Top off your tank.
As an athlete you should be aware that it is wiser to eat many small meals throughout the day rather than eat a huge breakfast, lunch, and supper. Below is a list of smart snacks to keep your tank topped off. Remember.......graze throughout the day.
- Cereal, with or without milk
- Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
- Hard and soft pretzels
- Baked potato with low fat cheese
- Crackers with peanut butter
- Muffins and bagels with jam and low fat cream cheese
- Sports bars, breakfast bars, low fat granola bars
- Yogurt with fruit......Mmmmmm, yogurt!
- Bowl of soup with crackers
- Pasta or bean salad
- Fresh fruit, low fat cheese, and nuts
- Cottage cheese and fruit
- Instant breakfast mix and fruit
- Tuna salad and crackers
- Hummus and crackers or pita bread......Hummus is smashed up chick peas.

Enjoy!
