Hazelnut and Date Breakfast Smoothie

Hazelnut and Date Breakfast Smoothie

As you know, we Veggie Runners love a hearty breakfast. Indeed, sometimes we love breakfast so much we have two. True fact. Occasionally, though, life gets in the way – flights to catch, early meetings, even earlier runs, that kind of thing – and the best option is to have a breakfast shake ready to…

Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie

Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie

You know we Veggie Runners love a good protein smoothie. This vegan Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie is great for post-run repair and for helping to keep your immune system in good shape. It tastes rich and creamy, though it’s neither, and it’s lovely poured over ice cubes. A bit like Baileys but better for you….

Vegan Protein Pancakes

Vegan Protein Pancakes

Image: Zsolt Sandor / MothershipUK Shrove Tuesday, Pancake Day, Mardi Gras – it’s time to fatten yourself up before the privations of Lent, if you happen to believe in such things. I didn’t turn out to be quite the good Catholic girl my dear, departed father hoped for but I do still give something up every…

Vegan Pancakes

Vegan Pancakes

Everybody loves pancakes, right? These are quick and easy to make – fab as a healthy breakfast with fruit and yoghurt and great with peanut butter and/or jam for marginally less healthy start to the day! It’s Shrove Tuesday today – aka Pancake Tuesday (aka Day of Joy on a Plate!) but you can eat…

Vegan Apricot and Chia Seed Smoothie

Vegan Apricot and Chia Seed Smoothie

Bibi’s grandma, Shirley*, is going through a bit of a phase at the moment. She’s trying to get rid of clutter and keeps pointing at mad things that I emphatically don’t want and saying ‘That’s yours’. Usually I pretend I haven’t heard. When she pointed to these vintage cut glass crystal glasses though, I said…

Ginger Granola with Quinoa Crunchies

Ginger Granola with Quinoa Crunchies

People who make their own granola have a certain reputation for being smug. And, you know what? The smugness is totally earned. In between playing with my new kittens yesterday afternoon (after my trail race and before triathlon swim training!) I managed to make 2 full batches of granola with very little effort at all….

Chewy Nut and Oatmeal Cookies

Chewy Nut and Oatmeal Cookies

As you know, we Veggie Runners like to make our recipes quick and easy when we can. We also love delicious food that can serve many purposes. This Chewy Nut and Oatmeal Cookies recipe meets all these criteria and more. They’re a doddle to make, freeze well, are really tasty and have a great blend…

Banana and Walnut Pancakes

Banana and Walnut Pancakes

I did it! While mum had some fantastic company, drinks stations and CAKE after her 22-mile training run last weekend, I knew I emphatically would not for mine. I anticipated my longest run before the Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon being a bit of a slog all by myself, but it actually turned out to be a…

Vegan Chia Choc Mint Protein Shake

Vegan Chia Choc Mint Protein Shake

We’re deep in marathon training at the moment (yes, I know that makes it sound like we’re in the jungle, which could be about right – we’re drawing on all our resources and soldiering on even when we’d rather lie down in the shade of a tree and have a snooze). We’re also hungry a…

Apricot, Apple and Hemp Protein Smoothie

Apricot, Apple and Hemp Protein Smoothie

We’re really starting to rack up the miles for our Yorkshire Marathon training* now and getting a bit obsessed with keeping our weary muscles in tip top shape. We’ve written before about the importance of getting some protein asap after a run – Post-run Refuelling – 15 Minute Countdown – and we’re always trying to add…

Quinoa Porridge

Quinoa Porridge

  One of our lovely twitter followers suggested this breakfast dish and it’s been at the back of my mind ever since. We are big fans of quinoa, loving its blend of protein, iron and micronutrients. The UN like it so much they’ve named 2013 ‘International Year of Quinoa’ – pretty high accolade for such a…

Vegetarian Kedgeree with Smoked Tofu

Vegetarian Kedgeree with Smoked Tofu

Training can be hard work but it also provides a great excuse to get creative with tasty, runner- friendly dinners, such as this vegetarian twist on a classic kedgeree. Traditional kedgeree uses smoked fish. Traditional vegetarian kedgeree doesn’t used smoked anything. Upshot? Vegetarian kedgeree is usually rubbish. Sad but true.  Not this time, though! No, no,…
