For lighter options and snacks:
o A handful of nuts and a piece of fruit
o A protein shake
o A yogurt (greek yogurts have a higher protein content)
o A smoothie (greek yogurt, fruit and anything else you fancy adding!)
o Hummus and veggie sticks/wholemeal pitta
o Hardboiled egg and spinach salad
o Homemade protein/energy balls
o Rice cakes with nut butter and banana
For a more filling option:
o Wholemeal wrap with chicken/turkey/tuna and salad
o Falafels and salad
o Chicken and vegetable pasta with a tomato sauce
o Vegetable omelette
o Poached eggs on granary toast
o Soup and brown bread
o Baked potato with beans
Plus, don’t forget to stay hydrated throughout your class and afterwards with plenty of water!
