How to Have a Delicious and Stress-Free Plant-Based Thanksgiving (Encore Run)
When you’re plant-based and your family and friends aren’t, it can feel like you’re the odd one out.
If you’re hosting and you’re not making turkey on Thanksgiving, your meat-eating guests are likely to grumble. If you’re a guest, you might go hungry unless you show up with a vegan meal to share.
Is there any way to make the holiday gathering go a little smoother for everyone this year?
Let’s find out.
Today, I’m talking with a very special guest, Nick Cutsumpas, also known as Farmer Nick.
Nick is an Emmy-winning plant-based gardener, landscaper, and plant coach. I invited him on the show to have a conversation all about how to have a happy and healthy holiday when you’re plant-based and your family is not.
We go over:
Meal ideas whether you are a guest or if you are hosting,
Potluck do’s and don’ts, and
How to best respond to common questions, without being that angry vegan
And, I couldn’t help myself, we also talk a little about gardening and houseplants, two more things Nick and I have in common.
Welcome to the Planted Runner. I’m Coach Claire Bartholic and my mission is to help you improve your running, your mindset, and your life with science-backed training and plant-based nutrition.
If you need more help, you can order my book The Planted Runner: Running Your Best With Plant-Based Nutrition wherever you get books or request a copy from your local library.
Don’t forget to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for another Mental Strength Minute. Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less.

RECENT REVIEWS:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great listen!
“Recently started listening to Claire and thoroughly enjoy the wisdom she shares from years of experience. As a new but older runner she provides not just inspiration but scientific proof that progress is possible. It’s a great listen!”
AnnaPerrott
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great source of information
“A great mix of topics and a charismatic speaker. I would love an episode on running mechanics, which muscle, bones, ligaments and tendons are activated with each step”
agrancea
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Look forward to this every week!
“Out of the few running podcasts I enjoy, this is definitely my first go-to as new ones come out! I’m a vegetarian and definitely still new to the whole running thing, so this show has been super interesting and helpful along the way! Thank you for doing it!”
