Welcome to the first post of the IronClad Nutrition blog!
This blog will be dedicated to any and all nutrition related topics with a major focus on day to day sports nutrition presented in a format that is informative without the “ho hum” read of many of the more technical scientific blogs or websites.
Having been a Registered Dietitian for going on 20 years, I plan to share some of tips and tricks for body composition adjustment, fueling tactics for workouts, racing and even some of my very own personal favorite foods. You might even see a few tweaked recipes when I am in my Martha Stewart or Rachel Ray mood.
I will admit upfront…….. I am a lazy sports dietitian. What I mean by that is, I like quick, simple foods made with simple ingredients. So if it has more than 6-7 ingredients or requires more than 20 min preparation time it looses my interest. I probably miss out on a lot of great recipes but I, like may other active folks, have overbooked schedules and prefer to use any extra time outside moving my body instead of inside cooking…but hey that’s just me!
So stay tuned. I do have one post that’s “in the oven” and almost ready to be served. It’s one of my all time FAVORITE foods and I am head over heels happy I finally found a recipe that makes this popular comfort food GOOD FOR YOU.
I will give you a hint. It’s creamy and yellow/orange usually very high in calories, fat and refined carbohydrates. Come back soon so you can see what I have cooked up!
