Friday night, Team FIT CHICKS and I took out our AMAZING support crew<\/strong> from our OXFAM Trailwalker race<\/a>, Chris and Dallas, as a SUPER HUGE thank you for their help \u2013my feet and I never would have made it through that 100km without them!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"The

The bagpipers at halftime at the Toronto FC Game. 22000 peeps came out in the rain to support!<\/p><\/div>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Saturday, we headed to the Toronto FC game<\/strong> against New York at BMO field.\u00a0 It was my first time there and we had so much fun \u2013 even though we lost 4-1 and it started raining!\u00a0 After a pretty late Friday night and the game, we were wiped so we decided instead of heading out for dinner, we were going to chill out and have a \u201cChicks Night In\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Chicks Nights In” are my fave type of slow down nights<\/strong>.\u00a0 Not only are they inexpensive (our whole spread cost less than $20), it is a super healthy way to spend time and reconnect with the peeps you love.\u00a0 Plus, even if you are the least \u201cMartha Stewart\u201d type like me, you instantly look like a Domestic Diva!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Our CHICK FEED spread included:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fresh baked whole grain bread<\/span><\/p>\n

Brown Rice Crackers (for my gluten fee chicks!)<\/span><\/p>\n

Homemade Chick Pea & Feta Dip<\/span><\/p>\n

Laura\u2019s Sassy Salsa (my fave homemade salsa \u2013 I put it on everything!)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Grape tomatoes, baby carrots, marinated mushrooms<\/span><\/p>\n

Roasted garlic, sundried tomatoes and Camabert cheese<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

\n

\n

\"Chick

Chick Night In Spread - so delicious!<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Add some cute plates, girlie movies and heart healthy red wine (just try not to drink the whole bottle!) and voila \u2013 an awesome Saturday night!<\/span><\/p>\n

\n


\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

\"I

I don't know where to start but a carrot seems like a good place!<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\n

\n

\n

I am always looking for dips and spreads to add to my “Chick’s Night In” recipe book, so please leave me your fave ideas and recipes!<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n
