Training hard doesn't have to mean fuelling workouts with power bars and protein shakes. "Runner's World" magazine's popular monthly column the "Athlete's Palate" features the dishes of all-star chefs such as Mark Bittman, Jacques Torres, Patricia Wells, and Dan Barber. Now, in "The Athlete's Palate Cookbook", these dishes, along with more than 50 all-new recipes for small plates, appetizers, entrees, and desserts, are presented alongside profiles of the chef-athletes who created them. The first of its kind, this gorgeously photographed full-colour cookbook includes recipes for Chicken with Quinoa Tahbouleh from Charlie Trotter, Braised Short Ribs of Beef from Dan Barber, and Shrimp Noodle Salad from Richard Sandoval. With suggested recipes for all phases of training, this user-friendly cookbook is perfect for any runner, cyclist, swimmer, or triathlete who wants to eat well while training hard.
