EatingWell: Whats you and your familys favorite way to enjoy Mrs. Ts Pierogies?

Manno: This burrito bowl is so fantastic.

You get the Mrs. T’s Four Cheese Medley pierogies, saute them up quickly in a pan.

Then, throw on pickled onions and roasted corn.

Slice up some tomatoes, add a little cheese and top with avocado.

Its fantastic and so easy to make.

And I like to get my kids involved in that process.

So, my son can slice up an avocado with a butter knife.

My daughter is old enough to slice cherry tomatoes in half.

Even getting them involved in the process of making dinner is quality time.

Manno: We love to paint.

The other day, my husband and I did the paint your spouse challenge thats all over the internet.

It’s one of our favorite things to do.

Painting is something I enjoy and they enjoy, so we’re more likely to do it more often.

EatingWell: Whats an easy, go-to snack you rely on for busy days?

Manno: My son loves tofu.

It’s so fast and easy, and my kids love picking them up.

EatingWell: Being part of a vegetarian family, whats one food you never leave the store without buying?

Manno: Tofu and beans.

People assume that when you’re vegetarian, you’ve got the option to’t get protein.

That could not be farther from the truth.

We eat so many black beans in our family.

In fact, sometimes Ill throw black beans in this burrito bowl.

Tofu is a huge one for my son.

And we love edamame and things like that.

EatingWell: Do you have a favorite form of exercise?

Manno: Yes, hot yoga is probably my absolute favorite.

I just love the heat.

It’s so hard to remember to stretch.

That’s really my absolute favorite workout.

I have a machine at home called a Tonal.

It’s the best.

More recently, I just started boxing with a one-on-one coach who actually hits me back.

And oh my gosh, boxing is a workout.

I had no idea how much energy it takes to throw a punch.
