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!

What are everyone's thoughts about using Egg-nog and Captain Morgan as a recovery drink?
:D
I don't know. I hear the bent-leg side effect can really mess up your swim stroke. However, it may be beneficial for breaststroke! :bump:

Fine choice, I would say.
Not having any spiced rum on hand, I've been using Malibu as a substitute. The recovery benefits are absolutely incredible. Oh yeah, tastes pretty good too!
Have you ever seen how they make wieners. My wife experimented once and cooked up some chicken skins and walla they looked exactly like chicken wiener filling. When I was a kid I used to go to the local meat packer, saw them making wieners yuck.
Weiners are mostly fat and have lots of salt. You should see what they grind up and add to these things.
The gas station puts them on those rolley things called hotdog buns. Not very appetizing, a slosh of mustard, relish, and ketchup add to the taste.
During the war when we could not get all foods, ketchup sandwiches tasted good. We even enjoyed miraclewhip sandwiches with relish. I am sure they were as nourishing as a hotdog. Probably tasted as good as a hot dog.
I like greasy breakfast food after a hard workout. Waffle House is preferred, but when pressed for time any of the fast food chains' breakfast sandwiches will do. :agree:
What? No chocolate?? :D
