Peanut butter and Honey!

Pizza?

whole grain toast with peanut butter and banana (pretty well every day)

eggs

Gets my vote as well!!!

Whatever I can get someone else to pay for...

Wheat wrap filled with almond butter, banana cut up into coins, drizzle a little honey. Heat lightly in microwave. Serve with cold milk. Yum.Good for body and soul.

YUM!!  I'm totally trying this (sans honey...I'm doing the No-Sugar Challenge) this weekend!

No one said anything about pasta yet? Oh my lord.

Toasted whole wheat English muffin with super chunky peanut butter with a little spicy sambal sauce on top. MMMmmm good.

(or the above sandwich, but minus the toasted whole wheat English muffin and sambal sauce, and plus a very large spoon).

My typical breakfast is a half cup (dry) of oatmeal with spoonful of honey, a spoonful of natural peanut butter and a pinch of salt.  Add hot water and mix it up.  Very tasty!

Just don't have it the morning before a tri. It kind of bounced around in my stomach on the run.

I will vote for pb&j too!

Me, me, me!  I alternate between almond butter & natural PB.  My only gripe with almond butter, is the cost...it's way more expensive than PB...so I try to stretch a jar for as long as possible.

Just plain rice?

Or rice with peanut butter?

Rice with honey? 

Hmmmm.....

Beer.

Carbs - check
Water - check
Tastey - double check

I don't really like PBJ, but I do like natural peanut butter on wheat toast or a wheat english muffin.

Don't forget more electrolytes than you can shake a stick at!

People eat too much peanut butter, or overestimate how good it is for you.

I'm allergic, so no problem for me...


My vote is low-fat (or non-fat) yogurt.

Vote on beer... with a little chicken and a little rice.

Suprised nobody has said Tuna. I bought a bunch when I started working out, because I thought it would be an awesome recovery snack, but it's still there, 6 months later. I guess I tired of it pretty quickly.
