13 Miles, Lots of Sweating, No Water Ok, I'm back from the run. 13 miles in an hour and 50 minutes, about an 8:27 pace. This is a good bit slower than the 7:45 pace I had hoped for, but I don't feel too badly about it because I recently ran the half marathon at…

Thanks for all your congratulations! I'm still a little sore from the race, but in all the right places (muscles, not joints). I haven't run again yet, but I'll likely be back at it today or tomorrow. I'm even considering running my town's 5k on Sunday– it's kind of soon, but I've never run a…

On a warm spring or summer day, out on the deck for lunch, nothing beats this meal for us! It's a de-meatified, whole-wheatified version of a favorite of ours from Rachael Ray's 365: No Repeats. I get the feeling "Rach" isn't really respected among real chefs (except for her ability to make a billion dollars…

Risotto is one of those simple, humble meals that can elevate a few good ingredients to mythical heights. It's my definition of comfort food. Usually comfort food is heart-attack food, but not the No Meat Athlete kind! Risotto is made from a special rice grain (Arborio or Carnaroli) which is simmered in the cooking liquid…

I'm back, healthy foodies, with the promised roasted tomato pasta recipe! Over the weekend I found a fun recipe in a magazine, then Erin saw a different one on TV, and we decided to combine the two to form one super-recipe. We Americans have grown so accustomed to the pasta-with-grilled-chicken (or some other meat) dish…

We made this one for lunch yesterday, another winner from Fine Cooking. It seems that vegetarians eat a lot of beans, and for good reason because in addition to being the musical fruit, they are a quality source of both protein and carbohydrates. There are plenty of other good ingredients in this recipe. Lime juice…
