Jalapeño Cornbread

Published: November 7, 2022 · Courtney Rushing

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

It’s soup season, which goes right along with cornbread season. I found Krusteaz in stores and figured I’d try their cornbread mix, but spruce it up a bit. My version is incredibly easy and adds a kick with jalapeño!

This simple recipe only requires a handful of ingredients and takes around 30 minutes start to finish! Comes out buttery and delicious every time.

Notice how a majority of the meals here are nutrient dense, whole foods? Yet, still I hear clients or people who have a similar diet fear eating something like pizza. It’s just pizza. 

It wasn’t a “free meal” it wasn’t a “cheat meal” it was just a slice of pizza because I was simply hungry after dinner. 

One of the biggest reasons I think people fear items like sweets, pizza, etc. is because they place restrictions on foods.  When you live your life in balance, there’s no restrictions, there’s no food guilt. There’s just pizza. Simple as that.

If you’re having a hard time with balance, try cutting out the restrictions instead of more foods.

Maintenance is not a free for all or excuse to stop focusing on healthy habits.

Every year, I have clients who crush a deficit phase because they make some awesome lifestyle changes.

When a client comes back to me and says they “fell off the wagon at maintenance”, it’s usually because they stopped being diligent about their habits.

Just so we are clear, lifestyle habits meant FOR LIFE, not just for a deficit. So the healthy habits you build during a deficit, like meal prepping, pre logging, going for walks, sticking to a workout routine, getting adequate water, fiber, sleep and rest days still need to be the focus at maintenance.

What are some habits from a deficit that you keep with you year round?

Crazy to look back and see the place where I once was; frustrated, tired, overwhelmed and wondering why nothing I was doing was working. 

Looking back, it’s nuts to me why I didn’t try the one thing I hadn’t tried all those years, eat more. 

If you’re struggling and find yourself eating less and less while only doing more and more to try to see a change in your physique, I feel you. I’ve been there. 

It takes learning the science and evidence based protocol to make long lasting changes. 

My life now is so much more than searching for abs in a mirror. My goals are not physique driven, but rather health driven which ironically has led me to “look” better than ever. I build balanced meals, live at maintenance and focus on progressive overload with @movesbymadeline  workouts.

Do you struggle with adherence during deficits? You might not be planning them for the best time during the year. 

A deficit isn’t meant to be had before every event, beach trip and bachelorette party you have. It’s a specific time to focus on fat loss. The events and plans you have during a deficit can effect your overall adherence. 

Use a calendar to help you better plan for and adhere to a deficit!

Showing you a few of my breakfast meals this week! As y’all know, I cannot eat eggs as they bother my stomach, so here are a few ideas for you to save! I personally do not track macros anymore as I live at maintenance, but I still try to prioritize protein, carbs, fats and fiber in every meal

What are some of your breakfast go-to meals?
