Savory pre and post workout breakfast ideas?

Hi Team,

My partner, who is a cyclist and a runner, is looking for healthy, savory (not sweet) things to eat pre and post workout.  She loves and craves protein and would rather eat something like half a chicken breast after a hard workout and no carbs.   She knows that carbs are important, though, but can't tolerate much of anything sweet - it makes her nauseated.  Just the opposite of me.    Does anyone in the Haus have any good ideas?

  • perhaps check out the athlete's palate cookbook? lots of recipes, and each has a training/recovery designation.

    I feel like I've seen/read breakfast type stuff with brown rice or quinoa... hmm... I'll try to remember where. Maybe some sort of healthy version of home fries/hash browns... to eat with eggs/an omelet/frittata...

     

  • I'll have to look at that book, Becky. We have it and it's sitting on the shelf - time to revisit.
