The Hungry Runner Girl: Burgers and 45 Minutes

Burgers and 45 Minutes

Good news team. I was bumped up to 45 minutes on the elliptical. Better believe I will be smiling away on that big piece of silver machinery this morning as I watch Saved By The Bell and listen to ET by Katy Pery.

Next thing you know it, I will be able to share with you my good ol' sweaty beast pictures after a hard run again. Until then I will give you a recycled 'Janae you need to take a shower because you smell really bad' picture.

Being the dare-devel that I am, I got something NEW at Costco yesterday.

I am that person that gets the SAME thing every time at the store and today I ventured to a new territory.

Wait for it, wait for it........instead of buying frozen Tilapia fillets, I bought frozen Mahi-Mahi fillets. I know, I really took a risk with this one. Next thing you know I will buy brussel sprouts instead of broccoli and romaine instead of spinach (okay, that is a lie.....I could never leave my beloved broccoli and spinach).

As we were walking into Costco a lady drove by and rudly ate a ginormous greasy burger right in front of me as I was standing there starving. How dare she enjoy her beautiful burger when she knew all I could think about was getting home and eating dinner. I mean it had been at least 90 minutes since my egg sandwich.

I couldn't get her burger off my mind, I even hinted to Billy that we should go to 5 Guys for dinner (I don't think he caught on, either that or he didn't hear what I was saying because the 3D tv's on display at Costco were calling his name).

instead I made a mahi-mahi burger at home and I guarantee it was better than car-driving-eating-delicious-burger ladies meal.

I grilled the fish on the george foreman and topped it with a sweet-terryaki sauce, lettuce and pineapple, I was feeling tropical. I also toasted the buns which is key to burger success. I had a can of green beans on the side and closed my eyes as I ate them and pretended like they were 5 Guys cajun spiced french fries. I guess my arteries and my bank account are thanking Billy for skipping the fast food last night.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What was the last NEW to you food that you bought at the grocery store?

-Mahi-mahi

What are your favorite 'burger' toppings?

-Not together: pineapple, grilled onions/mushrooms/pepper, melty cheese, juicy tomatoes.....okay, I could go on forever.

What kitchen appliance do you use the most in your kitchen?

-My George Foreman grill is getting some good use lately. I also use the oven a lot to roast my veggies.

What running shoes are you using lately?

-I am thinking I am going to get the Saucony Kinvara's next, I guess this means that I need to put some miles on the pairs that I have right now:)

At March 30, 2011 at 6:37 AM , Unknown said...: that burger looks fantastic! i've never tried one before but it may go on my list when i hit up costco myself this weekend :) have a great wednesday dear! xo
At March 30, 2011 at 6:40 AM , Jess said...: So I started recently buying freeze dried fruit and it is AMAZING. I am in love.

Lettuce, Tomatoes, Mustard, Dill Pickles, Cucumbers, grilled onions, mushrooms.

Crock pot wins it all. It's too easy for crazy weeks!
At March 30, 2011 at 6:42 AM , scissorbill said...: I love 5 Guys! I have to get the cajun seasoning on the side since I'm the only one in my family that likes it. I took the rest home and the next time I roasted chickpeas I put it on them and they were sooooo good even better than 5 Guys fries. It's also good on parsnip fries-peel and cut parsnips into fry shapes, drizzle with olive oil and cajun seasoning and bake at 350 until crispy.
At March 30, 2011 at 6:47 AM , Running Ricig said...: I do the exact same thing at the grocey. My list rarely ever changes. Though, this week, I swapped out my normal yogurt for greek and my normal oatmeal packets for a giant thing of oats to make my own (gasp!).

I don't really eat burgers, but when I have a veggie burger I like to throw a fried egg, tomato, and cheese on top.

My shoes are brooks adrenaline. I really really like them!
At March 30, 2011 at 6:48 AM , Katelyn @ Chef Katelyn said...: That is how I look EVERY day after a run!! I love it so. much. Especially the endorphines not complaining there:) One day I will come for our treadmill marathon and then we can go to costco and buy every vegetable in the store! xoxox
At March 30, 2011 at 6:50 AM , Anonymous said...: Yum to that dinner!!! My favorite burger combo has to have grilled onions and mushrooms on top - so so good!
At March 30, 2011 at 6:52 AM , Anonymous said...: Yay for getting to do 45 minutes on the elliptical!

