Healthy Meal: Pumpkin Pasta

cooking, running / 18 Comments

With the Atlanta Marathon coming up on Thursday and me still being completely exhausted (though most people dread going to the doctor, I cannot WAIT for my doctor’s appointment next Wednesday to find out all my test results, and am counting down the days), my nutrition leading up to the race is extremely important. I’ve been gaining quite a bit of weight lately, and even if I were feeling in tip top shape, the extra weight would probably slow me down. Therefore, I’m trying to eat foods that are highly nutritious but still with tons of carbs. One of my …

Healthy Meal: "Cream" of Roasted Red Bell Pepper Soup

cooking / 12 Comments

Our grocery store has had red bell peppers on sale for a week or two now, piles and piles of beautiful red shiny skins. I’ve been looking for recipes to use them up (not that that’s a huge problem – I love red peppers and used to eat them constantly as a childhood snack). In any case, I found a yummy sounding recipe for roasted red pepper soup, and decided to customize it and give it a go. The original recipe is here, but I’ll provide my own (healthier) instructions here. In a saucepan, melt 1 tsp unsalted butter. Once …

Workout and a Healthy Meal: Toasted Papaya

cooking, diet, health and fitness / 7 Comments

I just had the best workout. Did my normal routine of going from machine to machine, but this time I did mini circuits by constantly switching back and forth between the machines. I usually do three sets of 15, but today I did two machines at a time: one set of 15 on machine A, one set of 15 on machine B, then one set of 8 but at a much higher weight on machine A, likewise on B, and finishing up with sets of 15. I was shocked to see how much weight I could put on the machines …

Healthy Meal: Raw Vegan Pizza

cooking, diet / 11 Comments

I haven’t really been posting my raw vegan recipes becaues they’re not really cooking, and so many people thought it was gross when I had that kale smoothie that I didn’t know what a receptive audience I’d have. I think this is one of my favorite raw vegan recipes I’ve tried so far – pizza! I made two of these and when I ate the first one and saw how amazing it was, I took a picture of the second so I could post it. In a food processor, combine:1 large tomato1/4 red onion2 cloves garlicParsley, basil, oregano, and whatever …

Healthy Meal: Baked Schnitzel, Braised Cabbage, and Potatoes

cooking / 3 Comments

It’s been forever since I posted healthy recipes, but with a week in New York, I’m getting a week to cook instead of eating out all the time! I’ve been trying hard to avoid high heat cooking and eat more raw foods, but today I had a craving for my favorite meal from Dano’s on Seneca. Dano’s is this incredible Austrian restaurant near Cornell (well, not that close – it’s about forty minutes away) that I loved going to for every special occasion – if you’re ever in the area, I’d highly recommend it. Anyway, I used to get wiener …
