    TE Community Cookbook on Google docs!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    This morning while reading skinimini's TE cookbook thread, I had a brainstorm and thought to myself "What if we did a google doc and had a 'rolling submission' cookbook open to everyone?"

    So I made up the framework on Google docs this morning and organized it in a way that I feel makes some sense.

    I included sections for Vegetarian, Vegan and Gluten-free cooking so that those who want to see these recipes don't have to wade through other sections. Do you think we need a Dairy-Free and a Low-Sugar section too?

    I also put a note on the top for people to mark their recipes with any special dietary category as necessary.

    There's also a section for cycling specific fueling and nutrition for those that want to share pre-ride and post-ride recipes and tips.

    Anyway, the google doc is ready. If anyone wants to be invited as an editor, just pm me with your e-mail address! I'd be glad to share the editing responsibilities.

    To view the framework, go here:

    http://docs.google.com/ViewDoc?docid...vcq_23ghc9hrcn

    If you don't want to become an editor but would like to add your recipe to a section, just post it in this thread or pm an editor.

    Now that is clever!
    I'm pretty sure everyone knows how to make a PB&J so I have nothing to add at this time but thank you.

    Thanks I've pmed Susan to get formal approval. Worst case scenario I can take down any references to TE.

    Now that I'm back from today's bike ride, I think I'll add my first recipe: Farfalle alla carbonara with smoked salmon!

    For those who have tried to view it, but cannot presently-- I am currently trying to find a way to make it public.

    Alternatively, if you have a google docs account you can log in and request to view the document. Annoying, I know, but it's all there is for now!

    There are currently five recipes, but I may add another shortly

    If available, you want a photo?

    Actually this one you could consider as a contribution.

    At this very moment, I'm making 2 (or 3 I'm experimenting. 0 different things..from scratch for supper. Maybe I should post the photo first in a few hrs.

    It might be a strange cookbook, full of easy and other types of recipes.

    I anticipate it will be strange indeed-- I added "apples with raw almond butter" as an immediate post ride recovery snack. Not a recipe in the slightest!

    I have added your recipe with a picture!

    Ooohhh another thing..

    I noticed that Safari screws up the formatting nicely Everything is all super duper double spaced, which is annoying.

    BUT! it looks all right in Firefox.

    I just snorted in a meeting at work! Serves me right for surfing TE when I should be paying attention.

    Great cookbook idea! I'll try to submit a few recipes later today.
