Treadmill . . . ?
My stress-test was drug-induced. A quick-acting concoction that got my heart racing and was easily countered with a small cup of coffee.
Anyway, for some reason, cruciferous veggies get a bad rep, probably because they are gas-producers. That said, for nutritional value if nothing else, frozen is great, but I tend to leave the carrots and corn to the livestock and chow down on the lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, spinach and brussels sprouts.
Believe it or not, with marinara and a sprinkling of parmesan, brussels sprouts sautéed in garlic and oregano make for some interesting meatless balls in spaghetti. Cut ’em in half for a soup additive or dice them into your coleslaw.
