Good morning. The Paris Olympics are underway. To celebrate, we’re identifying recipes that match the aura of three of the games’ most electric athletes.\xa0

Sha’Carri Richardson:
She might not break the world record set byFloJoin 1988, but Sha’Carri is the fastest woman living—and the odds-on favorite to win next Saturday’s 100 meter dash. With an expected race time of just over 10 seconds, the American sprinter moves quicker than your eyes can blink—which is exactly how I describe making thisbuffalo-glazed salmon.

LeBron James:
LeBron—who will turn 40 this year—remains one of the greatest basketball players on the planet. He may no longer be the gravity-defying athlete that dunked everything in sight at the Beijing games, but the two-time gold medalist can still provide Team USA consistent results during the tournament’s most critical moments. Do you know what also always comes through in the clutch? Thischickpea veggie bowl with peanut dressing.\xa0

Simone Biles:
Earlier this morning, Simone Biles began her quest for additional olympic hardware. If she wins a single medal (she will, she’s Simone Biles), the four foot, eight inch, Ohio-native will pass Shannon Miller to become the most decorated American gymnast of all time. Put plainly: She’s the best at what she does. And so is Marcella Hazan, whosetomato sauce reciperemains the best we’ve found.
