Mother's Day Breakfast in Bed
Audra Lowe: Hi everybody and welcome back to Better, coming up next is get
your button gear before you hit the beach and also, help your
parents face their financial future, but first treat mom right this
Mother’s Day. Rhiannon is in the kitchen with the Food Dude,
Kevin Roberts, and they’re cooking up a brunch that’s worth
staying in bed for them.
Rhiannon Ally: Kevin Roberts, restaurant owner, TV chef, cookbook author, also a
Kevin Roberts: Yes.
Rhiannon Ally: Because guess what, he loves his mom and his nana.
Kevin Roberts: Nana just turned 93 actually Rhiannon.
Rhiannon Ally: Well, happy belated birthday and today you’re helping us make
breakfast in bed for our mothers.
Kevin Roberts: Absolutely. Breakfast, the most important meal of the day, so
we’re going to start off with my rosemary roasted red potatoes. So
obviously, we need the potatoes, right. I’m going to do is quarter
Rhiannon Ally: How much salt?
Kevin Roberts: Let's go. Let’s go a little bit more, because you want that nice kind
of salty crunch. Here we go, a couple of tablespoons worth.
Rhiannon Ally: All this got garlic?
Kevin Roberts: All garlic, we love garlic, right?
Rhiannon Ally: I love garlic and so does my mom, so she’d be very happy.
Kevin Roberts: Good, good.
Rhiannon Ally: Okay.
Kevin Roberts: And some rosemary now, and you actually kind of chop I up, you
kind of want to like break it up, break it up through your fingers.
You don’t want Nana gagging on rosemary.
Rhiannon Ally: I think you're trying to kill her.
Kevin Roberts: Yeah, yeah, I'm throwing that and add some good olive oil, right?
That nice and coated, get some garlic brown, black pepper.
Rhiannon Ally: This is pretty easy.
Kevin Roberts: Now, does your mama Nana like spice?
Rhiannon Ally: Yes.
Kevin Roberts: Okay, if she likes spice, obviously you know, I'm a hot sauce freak
guy. I put on everything, so--
Rhiannon Ally: Yes, my mom likes it spicy.
Kevin Roberts: A little Franks RedHot, so just a little, just to kind of give it nice
Rhiannon Ally: Give it a kick.
Kevin Roberts: You mix it all up, how easy is this? Now, obviously the new name
is called --
Rhiannon Ally: Roasting, not baking, it's roasted rosemary potatoes.
Kevin Roberts: Nana still calls it baking, but as I said, she’s 93. But yeah, the new
term, the new fancy new term is roasting, you put those in the over,
350 degrees for about 40 minutes, you'll smell the rosemary and
Rhiannon Ally: And just leave it alone.
Kevin Roberts: Oh yeah! Don’t touch that yet. And they turn out to be that lovely
little roasting right there that little piece there.
Rhiannon Ally: That does look delicious. Okay, what else are we making?
Kevin Roberts: Well eggs, eggs obviously go with potatoes. Here’s just my twist,
obviously you do scrambled, pouched, Nana loves sunny side up. I
just do a little trick; I just made a white omelet, so it's egg whites,
so pure protein.
Rhiannon Ally: Very healthy.
Kevin Roberts: And I just add a little Philadelphia cream cheese in there to give it
a nice kind of hot creamy kind of taste, texture.
Rhiannon Ally: Oh, mom is going to love that one.
Kevin Roberts: Easy, yes, so omelet, roasted potatoes. We’re all set and now if the
grandkids are around, or the kids are around.
Rhiannon Ally: A lot of people have kids. They'll be there on Mother’s Day.
Kevin Roberts: Exactly, I grab some little lenders.
Rhiannon Ally: These are so cute.
Kevin Roberts: Aren’t they the cutest little things?
Rhiannon Ally: Yes, they're adorable.
Kevin Roberts: But you actually—super healthy, obviously—you know,
trustworthy, these are my go-to bagels and you actually find them
in the refrigerator-freezer and fresh aisle. So like if they're not
somewhere you like, they’re everywhere. When you walk in the
store, they're sitting right there. So this is my breakfast bagel
sandwich. So let’s throw some cream cheese on there. Let me grab
my little thing too, I want to build one myself. I make these
literally all the time. So a little cream cheese.