Havent tried anything new at the grocery store recently. I need to change that!

I put mustard (which I just discovered last year, I am late to the party), tomatoes, onions, pickles,and lettuce on my veggie burgers. Very tasty!

My blender is getting the most use in my kitchen. I dream of having a fancy blender one day.

I am still running in my Mizuno Wave Riders but I will be making the switch to Newtons soon!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:00 AM , Chunky Monkey said...: Havent tried a G. Foreman grill but I have always been curious. So far I have been successful at convincing the hubby to go grill in the snow and rain...or I just bake. Most used kitchen appliance would be the oven. I love roasted veggies!

Running shoes = Nike Pegasus
At March 30, 2011 at 7:03 AM , Anonymous said...: Fav topping is guacamole!

Most used appliance? The stove

I use Nike free, but may be going back to the gorilla feet
At March 30, 2011 at 7:04 AM , Holli said...: Hi! The Kinvaras are AWESOME! I have been running for 8 years and I finally found the perfect running shoe for me last Fall. Try them!!

I heart our George Foreman grill.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:05 AM , Ashley said...: Yay for the elliptical!!

I have run in the Brooks Glycerin for years now...I love them. They just keep slightly changing the model, but I keep staying injury-free so it works :)
At March 30, 2011 at 7:06 AM , Unknown said...: I just ordered the Kinvara's! I am hoping and praying they come by Thursday so that I can try them out before my race on Sunday...7 oz versus my 10 oz shoes now will make a BIG difference! I'm hoping that my midfoot gait will make it easier to switch. I use the crockpot in spurts.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:06 AM , Coy Martinez said...: OK, lets see, favorite burger topping. I grill my burger and then I put it on one of those wheat thin bread thingys, after it's cooked I add jalapenos, then melt American cheese on top of that and then add Red Hot sauce to it. OUT OF THIS WORLD! eat it with a pickle and it makes it better!

I've switched to running in my Vibrams. Next race...barefoot!! Seriously! I did my first blog on it yesterday! I'm either crazy OR onto something great. We'll see :)

You're cool!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:07 AM , Stephanie F said...: I really like fish burgers. They're such a different taste! Good creation!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:12 AM , BigHappyFamily said...: I just tried beets for the first time ... and I put them in my fav appliance ... the blender. Beets, banana, froz blueberries, greek yogurt, and OJ ... superb.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:17 AM , runkatie said...: That burger looks really good! One of my new years resolutions was to eat more fish and I have been failing miserably. Whoops. I will definitely try this!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:19 AM , Anonymous said...: I just purchased Cod and I baked it, not much flavor, but pretty good and great for you!
Burger toppings....(oh how I miss thee only 20 more days til I can have one again) lettuce tomatoes, pickles, ketchup, mustard and bacon!
Kitchen appliance is probably the oven, I bake alot of stuff for dinner.
Running shoes-Asics I think lol I bought them last year and really don't pay much attention to what they look like except to put them on lol
At March 30, 2011 at 7:19 AM , Big Daddy Diesel said...: - I bought shark at the store, it was on clearance, looked interesting, i have not tried it yet, its sitting in the freezer

- I am boring, bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo

- My Magic Bullet, not just for shakesm but for cheese, salsa, just about anything

- Brooks Beast
At March 30, 2011 at 7:26 AM , Trisha said...: That burger looks AMAZING!! I love the pineapple toping on it. Mmmm...

Favorite burger toppings are grilled mushrooms and onions. I can't get enough of them! I've never even though of trying pineapple, but once I do, I'm sure it'll be on my list.

My offee maker, George Foreman and blender always get a workout around here.

I run in Vibram Five Fingers & I love 'em!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:34 AM , Lindsey said...: That looks really good except that I don't like seafood of any kind....hmm.

I by far use the kitchen-aid mixture the most! Pretty much every day, for some reason.

