High Energy Foods - Don't leave home without them!

At times during the day we may hit a slump, get sluggish, need a pickup or a pre or post workout food that is packed with energy to kick our mojo in gear!  Here is a partial list of some real winners:
(Maybe you can comment some others I missed!!)
Sprouts - Good source of protein and fiber
Broccoli -
Asparagus -
Spinach - and other leafy greens
Almonds / Walnuts - Tree nuts are awesome energy sources
Peanuts - love 'em!
Peanut butter - love it!
Soy nuts - protein & Omega-3's
Beans - Just about one of the best things ever
Lentils - see above
Seeds - sunflower, quinoa, and pumpkin
Watermelon - Love this fruit, water, potassium and just down right refreshing!
Berries - a handful goes a long way!
Bananas - under rated in my opinion
My #1 pick is good old fashioned WATER - dont underestimate it!!

What did I miss?  Leave a comment!

Thanks for visiting!
Until next time,
