CHILI + HONEY ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH LIME JUICE #POTATOES #VEGAN
I adore tasty mishaps—and I cherish them much more when they are scrumptious blog-commendable mishaps.
I as of late fell into a solid propensity that I never thought I'd appreciate: running. As much as it feels great physically, it additionally feels extraordinary rationally. There's only something about turning my go get'em playlist (an exceptionally differentiating blend of perky Katy Perry and angsty Hole… ) and hitting the asphalt hard, discharging those endorphins and nerves.
In any case, when running or doing any sort of lively working out, it's basic to fuel up appropriately.
Since I'm new to running, I in some cases experience serious difficulties recalling what I ought to gobble fuel up and what I ought to eat for muscle recuperation.
Thank heavens for the Internet and the majority of its wellness masters, in light of the fact that while looking for pre-run snacks, sweet potatoes came up. As it would turn out, I coincidentally had one hanging out in my wash room and it was developing some intrusive roots (uh oh) so… great planning.
