Time for a Tune Up!

June 28, 2010

We chose the Shrimp and Lobster Ravioli, and broke it out after our long bike ride yesterday. The dish was easy to make, but had a somewhat bland flavor. I added some basil, which [...]

The Shoestring of the Meal

June 21, 2010

Smart Food To celebrate our successful hill-taming ride yesterday (more details in a bit!), I made us a fantastic summer dinner. We picked up bison burgers from the Farmer’s Market this weekend, which I grilled with some Garlic Gold Nuggets and served with some Jalapeno Raw Milk Cheddar, lettuce and ketchup on Nature’s Pride Whole [...]

March 16, 2010

Goji Gourmet Giveaway

January 5, 2010

This summer, I started baking with goji berries. You may know them by one of their other names: Chinese wolfberry, bocksdorn, or barbary matrimony vine, among others. These little red berries are packed with iron, antioxidants, and vitamins. In fact, they have more antioxidants than blueberries or pomegranates, and more vitamin C than an orange! [...]

Glo Bar Giveaway!

November 17, 2009

You may recall from my Glo-ing review that I love Angela’s Glo bars. It is still true. My two favorite flavors are the Renew and Empower. Renew, as mentioned before, packs a lot of protein into a little bar. Perfect for days when you feel like you need a little protein-boost on the go. And [...]
