Feed Zone

[Mckinnon]

Hey all, as a sort of spinoff to the protein powder thread so as not to jack it, I though I would share this cookbook that has some good looking recipes in it. It is called The Feed Zone. My dad bought i as he is into cycling, it was written by a cyclist and physiologist (I think?), has some great recipes that I think would transfer well to backpack hunting for all of us including bars. I have yet to try the recipes but I will update you all with my thoughts after I boost the "borrow" (aka steal) the book from my dad!

I should add, I really like what I read because it included a total breakdown of exactly what nutritional value was provided in each meal, from calories and protein to fat etc. The focus of the book was to not only replace what was lost through exercise but to do so through simple and good tasting meals, as well as promote muscle recovery.

I made some chocolate chip, coconut, rice "granola bars" yesterday. Added some honey as well. They turned out pretty well, bunch of other recipes I would like to try, this is a great book

Update: these are NOT good for long term use. They get moldy. Darn

Whip up a batch for hunting camp, and I'll make sure they don't get moldy!

Will do! I will work on the recipe modification as well....