Rhiannon Ally: Okay, oh, on both sides?
Kevin Roberts: Oh yeah. Common don’t skip on the cream cheese.
Rhiannon Ally: This is going to be good.
Kevin Roberts: Okay, now a little red onion, you do turkey, black forest ham, a
roast beef goes really well. And actually, it's funny. You're getting
your carbs, your dairy, your life foods and your protein. So
basically you're eating all four food groups literally in one hit. And
I like Roma’s tomatoes because they're little less acidic than a
regular tomato. Boom! Breakfast bagel sandwich.
Rhiannon Ally: Oh that is so cute!
Kevin Roberts: Breakfast in bed, they're they are right there.
Rhiannon Ally: The finish product.
Kevin Roberts: That’s it.
Rhiannon Ally: That looks delicious.
Kevin Roberts: Make mom and Nana happy.
Rhiannon Ally: All moms might want a bagel sandwich.
Kevin Roberts: Mom and Nana.
Rhiannon Ally: Okay. What about the drink. We need a drink for mom.
Kevin Roberts: Right there, I just had champagne and a little a pomegranate juice,
mix it up, that’s it. Instead of old Jake, because that’s the—you
know what the mimosa?
Rhiannon Ally: Yeah.
Kevin Roberts: Just mix it up. Get creative, that’s what cooking is all about.
Rhiannon Ally: And pomegranate is so healthy for you, I love that.
Kevin Roberts: There you go!
Rhiannon Ally: Perfect. Thank you so much Kevin, these are delicious. All these in
your cookbook, also we’re going to add these recipes to our
website, Better TV.com.
Kevin Roberts: I'm going back to bed.
Audra Lowe: It looks good guys. I’ll definitely be checking out those recipes.
Alright, now that you’ve served up breakfast in bed, it's time for
some toning up, and we all have our stubborn spots when it comes
to getting our bodies in shape. And one of the biggest offenders is
the bottom. But how can we get the rear in gear? Better’s fitness
expert Andrea Metcalf shows us how we can tone that butt in
today’s Getting Fit.
Andrea Metcalf: You know everyone wants to answer to that question, especially
with Hollywood telling us what a bottom, curvy side we need to
have. So I've got four moves that we can do to help build your
bottom line and Juan Pedro from Equinox, in New York is going to
show us some of his as well.
First move I have is a side lounge. Step out to the side, press down
into the hips and push back in. You want to make sure that your
toes stays forward and the weights into your heel really push and
extend and press it back in together. It's a simple move but you can
make it a lot harder with adding resistance or a step.
Juan Pedro: You know Andrea. I actually have a really good one that my
clients end up enjoying a lot. What I like to do with people is a
split squat and what I like to do is drop to one knee, you want that
heel really close to your knee, load the front foot and you want
your navel right over that front heel. As you come up, you want to
extend this left foot forward, putting all the weight unto our left
glute, helping you firm up the butt as much as you want. Go back
Andrea Metcalf: As you want? I want it a lot, squeeze it!
Juan Pedro: Full squeeze, all the way up.
Andrea Metcalf Well, this reminds me of another exercise, a single-leg touchdown
with a demi pointe. So we’re going to lift that back leg, that’s
going to give us some glute work, bend the knee and reach down.
Now, this is a really good one, you can do it at home, when you're
picking up toys or clothes, or whatever it is you find on your floor
and just reach, press, and down. Now, all three of these exercises
you should do on both sides in about 12-15 reps. Got anything
Juan Pedro: Yeah, definitely. I like going down to the floor. You're going to
lay, heel right at fingertips length. You want to have your feet hip
width apart, positioning your hip up, squeezing your butt at the
very top. Fold this, not overarching the back, getting full extension
on the hip, tightening your butt firmly.
Andrea Metcalf: Yeah, this is a great one. Bridging is one the best ways to help
support that lower back and opening up the hip flexors. And as you
get more advanced, you can put your feet on a bench or a ball. And
we can also do it single leg.
Juan Pedro: Definitely.
Andrea Metcalf: These are great exercises to build a better back side. And this is
Juan at Equinox, now I'm Andrea Metcalf. These are our four tips
on how to build a better back side.
Audra Lowe: Thanks Andrea and if you guys have questions for Andrea, just
