for a reason and even though things may not be going as you planned it may just be a piece to a much bigger and better puzzle.

I absolutely love pasta with Alfredo sauce but, it is typically high in fat and fairly unhealthy. So I was really excited to come across this recipe for a lighter version of it. Plus this recipe is for a casserole which will make a great family meal.

CHICKEN ALFREDO BAKED ZITI

12 ounces ziti (or any pasta shape) (I would use whole wheat)
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken (about 2 small chicken breasts)
1 batch alfredo sauce (see below)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (I used 2% low fat)
(optional toppings: additional shredded Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh parsley)

ALFREDO SAUCE INGREDIENTS:
1 Tbsp. olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp. flour
1 cup chicken broth (low sodium)
1 cup low-fat milk (I used 1%)
3/4 cup freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper

TO MAKE THE CHICKEN BAKED ZITI:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Cook the pasta al dente in a large stockpot of well-salted boiling according to package instructions. Drain. Return pasta to the stockpot and add chicken and alfredo sauce. Gently toss to combine until the pasta is evenly coated.

Pour half of the pasta into a greased 11x7-inch or 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup of cheese. Layer the remaining half of the pasta evenly on top. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and just barely starts to turn golden. Remove and serve immediately, sprinkled with additional toppings if desired.

TO MAKE THE ALFREDO SAUCE:

Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute one minute, stirring occasionally, until fragrant. Sprinkle with flour, and stir to combine. Saute for an additional minute to cook the flour, stirring occasionally.

Slowly add chicken broth, whisking to combine until smooth. Whisk in milk, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let cook for an additional minute until thickened, then stir in Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper until the cheese melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
