Tempt Non-Dairy Ice Cream and Hempmilk

Tempted by the Hemp of Another
I was recently introduced to hemp products, since they're so prominently featured in Thrive. Perhaps the best thing about hemp (well, the second best thing about hemp, I'm told ) is that it is nutrient-rich as a whole food, so little or no processing is needed to make healthy [...]

Chickpea Granola Bars

Hello my healthy Sweet-Toothers!  Friday has finally arrived, so it's Christine here with another STF!  This week I've got a great recipe for you that I wasn't quite sure what to call.  I was leaning towards Everything-But-the-Kitchen-Sink bars, or Anything-Goes bars, but I think my boyfriend Greg summed it up nicely by calling them (with [...]

This, That, and the Big News!

Whoa, way late on the post today! For that I apologize; I had to pick up some shirts from the printer and get them shipped off. (And that means more women's mediums and smalls are available now!) But Erin and I also did something far more exciting, which I'll save for last [...]

Hey NMA-ers!  It's Christine here with your weekly healthy dessert recipe!  For this Sweet-Tooth Friday, I went international and made Thai Steamed Peaches with Custard.  You're not going to believe how delicious and elegant a dessert can be with just FOUR ingredients!
Now for most of my Sweet-Tooth Friday posts, I've been sneaking nutritious elements into [...]

Pancakes for Dinner!

Almost Friday, veg-heads! I have to tell you, your comments on yesterday's post absolutely made my day. Thanks for all the encouragement.  Just over six weeks left until the big day!
In case yesterday was running-overload for some of you, today's all about food! Erin and I started the day with mango-jalapeno [...]

Hi there, I'm Matt. I went vegetarian last March, and almost immediately I became a much stronger runner. I recently qualified for the Boston Marathon; now it's on to my first 50-miler!
