Post Work Out Protein

Hello All!

Lately, I've been working out at Equinox 3-5 times a week.  I'm getting ready for the 100th Annual Bay to Breakers foot race in San Francisco with my mom- 12K.

With a little inspiration from the traditional "eggs rancheros" and Eggs over toast I've created a delicious healthy pre or post work out snack!   Today I made this late in the afternoon and cut all the ingredients in half so I wouldn't be full for dinner!

What you'll need:
  • 2 slices of Wheat Toast
  • 2 eggs or 4 Egg whites
  • 1/2 Avocado sliced
  • Spinach
  • 1 Spoon full of fire roasted salsa
  • 1 Spoon full of Sour Cream
  • 1 Spoon full of shredded Mexican cheese mix
  • 1 Spoon full Olive Oil 
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

  • Put the bread into the Toaster.
  • Heat Olive Oil in frying pan
  • Cook eggs- to desired consistency. (I prefer egg whites, or over medium eggs)
  • Once the eggs and toast are done, layer toast with: spinach (raw or lightly sauteed), eggs, cheese, sour cream, Avocado then Salsa. 

Enjoy!  Today I enjoyed this with a serving of O.N.E Active Lime Coconut Water.

This meal gives you the protein needed after exercising and is light enough for a snack or breakfast!  It really has become one of my favorite quick fixes!!!

Enjoy!
