Lunch Prep

I came across this recipe looking for some way to eat more of the seitan that I make. Especially as I found a new recipe for it that incorporates lentils and yields a sort of steak-like patty that tastes really good. Plus, I'm nailing my protein goals every day with this, and in general I'm okay with eating similar meals every day or week.
Seitan and Pasta with Peanut Sauce
The pasta and seitan really drink up the sauce, so I'm going to try adding cauliflower puree' and vegetable broth to stretch it a little, but it's not unpleasantly dry. I found it did kind of need some extra salt to finish, as well. Since I make my own seitan I almost always have some in the freezer, meaning this is entirely made from pantry staples for me.
Now, I like a long run as much as anyone, and I'm always looking for something to challenge myself with, but this is not a race I want to do. The Sri Chimnoy Self-Transcendence is a 6-month daily run around a single city block in New York totals 3,100 miles. "Some runners report having out of body experiences during the race." Gee. I wonder why. But I will take a pass on that one.
In the realm of "totally do-able" running, I found out there are almost-daily fun runs are different Disney World resorts! Most are 3ks, meaning about 1.8 miles, fifteen bucks to enter, and finishers receive a small prize like a pin or coupons for free food. Since "eat and run" is sort of a personal mantra for me, I'll take a plate of Mickey Beignets with gratitude.
