It’s Crunch Time!
I wandered over to Trader Joe’s today at lunch and picked up these Savory Thin Mini Edamame Crackers that have been eyeballing me for a while. I needed a little crunch in my life.
The nutrition info on these guys is pretty good:
Calories: 120
Fat: 2g
Sodium: 180g
Carbs: 21g
Fiber: 1g
Sugars: 0g
Protein: 3g
Not too shabby for a ’snackish’ kind of food, and the ingredients have nothing crazy. They are crunchy, and they definitely taste like edamame.
The best part is that the serving size is 38 crackers.
These crackers remind me of a hybrid Bugle + Asian rice cracker. They are quite tasty by themselves, but I paired them with my favorite TJ’s hummus with freshly ground horseradish.
Yum!
The wonky leg report:
Last night’s short trial run (pun intended) outside with the wonky leg went pretty well. Today nothing feels especially more or less weird than it felt before. However, I can confirm that I am most definitely sore in places that I haven’t been sore in ages. I’m not sure if the soreness is a result of my trip to the PT yesterday, the 13.5 mile steady incline bike, or the 2 short runs. I’m leaning towards the bike ride.
Tonight I’ll do a little strength training and do another epsom salt bath!
Hope everyone is having an awesome day!

You know that “bite” that you taste when you eat a regular radish?? Horseradish is a root that has that same kind of kick, only a little spicier. Horseradish is in the same family as wasabi, but it’s not quite as spicy as wasabi. It does have that warm “clear your sinuses” type of spiciness though, not like a pepper-based hot sauce.
I also buy prepared horseradish, which is vinegar and horseradish mixed together, and spread it on hummus and cheese sandwiches for a little kick. Horseradish mustard is also yummy. I think I just love horseradish. lol.
