Runs on (Mostly) Plants. Musings on Food and Fitness. Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Spring Lake 5 and Stir Fry. In my last post I talked about my most recent race, The Spring Lake 5. I am happy to report that I set a new PR! I felt really good and strong the whole time, and was really happy to come in under 43 minutes. Now onto the next race. This Saturday I am running the Pre-Father's Day 5k. With my Dad. I am excited that we get to do the race together, even though I intend to beat him handily! One of My Fa...

Runs on (Mostly) Plants: July 2010
http://runsonplants.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Runs on (Mostly) Plants. Musings on Food and Fitness. Monday, July 12, 2010. It's been a while since I have enjoyed a meal this simple and this delicious. All thanks to a beautiful bunch of beets from my trip to the farmer's market this past weekend! Lo and behold, there I found a raw beet recipe. So tonight, I went ahead and tried out the Grated Raw Beet Salad. I could have just eaten this for dinner, but I figured I ought to control myself and finish the recipe. I couldn't let the beet greens go to was...

Runs on (Mostly) Plants. Musings on Food and Fitness. Wednesday, May 26, 2010. A Salad and Another Race. Summer is definitely knocking on the door here! Today it topped out in the low nineties, although it felt hotter in the sun. On days like these, I typically want a salad (surprise, surprise! This Saturday I have my first race since the half marathon - The Spring Lake 5. Ideally, I'd like to beat my 5 mile PR, which is 47:05. We'll see how it goes! Wednesday, May 12, 2010.

The Hungry Pescetarian: Vegetarian's Delight
http://thehungrypescetarian.blogspot.com/2009/10/vegetarians-delight.html
Sea creatures and vegetables on your plate. After a few days of being stuck eating crummy restaurant and take out type food, I felt the need to make a really tasty, healthy dinner. This is one of the few times my meals actually looked like a "normal" meal; the burger, the veggie, and the starch! I made chickpea walnut burgers, served on lettuce leaves and topped with avocado and tahini sauce. On the side I made sauteed brussels sprouts in mustard sauce along with honey roasted sweet potato wedges. I had ...

Sea creatures and vegetables on your plate. 5-6 medium sized baking potatoes, peeled. Use a box grater to grate the onion and the potatoes into a colander. Press the grated onion and potato down firmly, squeezing liquid out of the colander. Using a dish towel, take one handful of the grated mixture and squeeze out the rest of the liquid. Place in a dry bowl. Repeat until you've gone through the whole mixture. Coat a non-stick pan with canola oil, and heat to medium-high. Full Swing Farmer's Market. Cook ...

The Hungry Pescetarian: Decadent Dessert, No Guilt
http://thehungrypescetarian.blogspot.com/2009/11/decadent-dessert-no-guilt.html
Sea creatures and vegetables on your plate. Decadent Dessert, No Guilt. Tonight I made a stir-fry for dinner, but sorry everyone, it will just have to wait until tomorrow. Dessert tonight took center stage and I just can't wait to share it. This is super easy and so delicious, and you will think you are enjoying something so sinful; but you're not! This makes one 16 oz. serving, so multiply as needed. 1 cup cold almond milk. 1-2 frozen bananas, in chunks (depending on how thick you like your shake).

The Hungry Pescetarian: October 2008
http://thehungrypescetarian.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Sea creatures and vegetables on your plate. One of things Mark and I miss the most about living in Burlington, VT is the quality and quantity of Asian restaurants. Somewhat surprisingly, there were at least 4 Thai places, 2 sushi places, and a handful of Chinese places all within walking distance. Since we've been back in NJ, we have been lamenting the fact that all the good Thai places are at least 20 miles away. No more! A few handfuls of whole cashews. 1 tbsp canola oil. Preheat the oven to 350. The n...

The Hungry Pescetarian: Seasonal Soup
http://thehungrypescetarian.blogspot.com/2009/11/seasonal-soup.html
Sea creatures and vegetables on your plate. I got some inspiration for this soup by poking around some various recipe search engines and coming up with something that worked for me. As usual, I served this with a green salad and homemade lemon vinaigrette and some toasted Italian bread. You'll be happy to know this soup recipe is quick, nutritious, and large; be ready with your Pyrex because you will have leftovers! ACORN SQUASH AND BEAN SOUP. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 5 cups vegetable stock or water.
