Best Morning Post-Workout FoodsBest Morning Post-Workout Foods

1 slice high fiber whole wheat bread with low-fat tuna salad

  • 3 oz. tuna
  • lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. mustard
  • salt and pepper to taste

Tuna, a protein powerhouse, is low in fat (when canned in water, rather than oil) and provides heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

Omega-3s may also boost metabolism—yet another reason to grab a can of tuna post workout. Skip the mayo and try using a dollop of Greek yogurt or a combo of lemon juice, mustard, salt and pepper to keep it nice and lean. Pair your tuna with a piece of toasted, high-fiber whole wheat bread or crackers for an energy-boosting crunch.
