Pumpkin soup is a typical autumn soup made in thousand different ways. My favorite taste is a slightly spicy cream with ginger and coconut milk – it has a really unique flavour. It’s a magical soup as it disappears before it’s even ready ;-) RECIPE INGREDIENTS (4-5 servings): 1kg pumpkin 1 l vegetable broth (homemade or concentrated) 2 […]
Lasagna is one of my favorite cheat meals, i.e. dishes I serve myself as an exception from my regular diet or a planned meal before the major race. In such a case the large amount of calories (especially carbs) is most welcome. Spinach lasagna is as good a carbo-loading meal as a regenerative meal after […]
Buckwheat with cottage cheese has that special something. This combination of flavors is really excellent – you need nothing more. Just put it on a plate … or try a little harder and make it a refined dish. For vegans I suggest a green pea puree – equally tasty. And how about preparing both versions at the same […]
I received the recipe for this the omelette from a friend who is a personal trainer.

There comes a time when we find that the longer ride on carbohydrates made us somehow lose our racing weight. It’s easy to just cut calories, throw out all carbohydrates for a few weeks and chew only lettuce. The trick is to make it in a way that the mere thought of another „ascetic” meal makes you drool! And so, my experiments […]
I’ve never met a runner who does not like an oatmeal in one form or another. For me, a day without porridge is a day lost. Rich in fiber, vitamins E and B1 and unsaturated fatty acids, it gives our body a kick for the whole day (or a good workout). Even the simplest oeatmeal is a good mix […]
My recent discovery – a real kick-of-energy breakfast, i.e. buckwheat porridge. It is a great alternative to the classic oatmeal and is equally quick in preparation. It can be served hot or cold, sweet and seasoned with fruit, spicy or chocolate one. The great advantage of this breakfast is a low glycemic index (uncooked groats – IG 40, boiled – […]
Coconut milk has a lot of applications. Along with other plant drinks (soy milk, rice milk, oatmeal milk, etc.) it is a very good substitute for cow’s milk for vegans and lactose intolerant people. It has a very characteristic taste, contains from 15% to 25% fat, and – in contrast to cow’s milk – fiber. Coconut […]
Another recipe I want to share with you is „protein pancakes” – brilliant and simple breakfast providing everything you need for breakfast. The flavour depends on available protein supplement (it can be neutral as well – in that case use your favourite spices – eg. Cinnamon, ginger, cocoa, etc.). Pancakes are delicious on their own, but you might as well […]

There, I found repository of inspirations for delicious breakfasts. And most importantly – the recipes are quick, simple and nutritionally perfect. They are also the […]

I love nuts in every form. This is one of the healthier snacks – a great „emergency” meal in travel, when the only alternative is some fast food. They are caloric, but if you can limit yourself to a handful, they’ll repay a hundred times with the wealth of health properties. Nuts are very popular in the diet of […]
Vegetable and fruit cocktails are a brilliant invention – they’re full of vitamins, micronutrients and fiber, easily digestible and can be made of virtually everything. They are also delicious and quick to make. What could you want more? We distinguish 2 kinds of cocktails: shakes – based on dairy products (milk, joghurt, kefir, buttermilk) – great after workout, […]
