I'm off out tonight to excerise for two hours, I eat around 5, start excerising at 7.. So i need something that is going to give me lots of energy! I have no time to be going out buying foods so everyday food that you would have at home? also I don't eat chicken!! Maybe something containing tuna?

    I don't know anything but:

    good protein for calories:
    Turkey, fish, lean hamsteaks, tuna, and chicken (too bad you've cut that one out :flowerforyou: )

    good protein:
    brocoli, asparagus, okra, beans (black, navy, black eyed, etc...)

    good protein (higher calories):
    Nuts, cheese. lean beef

    This recipe for Moroccan chicken stew is lovely. Easy to make and I tend to make it the day before so that the flavours have time to develop.

    383 calories for a portion so I tend to top it up with a little wholemeal rice :smile:

    mmm tuna, a little sweet relish, miracle whip, bowtie noodles and a smidgen of feta... and of course some red pepper. this is my favorite thing to make then put it in the fridge and when it gets cold have some. its essentially tuna salad... just a little twist.:tongue: the pasta gives you the carbs you need for the energy... it has tuna in it and its really ... filling. and fantastic.

    Doh I really should read more closely. The stew is also nice with Quorn or other meat substitutes
