Speed your recovery after a cold winter run with healthy- and delicious- soups
After a chilly run, few meals are more satisfying than soup. Warm and comforting, "soup provides a big bang for your buck," says sports nutritionist Lisa Dorfman, R.D. "You can get lots of protein, fiber, and carbs for not a lot of calories." Research shows that eating soup before a meal reduces calorie intake during that meal by 20 percent, making it great for weight loss. Whether you want a hearty postrun meal or a satisfying prerun lunch, these soups are easy to make- and savor. Each recipe yields two to three servings and tastes even better as leftovers.

Dear Amy,
As I have had a severe dairy allergy my whole life I'd become rather accustomed to disappointment with 'quick fix' foods. Everything either had cheese in it, on it, or didn't taste like much of anything without it. One day I saw the Amy's Kitchen Roasted Vegetable Pizza with a big "No Cheese" on it.
I was amazed.
I've since come to love all your non-dairy products and even appreciate their clear, up-front 'Non-dairy' labeling, it's nice to save a few seconds at the grocery store in between ingredient checking every other item. I'm not one to usually write letters to distant companies but your company makes my life a little bit easier, and my dinners a little more delicious. Thanks.
From Nick

I am 40 years old and just tried my first Veggie Burger from you. I love the fact that it is not soy and is mostly mushrooms, nuts, and other vegetables. The crunchiness gives me a satisfaction that is better than a regular beef patty. I love them!
