Welcome to the well seasoned athlete

The well seasoned athlete is about how athletes of all types can learn to be better cook and eat well.  Here you will find tips and instructions on how to shop for ingredients, choose recipes, prepare delicious and healthy foods from scratch.  Emphasis will be on ingredients, technique, affordability and ease of preparation.

Useful advice on how you, the athlete, can live, work, train, compete and eat well.  Without breaking the bank.

Cooking for yourself is way cheaper than eating out.  That includes eating takeout.  Anything you buy and eat that is fully or semi-prepared (think frozen, prepared meals, or any convenience food product from top ramen to hamburger helper) is going to hit your wallet much harder than if you shop for fresh product and prepare it yourself.

We will provide nutritional analysis information for our recipes as a reference point for making sure you, the athlete, have the information you need to fulfil your particular training dietary needs.

Why we’re different. 

Look around and you will find almost no practical information on how to feed, you, the athlete well.  Nutrition searches will yield often vague and at times hard to understand info on what nutrients you should be eating.  Not how to find them, shop for them, arrange them into thoughtful, delicious menus and not how to prepare them, step by step.

Many information sources will offer the same boring info on the skinless piece of chicken unspecified fish species, broiled or sautéed, a sorry excuse for a sauce, some whole grain concoction or pasta badly done.  While it may be food its not what we really want to eat.

Here at the well seasoned athlete we will break it down, give the recipe life, context and the encouragment  to eat well, everyday.
