New Training Diet

Pepper put away the GU, Ultragen and Gatorade and finally came up with a manly meal that none of his training partners (other than Bill Cragg) would touch with a ten foot pole. In fact, I am not at all convinced that Pep ate any of his own creation. Here is his recipe that makes approximately 8-10 bowls if using macaroni noodles. If Rosenthal is eating then it makes enough for 9-11 bowls...
