Not only did I haul my ass out of bed to go for a morning run, AND bike 21k along Toronto’s waterfront… I also made this! Super Salad, featuring: Chickpeas, green lentils, quinoa, green pepper, carrots, celery, radishes, green beans, flaxseed meal, hemp seeds, poppy seeds, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and herbs/spices. I would have added more vegetables, but that’s...
