Soups and stews are among my beloved choices this time of year. Of course they can warm you up after a hot practice, but their benefits extend far beyond that. If you know what to put in it, your stew or soup can be a positively packed with the protein and vegetables. Not only are they an inexpensive, but soups and stews create best leftovers. I often prepare additional soup and freeze it in a ziplock bag or personal containers to take to lunch.
Soup creates an amazing post-workout meal or snack thanks to its rich content of liquid. Soup aids to replenish your fluids after workouts in a ways other foods can’t, and their salt content is best for replacing electrolytes. Many soups are also rich in the vitamins and filled with fiber, which means they provide a great nutritional bang for your buck. Soup is even simpler to digest for several people, easier to put down after a workout than a solid food choices.
