Vegan Fitness & Running

If I could take care of my mind, legs, and nutrition, I’d speed recovery, and stay focused and injury-free.

To consider each run not as just the time on the road or trail, but the entire workout experience.

I’m not saying either of these better than the other; I respect both choices. But I know the one that I choose, almost every single time.

Although the foods here are the ones I actually do try to eat every single day, more importantly, I explain how I make sure to eat each one. And by making these foods a regular part of certain daily meals — salad, smoothie, etc. — you can make it an automatic habit that each and every day, the diet you eat is built around not just a random assortment of whole, plant-based foods, but the healthiest ones you can possibly eat.

Feeling, tasting, sensational experiment, etc., are dogmas and not true knowledge as they can be wrong. Objects of perception, therefore, are ruled out of true knowledge.” -Bruce Lee Lately I’ve been talking with friends and family about their personal goals. A common thing I hear from them is they don’t […] You wake up each day.

You wake up each day. So do I. So does Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Tony Robbins. We all get the same 24 hours, and we all need about 7-8 to sleep. We all have to shower, eat and go to the bathroom. After that, there are about 14 hours left each day for us […]

Today I feel great! Hooray for me! Ok… now that you know how I’m feeling right now, what about you? Do you have days when you feel awesome? These are the days in which you should spend a little bit of time doing something that might, at first, seem not-so-awesome.

Vegan Recipes by Angela Liddon

At long last, I’m sharing the recipe I’ve probably made the most since Adriana started eating solids (which somehow feels like forever ago and just yesterday at the same time). I’ve had so many requests for this recipe, but never got around to sharing it because it would always be devoured right away, leaving no time for photos. Last week, I finally made it in the morning so I’d have a bit of time to snap a few shots.   I use the term “recipe” lightly here because I never measure the ingredients for this pasta; not having to measure anything is part of its beauty and ease.

I use the term “recipe” lightly here because I never measure the ingredients for this pasta; not having to measure anything is part of its beauty and ease. I measured it here so you can get a feel for it, but once you do, I encourage you to throw caution to the wind and wing it! It’s really hard to mess up. You can often find me glugging marinara, spooning hummus, and dumping hemp hearts with abandon into the cooked pasta. The quicker the better, especially when there’s a hangry toddler screaming “Paaaaaaaasta!” at your feet.

Anyway, I’m sure we’ll have a mix of “my baby/toddler/kid loved this” and “my kiddo only ate one bite” in the comments—that’s just the nature of the beast. (And by “beast” I mean toddler, in a sometimes cute/sometimes scary kinda way…am I right?) But my hope is that some of you will be able to fall back on this recipe as often as we do. I don’t know what I’d do without it as it’s just so easy. Oh, and yes, us adults like it too, so even if you don’t have kids you may want to give it a try on those busy, too-tired-to-cook weeknights. It’s great paired with a simple side salad and Lemon-Tahini Dressing, which can be thrown together while the pasta cooks.

This pasta goes lovely with a simple side salad and garlic bread. If your little one isn’t a salad fan, try giving them small lettuce leaves for dipping into the dressing. Vegan Recipes by Angela Liddon | Oh She Glows
