Why hello there! Happy weekend to you! What are you up to (other than meal prepping, of course)? I’m currently running the Reno-Tahoe Odyssey, which is a 178-mile relay race! Don’t worry, I have lots and lots of help. My share of the event is only about 15 miles, to be completed in 3 parts. Generally, the event is just a great excuse to get your friends together for good old fashioned shenanigans…with some running in between.
Food this week!: Summer’s upon us! We have summery quesadillas, kale pesto pasta, zucchini soup, Mediterranean pitas, and spring veggie bowls! Have a fun and relaxing weekend, and enjoy your food this week!
