This recipe was one of my first creations in the kitchen after forming Eat 2 Run Sports Nutrition. In fact, it became a cornerstone to the KickStart Cleanse (plant based version) – and to this day (a decade later!!) remains a favourite. Of all the ‘veggie burgers’ out there, I’m pretty sure this one sticks together better than most, ha. …
This is currently how I consume my daily half cup of tart cherry juice. I started drinking this breakfast shake about 2 years ago when looking to move away from my previous staple (that served me SO WELL for so many years until all of a sudden it didn’t any longer). And I must say, even a number of years …
Overnight oats may take a bit of prep the night before, but it’s well worth the effort in the morning (especially early mornings!!) when you feel short on time and often rushed. They are also ideal for race morning as they do not require heating, thus can be prepped in advance, taken anywhere, and then just eaten right out of …
There are many, many ways to help our bodies become more metabolically efficient – which will serve us well if we wish to run for years to come, not to mention maintain good health for running presently. One of my favourite strategies has been to switch over from a heavy carb-based breakfast to a fat-based breakfast, to help train the …
Most treats are high in carbs and/or sugar… And what I see most often are cases where a runner is actually needing more healthy fats in their diet. Therefore, to round out a meal with some ‘dessert’ at the end, or even as a snack, these fat bombs can prove quite useful. They are both a tasty treat and at the …
This recipe is an adaptation of one I picked up over 2 years ago – so long ago it’s undergone 10 handwritten renditions and the final cut has actually been part of my recipe book for at least the past year. Needless to say, these brownies are currently my ‘party favourite’ – whenever we have company over, they get brownies …
I must admit, my husband created this recipe! We had a cabbage salad at a little cafe on Bowen Island and he enjoyed it so much he asked if I might recreate it. When nothing materialized, he took matters into his own hands and came up with this. I can’t say I’ve changed it up that much from what his original …
I’ve long been a fan of miso. In fact, one of my first recipes was a recreation of a local restaurants popular dish – Miso Nut Power Bowl. However, I’ve long been searching for more delicious ways to use the miso sitting in my fridge! Thanks to a delicious idea from my new partner in crime, Eat2Run nutritionist Kaydee Gregg (which …
The inspiration for these simply came from having 3 egg yolks on hand that I didn’t want to toss. I’m rather glad for it, as I think I may just keep an ongoing supply of the lemon topping in the freezer for ever and ever, as probably my most favourite treat ever! The crust requires pulling out the food processor, …
In the past few months, this has become my absolute favourite for before a long or hard run – and a favourite of a number of clients also! I mean, Power Cookies will always be a favourite pre-workout snack, but I created these bars because I wanted a VERY easy to digest bar (low fibre / protein / fat, such …
