Brussel Sprouts

They have more glucosinolates (compounds that combat cancer and detoxify our bodies) than any other vegetable. For a side dish that will make you wonder why you've been avoiding them, slice each one into quarters, then sauté in olive oil with chopped sweet Vidalia onions.
Try this Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts with Pecorino Cheese and Almonds.

Quinoa

This teeny-tiny, grain-like seed packs some serious nutritional prowess. With a mild, nutty flavor and a texture similar to rice or couscous, quinoa is one of the only grains or seeds that provides all nine essential amino acids our bodies can’t produce themselves . And it’s filled with protein— eight grams per one-cup serving, to be exact!

Tomatoes

 

This powerful fruit packs a PUNCH! They contain lycopene, an antioxidant rarely found in other foods. Studies suggest that it could protect the skin against harmful UV rays, prevent certain cancers, and lower cholesterol. Plus, tomatoes contain high amounts of potassium, fiber, and vitamin C. Not to mention they taste great on any sandwich or in any pasta dish!

So next time you go to the grocery store, be sure to pick up this delicious fruit to add a superfood to any meal!

Protein and carbohydrates are essential after a workout to replenish your body and build those muscles. Here are some high powered protein snacks to enjoy after a workout or just in general. The great thing about these snacks is that they will also keep you full and satisfied until your next meal.
