Gettin' Fit

In my ongoing attemt to improve mine and my sons' health, I have discovered a wionderful new recipe and that I love basketball.
First, the recipe-Bello-Burgers
In a food processor, grate/chop 1/4 of an 8 oz. brick extra sharp cheddar.
Add 1/2 lb. portabello mushrooms, 1/2 lb. lean ground beef, 1/2 cup quick oats, 1 egg white, 2 tbsp. Worcertershire sauce and salt & pepper. Process until completely incorporated. Shape into hot-dog shaped forms and grill on a hot skillet.
Wrap each slightly cooled form in a whole romaine leaf then wrap in a sun-dried tomato deli wrap. Yum! high protein, low fat, and a veggie snuck in! And the kids loved salsa instead of ketchup. Did you know a serving of salsa is considered another serving of veggies?!?!?!
Now, why I love basketball. I'm encourageing my children to be more active by signing them up for community sponsored sports (they're too young to join school teams). In the early summer, they played Lacrosse. It was exciting to watch, especially from the metal bleachers that had soaked up all the heat from the sun all day long before us parents arrived to watch the game. It often rained. They didn't cancel a game unless there was lightning.
In the late summer/early fall, the played soccer. I watched my youngest son win every game he played from the comfort of a mosquito infested, permamently damp swamp-land they called the "observation area".
Now, it is basketball season. I've watched my youngest son practice in the instructional league and my oldest win (so far) every game in a gym. A climate controlled, completely enclosed, always dry seating area. Yes, it smells like my brother's socks after a track meet. But it's warm, dry, and pest free (except for the teammates younger siblings).
