Anniversary GIVEAWAY

I cannot believe that it has been one year since I started the Eighty Twenty blog! Thank you all for your support! I have had so much fun creating and adapting recipes that will fit into an 80/20 lifestyle!


Within the next year I hope to incorporate more physical activity tips and focus on highly plant-based recipes (with occasional meat dishes and absolutely necessary 20 recipes) as part of the 80/20 lifestyle.



"Let food be thy medicine and let thy medicine be food"- Hippocrates



Now for the GIVEAWAY!



I am giving away one Swift Toque from my friend Shayla's hat company Sauce Headwear.

The Swift Toque is a lightweight hat designed for aerobic winter activities. Ideal for a moderate to high intensity exercise in temperatures as low as 10°F / -12°C. Made from Nylon Lycra®, this hat will wick moisture and provide resistance to the wind.


Should you win, you may choose any print that you desire from her website. This is my favorite:

To enter: post a comment below with either (1) your favorite Eighty Twenty recipe or (2) a food that you would like to see health-ified on Eighty Twenty.

The winner will be chosen at random! No entries after 5pm MST on Sunday! Please also include your email address so that you can be contacted should you win! Only one entry per person because that's just fair. The winner will be posted Sunday night! Good luck!


Stay tuned for another GIVEAWAY next week!

    I have to pick just one? My favorite is the fish tacos, but my most recent would be the bran muffins, they were good too.

    Well, so far every dish that I've tried I've loved. My favorite has to be the sloppy black bean joes. Sooo good. If I asked my husband he'd say to polenta stuffed poblanos!!!

    I've been meaning to try the Antioxidant Agua. It looks like such a refreshing drink. I'm trying to kick my diet coke habit and want to give this a try.

    I just recently discovered your site, so I haven't gotten to try too many things, YET. But, I did really like the Quaker Who? Granola Bars. They tasted great--I even mixed some into my Greek yogurt for breakfast!

    Happy Anniversary!

    Congrats on a year of blogging!

    I'm from the Midwest and grew up on a family farm. One of my favorite meals is steak and potatoes. I'd like to see you "healthify" the potato. Baked seems to be the way most people eat them, but when you add sour cream, butter, and whatever else...WOAH! Calorie overload!

    I haven't tried any of your recipes, although I have used some of your recipes for inspiration.

    Thanks for doing an awesome giveaway! I have taken up running (up to 2 miles at a time) and would love to have something to keep my head warm in the cold Missouri winters when running, horseback riding, or sledding.

    Thanks!

    I love your veggie tempura recipe! So, do my kids and hubbie. I would love you to make up a super duper healthy meatball recipe. We are veggies and would love a healthy protein based meatball we can use with with pasta or different meatball type sauce.

    PS I LOVE your blog :)

    And my favorite recipe is Gorilla French Toast. Yes, it's on the 20 side, but I'm a HUGE Nutella fan and have served this to my kiddos and they LOVE it! :)

    Ohh, there's so many good ones! I have to say we've really enjoyed the baked tempura veggies. I'm always looking for ways to fancy up the veggies and make them more appealing to my kiddos!

    My favorite is Little Mama's Chicken Pot Pie! I would love to see a lighter version of eggplant parmesan. There are plenty of them out there but none are really goos in my opinion. I know you could make it lighter (80-ish-ish!) and also delicious and filling.

    The Pepitas Shrimp Skewers are my favorite! Love, love, love them. But I would love to see my great-grandmother's King Ranch chicken recipe made into an 80/20. I think's it's inherently a 20 but I can hope!!!

    I love the site, and while I've only had a chance to try the olive oil flatbread, I look forward to many more! (The flatbread, by the way, is delicious and a perfect alternatives to pita chips when pairing with hummus.)