And if I you ever see me moving in next door, it's probably because I want you to be my running coach!! <3
At March 30, 2011 at 7:36 AM , Run with Jess said...: I just had a Mahi-Mahi sandwich at Hooters on Friday... it was my splurge meal of the week! Yeah, I don't buy much new @ the grocery store. Maybe you'll convince me to shop outside the box. I love pepper jack cheese on my burger! I definitely use the microwave the most, followed by the coffee maker. I'm running in my Asics, as usual.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:37 AM , Chelsea said...: Hooray for getting to up your minutes!!
I'm walking without my crutches now! Hallelujah! haha, thinking about you!
At March 30, 2011 at 7:38 AM , Laura said...: 1. I can't remember the last time I got something totally new at the grocery store. Not because I'm not adventurous, but because I'm so adventurous that I think there is very little I haven't tried!

2. Same toppings as you (not together), except for the cheese - I don't think cheeseburgers are good enough to be worth the extra calories. OH, but the "smokehouse" burger at Johnny Rockets are delicious (bacon, onion rings, barbecue sauce, and Tillamook cheddar). Oh, and I'm also up for BLUE CHEESE or brie on a burger. Okay, I take the cheese comment back :)

3. I use my George Foreman a TON - it is pretty awesome for ANY kind of meat or fish. I also make yummy grilled dessert sandwiches with wheat bread, Nutella, and sliced bananas - SO GOOD. Otherwise, I guess I would just pick my salad spinner (does that count as an appliance? It's a tool, at least).

4. I like the Asics GT-21xx series (2110s, 2120s, etc - they keep changing it each year).
At March 30, 2011 at 7:40 AM , Molly S. said...: Mahi Mahi is by far my favorite fishy fishy fish. Trout comes in a near second. Looks so gooood.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:42 AM , Anonymous said...: The Mahi burger sounds awesome!!!! :D I'll have to try that soon!
We use our blender a LOT here......I eat a lot of smoothies! :D
At March 30, 2011 at 7:48 AM , Britt @ Chicago Runner Girl said...: Mahi Mahi scares me. When I was in culinary school my fish teacher told us that it feeds off the bottom of the ocean and is prone to catching more diseases this way, so I have had a fear of mahi for years.

My hubs sometimes ignores my annoying comments about how we should stop at random places for ice cream or custard or frozen yogurt, I think that he thinks I have the mentality of a child sometimes cause all I can think about is frozen desserts covered in caramel and gummies.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:49 AM , Siobhan McCarthy.ca said...: I want to try mahi-mahi now! That burger looks so scrumptious!!

At the moment I am a New Balance 860 kind of girl. I love them.
At March 30, 2011 at 7:53 AM , Cyndi @ Weightless Life said...: My latest new to me food is Chobani lemon. I think I'm in love with it.

My favorite kitchen appliance is my Keurig. It gets me through my mornings, but other than that I love my garlic press. Is that an appliance?

I'm a bad runner and use the cheapest shoes I can find, but it works for me.
At March 30, 2011 at 8:00 AM , Anonymous said...: woohoo for the elliptical!! and mahi mahi!- ow ow.. we are going crazy HERE! tomato, pickle, mustard and lettuce!
At March 30, 2011 at 8:03 AM , Holly said...: So did you notice a difference between tilapia & mahi? I alway think it's hard to tell..but my favorite fish is mahi! YUM!
My most used kitchen appliance is the oven or blender...both are always in use :)
Hope you have a good day!!!
At March 30, 2011 at 8:07 AM , Anonymous said...: My new food item would be those small yellow mangoes (what are they called?!). They are delicious!

My favorite burger toppings are (not together) BBQ sauce, gorgonzola, bacon, bell peppers, chipotle chili powder.

If I had a George Foreman, it'd definitely be my favorite appliance but our kitchen is super small so I'm going to have to say....my blender/food processor. It's an awesome multi-purpose machine that keeps me happy with smoothies!

Today I did the ArcTrainer in Merrells which felt great. Maybe I should give up regular running shoes for those? ha!
At March 30, 2011 at 8:20 AM , Mallory said...: That burger looks good! I wish I could get more risky with the foods I make. You will be proud though... I've had broccoli THREE times in the past week. I thought I hated broccoli but I was wrong! I even made it for myself last night!!! I'm growing up!

Most used appliance... I guess the toaster oven for bread and english muffins. Lame. I should bust out our George Forman.
At March 30, 2011 at 8:34 AM , Pam @ herbieontherun.com said...: I'm trying to cut back on animal products, so I finally broke down and bought some tofu last weekend. First time ever. I used it to make a tofu scramble with sauteed onions and bell peppers with soy sauce, and it was deeeeeeeeeelicious.

