April 17, 200620 yr Does anyone have any quirky little tips on nutrition when you're on the run?Mine: Single serve plastic yogurt containers make great shakers for mixing protein powder when on the go. They're small and easy to carry and don't leak.Respectfully,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."

If I'm going to be dashing, I scoop a bunch into a plastic bag.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player
April 18, 200620 yr I've been bodybuilding for a few years now, and I had the same problem. I turned to nuts and dried fruits, protein bars, protein shakes, hard boiled eggs, half gallons of milk, string cheese, beef jerkey.. etc. Always remember though.. nothing can replace a well balanced protein rich meal.

April 18, 200620 yr Also, on Saturdays or Sundays, I prepare meals that can be reheated all week.One of my favorites:Take a pork or beef roast, and stick it in a slow cooker. Cover it with the sauce of your choice (Enchilada, barbeque, whatever). Let it cook in the slow cooker for 10-15 hours. It should be soft enough after that that you can stir it, and it will almost dissolve into small "strings".You can keep it in the fridge, and when you need a quick snack, just dump some on a tortilla with a little sour cream, lettuce and cheese, roll burrito style (tuck an end), and voila! Instant on the go meal. If you don't choose a really sugary, high fructose corn syrup type BBQ sauce, it's also pretty healthy.Cooking Light also has a REALLY good baked mac and cheese recipe this month that is healthy as well.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player
