Good recovery meal/snack

For those of you who workout in the morning, what works for you as a recovery meal/snack? I had been swimming every-other-day (because I needed the rest), but I feel more conditioned now and have just about worked up to swimming every day. I am interested to see what other people eat for recovery after a hard workout. (For me, it's wheat toast or a wheat bagel and peanut butter, but I'm sure there's something better out there.) Thanks! :weightlifter:

    The note above about donuts reminds me of Saturday morning workouts in high school. We'd stop by a donut place nearby that had an illuminated sign when the donuts were right out of the fryer. A dozen hot ones and a quart of cold milk - then a long nap..... DV Much the same story here....we also hit up Dunkin Donuts and I'd split a dozen with my buddy or we'd hit Shoney's breakfast buffet and eat our weights worth of food! Back when we didn't know what a calorie was!
