Ballet boot camp day 2

Oh my goodness my legs are so sore today from that ballet boot camp and I love it! Can't wait to go back to the gym today.
I've been trying to have a lot if variety in my meals and add new meals to my menu as well. This morning I'm making chocolate banana quinoa. Quinoa is crazy healthy and the sweetness comes from cocoa, honey, and vanilla so it's still healthy and here's the recipe
What You’ll Need:

1/2 cup raw quinoa
1 cup + 1/4 cup almond milk
1/2 cup water
Dash of sea salt
1 banana, 1/2 mashed, 1/2 cut into slices
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fresh mint for garnish

What To Do:

Bring 1/2 cup of quinoa, 1/2 cup water, 1 cup almond milk, and dash of sea salt to a boil in a small pot.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook stirring occasionally until all the liquid has been absorbed (about 10 minutes).
Remove quinoa from stove and transfer to a bowl.
Mix in the mashed banana, cocoa powder, vanilla, and honey. Stir until evenly combined.
Pour the remaining 1/4 cup of almond milk over quinoa, garnish with banana slices and mint (if desired), and enjoy!

At the gym ran for 25 mins today and got 1.8 miles, did the ballet boot camp with added stretches, push ups, glute raises, and plank

Protein bar for post workout snack and hummus tomatoes and avocado on an English muffin later for lunch.

Dinner was a piece of roast with potatoes and carrots
