Tuna Rolls

I was feeling great after a 12 mile run with an ave pace/mile of 7:27 so I wanted some healthy grub to keep my high going.
A chunk of tuna in the fridge was calling my name...
After marinating the tuna in a little gluten free soy sauce and lime juice, tyler seared up the seafood (just seared, we like it RARE) while I sliced and diced some plants. Carrots, romain, red onions, cilantro, mango, and cucumber along with slices of tuna got rolled up in rice paper. I dipped them in a bit of sweet pepper sauce and devoured them.

It's easy to come home from a run and scarf some junk food to replenish, but sometimes...usually... its worth the effort to prepare a fresh, clean meal.

Post Run Meal

I just finished a 14 mile run. Due to heavy wind gusts, I logged these miles on a treadmill. Boring, but still effective. And still deserving of a good post run meal. This has got to be one of my favorite options.

Best part is it is very simple to prepare this when you're exhausted after a hard effort. In just 5 minutes you can have a healthy meal to fuel your recovery.

Used here...

Brown rice bread (I like Food for Life)
Garden vegetable cream cheese
Alfalfa sprouts
Roma tomatoes
Smoked salmon
Dijon mustard

Toast the bread, then assemble the ingredients. Ta Da! You have a meal! Easy as that.

Salmon is a great ingredient for athletes. It is very high in omegas which boosts oxygen flow, clears free radicals, and improves your mood. I love having smoked salmon on hand b/c of how easy it is to incorporate into meals without having to cook a fillet.
