Today’s guest post comes from Abby Langer, registered dietitian and owner of Abby Langer Nutrition . Her philosophy is that it’s best to eat real food, not diet junk, and it’s the quality of your food that matters, not the calories. No wonder we jumped at the chance to have her share her thoughts on...

I first heard the word gochujang when a trio of chefs opened their baskets to find a tub of it on an episode of Chopped. They all seemed familiar with the condiment, but I was not. I was intrigued — even more so when I learned it was a Korean chili paste of fermented soybeans...
It always makes me laugh when people ask me if I know how to grill. I mean, I don’t — I leave that to basically everyone else I know who loves to be at the helm while I chop veggies. But that’s not what’s funny. The funny thing is that asking, “Do you know how...

I spent a day in Portland, Ore. (after this race … and subsequent wine tastings)...
