What's Body One Cooking in the Kitchen

We here at Body One have had some extra time lately to get creative in the kitchen! Here are some recipes we’ve made and can vouch for their tastiness! 

Let’s start with an appetizer (can also be eaten as a main dish):

Lemons (3 small or 2 big)

Olive oil (¼ cup)