I put a little bit of everything on my burgers...mustard, onion, pickle, tomato, lettuce. Nothing exotic. Just your plain ol' run-of-the-mill burger toppings.

I'm still kicking it in my Mizuno Wave Rider 13s because I've been able to get good deals on them since their 14s came out, but I think everyone has finally sold out of them. I'll be needing a new pair soon, and I can't decide if I want to stick with the same shoe in the 14 model or try something else. I'm thinking I might try the Brooks Ghost 3s.
At March 30, 2011 at 8:34 AM , Ashley said...: I LOVE my Kinavera's! They're a nice balance with the 5 fingers too.. and mine are in bright pink which annoyed me at first, but always make me smile!
At March 30, 2011 at 8:36 AM , Running Mama x5 said...: We get the same exact thing at the store week after week. UGH!! No Costco here though, can you even imagine?
I'm pretty simple, I like onions and mushrooms on a burger. Maybe a little mustard and pickles too.
I have Kinvaras for racing, but I do get shinsplints if I run too many miles in them. I love my Mizuno Wave Elixir for training.
At March 30, 2011 at 8:39 AM , Dana said...: Kale and Chia seeds are new for me and I love 'em! I will eat anything on a burger, but I don't eat beef so it's got to be a turkey burger. Most used kitchen items...food processor, the blender and my cast iron grill pan.

We're shoe twins! Mizuno Wave Riders (just bought the 14's yesterday) and Saucony Kinvaras. I use the Kinvaras for cross-training and track workouts. Not sure if I would like them for a longer run.
At March 30, 2011 at 8:45 AM , Ashley said...: NEW Foods - believe it or not...spinach and hummus! I know, I'm late to the party!

For burger toppings I prefer just cheese, lettuce and lotsss of BBQ sauce.

Kitchen appliance - my small non stick pan(does that count? Haha) or my blender, if we're talkin' real appliances.

As for running shoes, I've never actually bought a GOOD pair - I need some badly! Any suggestions??
At March 30, 2011 at 8:56 AM , Emily said...: You're practically running again! Proud of you for being smart and focusing on a healthy recovery!!

My fave burger toppings are cheese (lots of cheeses), avocado, grilled onions, bacon, peanut butter (seriously, it's delicious) and more cheese.

I definitely use my blender the most for all my post workout smoothies.
At March 30, 2011 at 9:16 AM , Meredith said...: Congratulations on the elliptical!! Running is around the corner!!

I love cheese & ketchup. I'm kinda plain with my burgers...I stick with the basics. Although sometimes I love some frenches fried onions!

I use either my blender for smoothies or my pink kitchenaid mixer! Her name is Rosie... yes I named her.

I stick with my saucony progrid guide 3's. they have worked the best for a while now. But I want something faster... more race-type shoe. I have no clue what to get though. I think that calls for a trip to the running store!! HA HA!

Have a great day, girly!!!

At March 30, 2011 at 9:29 AM , Becky said...: I am too nervous to eat fish! I had the fishy flavor so I am not willing to even buy it in case it is a fishy batch. Such a shame too--fish is so good for you!

And now I've craving a 5 Guys burger thanks to you! :)

I've been sending good thoughts your way and home your leg heals soon. I can't wait to see you rock it at Boston. No matter if you beat your goal of a sub-3 or not, you are an inspiration. I can't even imagine running as fast and as far as you do. You are a rock star.

I've been using my juicer a lot lately.

I've been running in Mizuno Wave Inspires.
At March 30, 2011 at 10:18 AM , Running Girl said...: The last time I went to Costco, I was starving & picked up a few new items, which is rare for me. I usually have a strict list. I picked up spinach potato pancakes? Kind of like latkes, I guess. I haven't tried them, but I'm looking forward to making them for breakfast.

And, now I might be trying that MahiMahi - looks yum!

With burgers, I love: cheese, tomatoes, & mustard. Other things are optional (pickles, lettuce), but I have to have the main three. I once had a brie burger, & it changed my life. So, very, freakin, good.

I'm currently wearing Asics Gel Kayanos (I think?), because I'm a total beginner & they're what I had in my closet. :-)
At March 30, 2011 at 10:26 AM , Amanda@runninghood said...: I have the Kinvaras but I moved into them too fast and had an almost serious injury but I was able to rest and heal quick. I don't wear them much anymore but hope to work my way into them slowly this time. :) I wear Brooks Launch and I got some addias performance shoes for my repeats and maybe races...the adizero or something...

