Run to Eat

With upping my mileage, even though it has been a few weeks since I have done a long run:), I am obsessed with eating, so here are more recipes. The first one is a 2009 post from the Pond family, but so worth the re-post!

1/4 of a red onion, finely chopped

2 T cilantro, finely chopped

1/4 of a lime, juiced

1/4 t salt

Combine all ingredients into a bowl, mash together until smooth.
