I shared a protein special flavor below, but I also wanted to share this amazing meal made by some amazing friends a year ago, if you are looking for Mediterranean meals, this is a great one!! We will also be doing a Mediterranean workshop as well at the end of the month.

Add a protein like chicken or shrimp for even more deliciousness!

Quick and easy Mediterranean Pasta recipe with whole wheat pasta, olive oil, feta, sundried tomatoes, basil, and white beans.

Where is my peach 🍑 fans?

I normally just like peaches, not peach flavored items but this is the best!! Add peaches and even better 🤤!!

Last time it only lasted 2 weeks so that’s why I’m giving you all the heads up!!

Also protein is important for:
Healthy hormones
Muscle building (especially leucine)
Building a new life (pregnancy and pregnancy blog post below!)
Hair and nails
Healthy cells
And much more!

Feeling better thankfully. Remembering and running for those that can’t be here due to tragic events that happen one month ago today 😢🙏 Prayers with their families being sent their way. Four miles ran for four lives lost.

Oh my happy moms heart and inspiration to have an olive post (besides the yummy olive cheese bread with my sisters). She was just enjoying heartland while eating olives off her fingers 😂😂…. for cheesy olive bread and olive nutrition facts.

I also learned not the best thing to eat before a run through. Especially with cheesy bread 😂 🤪. Live and learn.

Okay more pictures of me running coming your way again 😂😂😂. I will say though I’ve been busy with doing something else pretty important (will post later this week!) as well, but so glad to get back to longer distance running. Got 4 miles today. It goes so much quicker when with a friend. Even if it is 19 degrees outside and snowy…… only time I’ll be in the snow ❄️ and outside for more than 5 minutes in winter 🥶😂.

Haven’t posted in awhile. My runs turned into walks due to a rib injury. I have taken advantage of it and took hikes with my daughter multiple times now. Showed her one of my favorite parks last weekend and we saw an eagle!

Tried to run Wednesday and ribs are feeling almost back to square one so still out for running 😢. Felt good mentally through to get my blood pumping like that! So more hikes .jamms ???

A fellow KSU dietitian and alumni posted this on our group and had to reshare with you. Anything else you may have observed with giving post in comments!

Some things to keep in mind when donating to a food bank or other food assistance program this holiday season (or anytime!)

1. Many people donate mac and cheese in a box. But you need milk and butter/margarine to make this, and these items are often not available at food pantries.

2. Donating boxed milk is a treasure, as kids can use it on their cereal which is a frequently donated item.

3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.

4. They can’t eat all those wonderful canned veggies and/or soup if they don’t have a can opener. Donate a can opener too, or buy the pull-top cans of vegetables and soups.

5. Donate vegetable oil. Pantries get lots of Rice-a-Roni but you need vegetable oil to make it.

6. Consider donating spices, salt, pepper, sugar, flour (regular and self-rising), cornmeal or self-rising cornmeal mix, baking powder, baking soda, cornstarch, butter, margarine or shortening, etc.

7. Tea bags, instant coffee, and powdered coffee creamer are good items to donate.

8. Fresh vegetables and fruits are wonderful gifts.

9. In spring or summer, packets of vegetable seeds could be great for individuals who could plant a small garden.

10. Fresh meat is a rarity and a much appreciated donation if the food pantry has refrigerator/freezer storage or if the donations are going immediately to the recipients. Remember, Hamburger Helper isn’t much good without the ground beef!

11. Peanut butter and jelly are great, but sandwich bread is also needed!

12. Eggs are a wonderful donation and a great source of nutrition. Put a rubber band around the carton so it doesn’t pop open.

13. Cake mix and canned frosting make a child’s birthday cake possible.

14. Stovetop Stuffing makes a great (and filling) side dish.

14. Dishwashing liquid is greatly appreciated. Same goes for laundry detergent.

15. Feminine hygiene products are so appreciated! Same goes for bath soap, toothpaste, mouthwash, deodorant, etc.

A good reminder to eat more nuts and seeds!

Adherence to a healthy diet can delay the onset of cardiovascular diseases and cancer and improve longevity.A high intake of alpha linolenic acid (ALA) - found mainly in nuts, seeds, and plant oils...

50 miles finished…. For the first time and would not of happened without amazing friends and family who kept me going, prayed, and kept me stocked with fuel, pickles, and stretching!

Thank you .daniel .jamms .ss and The rest of my family and Stephanie for being there for me and making this goal happen!! It was warm and flat and wasn’t sure if it was going to happen but prayers, pain cream and stretching worked. Plus one foot in front of another.

True wellness…..

Needed this peaceful sunrise run yesterday by the water. Last Saturday run before the big race.

Again any prayers, tips, music suggestions and encouragement appreciated… by mile 40 I’ll be not sure why I did this 🤣or sooner 😂.

Hello sunset, hello darkness 🤣😌.

Two weeks from today is the day I’ll run my longest race.

Thankful for good trails, weather and company.

I have great suggestions from my friend who is a seasoned ultra runner, but would love even more! Any tips for running 50 miles?