At March 30, 2011 at 10:47 AM , Natalia - a side of simple said...: I recently bought tofu for the first time. I was a bit terrified of it but I'm officially a convert now!

Favorite burger (ok, favorite ANYTHING) topping is and always will be ketchup. Hands down.

My shoes are Nike. That is all I know. But I bought two pairs of them because I just love them so much :)
At March 30, 2011 at 10:53 AM , Brooke said...: that looks DELISH! although i am not sure that i could ever pretend that green beans are french fries, even though i do like green beans. there is just no comparison to the potato-y goodness! heheh

My oven and my crockpot are probably tied for the most use!:)

I love my Sauconys! I have the ProGrid Guides because I pronate:/.

At March 30, 2011 at 11:42 AM , Rene said...: New food - salmon. I know, not very risky but I hate fish. Guess what, I still hate it.
I love some feta cheese on a burger.
I LOVE my Newton's. They are amazing and well worth the investment. I am at the point of getting new shoes and I considered switching to Karhu's or K Swiss but I decided to get another pair of Newtons.
At March 30, 2011 at 11:59 AM , Cara @ EAT. PRAY. RUN. said...: New food - cocoa powder! umm cocoa oats, cocoa in my smoothies, cocoa in everything. Its so good for you and only 20 cals a tsp, yes please!

Fave burger toppings - anything and everything. As a pescitarian usually anything that compliments fish, sundried tomatoes are a recent burger addition, yum!

Healing from a SFX in my foot but still wearing my new asics kayano 17's as I cross train 6 days a week. So ready to be back on the pavement!!!

Congrats on 45 minutes!! I'm praying for your leg to heal. Is that weird? A complete stranger praying for your leg?? Whatever, I'm doing it anyway.

- Bought GF pancake mix - yum.
- I honestly don't like burgers. If I have one, it's loaded with jalapenos and cheese. My stomach then hates me for 2 days.
- We use our coffee maker like it's going out of style
- I JUST bought Asics Pro... Sky... Ride.. er, something. They're bright yellow and I love them!

That burger does look delicious and I am sure it was 10x better than that ladies!

I am in the market for new running shoes, so I will have to look into those! I trained for a 1/2 marathon in some asics and loved them!
At March 30, 2011 at 12:33 PM , Emily @ eat.drink.run. said...: wow your mahi mahi burger looks so good! love the teriaki and pineapple to make it tropical! :) i get into ruts with grocery shopping also and buy the same basics every week. this week i'm at training every day instead of the office which means high class lunches for me - they have amazing roasted veggies, fruit platters and salads! I load my plate high with fruits and veggies (you'd be proud janae- almost as big as your salad bowl!) and dig in! its been nice :)

just bought another pair of asics keyanos - i've been wearing them for years and love them! i did have gait analysis done last week and they said that those are the exact shoes i should be wearing, so that's good bc i love them!

I stick with my Nike Pegasus running shoes. They've done me proud since day 1.

Where do you find the time to cook with your fulltime job, running and blogging. You're a total inspiration to me. I'm a newbie to the healthy living blogger circuit..
At March 30, 2011 at 1:12 PM , Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife said...: I love spinach, onions, and ketchup as burger toppings!
At March 30, 2011 at 1:28 PM , Regina said...: I love mahi mahi- one of my favorites!

Burger toppings- spinach, tomato and avocado slices

I am constantly cooking (comes with the job of farm wife, you know) so all of my appliances are being used! (Especially the coffee maker)

on my burger: swiss cheese, light mayo, ketchup, romaine, red onions & tomato. every. single. time.

newest food: coconut oil! i used it to make tropical granola last week and it's Amazing.

appliance: the stove top.

shoes: sauconys (glide?) if i weren't so lazy i'd get up and actually look to see what kind they are. i forget. i know for sure it's time for a new pair though. i had some major foot pain this morning during my run.
At March 30, 2011 at 2:27 PM , Jen said...: To be honest, your fish burger looks almost as good as a big juicy hamburger! I did't like mahi mahi as well as tilapia. What did you think?
I'm glad your elliptical time was upped although you're doing great keeping that cardio up!
Love ya!
