Welcome to Friday’s For The Love of Food, Summer Tomato’s weekly link roundup.

Better late than never, right?

This week food prescribed as medicine, pesticides poison farmers, and GMO labels are coming.

A note from Darya:

Big news! Our very own recipe guru Elyse Kopecky’s amazing new cookbook Run Fast Eat Slow is out in the world.

If you’ve been cooking Elyse’s recipes here at Summer Tomato for the past few years you already know how freakishly delicious everything in this book will be.

Even more exciting is that this book is specifically designed to nourish you for optimal athletic performance. Elyse’s co-author is world class marathoner and 4-time Olympian Shalene Flanagan, who credits a real foods approach to helping her perform at her best.

Together Elyse and Shalene have created over 100 nourishing and delicious real foods recipes that any home chef can make with ease.

Check out Run Fast Eat Slow today and show your support by attending her book events and checking her out on Good Morning American this Thursday.

Congratulations Elyse!
