Chef Teren Green, or “Chef T” as athletes call him, is a top performance chef responsible for providing the healthy fuel for professional athletes. He’s been the team cook of several pro teams and was the man behind the stove for the U.S. women’s soccer team’s 2019 championship run.
Part of what makes a winning team is having a winning diet. Chef T is an expert at using recovery foods like peanuts to get athletes the meals needed to keep up their nutrition.
His Udon Noodles with Peanut Chili Sauce is an ideal dinner or lunch for athletes after a hard workout or game – and pairs perfectly with his recipe for Chicken Skewers with Peanut Chili Sauce (especially since you can use the same sauce for both).
Meals don’t come much more nutritious than this with the likes of carrots, mushrooms, edamame, bell peppers, peanuts and more included.
