Tonight we had meatballs and marinara sauce topped with ricotta cheese. I know I’ll be eating carbs tomorrow for Sunday’s race so wanted to eat healthy today. Yum!! And so easy!! 1 lb of ground beef, 1 egg, 3-4 tsps of almond flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, red pepper flakes (seasons to taste, about a tsp each) and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese. Form the meatballs and sear on all sides. Top with marinara sauce and transfer into a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. For the last five minutes remove and top with ricotta cheese and return to the oven that’s been turned up to broil for five minutes. Voila!!
What’s your favorite weeknight meal? Do you have any races this weekend? Good luck if you do!!
Cheers!

I hope the half went well!
I make this salmon from Trader Joes. It’s actually farm raised, and normally I only do wild, but it’s also the most tender salmon I’ve ever tasted! I just drizzle it with a tiny bit of honey, sprinkle with some dried dill and sea salt. And I eat it like 4 times every week! I never get tired of it!

Oh yum. I love salmon. The half went well for having had 94% humidity all morning!!!! I was pleased I could finish with only walking the water stops and once at mile 11. Thanks!!!
