We're excited to support the team's nutrition program and have the opportunity to talk to more riders, racers and parents about how Medjool dates fit into healthy active lifestyles," said Erin Hanagan-Muths, Director of Marketing, Bard Valley Date Growers.
Natural Delightstm Medjool dates are ultra versatile in a wide variety of recipe applications in addition to being eaten as a whole fruit snack. They fit into every meal and are a valuable ingredient in helping riders and their families eliminate processed sugar from their diets.
"I am always on the lookout for nutrient dense, high-quality REAL foods that can support my lifestyle and racing. While I am not a strict calorie counter, I do stay away from processed foods and processed sugars as much as possible. When we had the opportunity to work with Natural Delightstm Medjool dates, I was in... It was a no-brainer. We have had a blast these first few months trying out new recipes and finding new ways to incorporate Medjool dates into our individual nutrition programs. We're especially excited about the recipe collaboration with team member Rose Grant," said Chloe Woodruff, Professional Racer & Founder, Stan's-Pivot Pro Team p/b Maxxis.
Natural Delightstm has created a team landing page on their website with rider bios, team news, fitness tips and a new recipe collaboration called "Recipes with Rose Grant". The collaboration features a collection of signature recipes created by team rider and four-time National Marathon Champion Rose Grant. The recipe collection is designed to show how Medjool dates can be used in meals throughout the day to support energy, recovery and general wellness.
"Chloe and I are on the same page when it comes to nutrition. We focus on nutrient dense foods that have minimal ingredients and no processed sugars. That's the beauty of Natural Delightstm Medjool dates, there's only one ingredient, Medjool dates! Yet, they are packed with all kinds of great nutrients that I need as a rider and a mom. The recipe collection we put together is based on my day-to-day training diet but they're also recipes anyone could feel good about making for their family. It is important for me to not only eat the right foods to support my cycling program but also be a good role model for my daughter Layla. She's been helping me in the kitchen as my official taste tester!" said Rose Grant, Professional Racer Stan's-Pivot Pro Team p/b Maxxis.
Natural Delightstm also recently launched a Medjool date smoothie nutrition calculator and a DIY Medjool date energy ball builder tool on their website to help people create recipes that fit their own nutrition needs. Each tool allows the user to build their own smoothie or energy ball recipe and get live nutrition calculations as they go.
