In reading Tony's new book "Bring It", he has a section called "Creating Your Meals". It is really helpful for anyone looking to not only eat healthy, but have fun doing it.
There is a part on page 237 titled "Soup: It's What's for Breakfast". Immediately, I thought that to be pretty off the wall. But as I read it, he made perfect sense. Soup is filling, nutritious, and it tastes great. It is full of protein, vitamins, and the types of carbohydrates you need to compete. Getting a healthy meal to start your day is a key to any fitness program, so having soup simply is a good idea. As Tony says, soup for breakfast is also a tradition in many parts of the world.
Obviously, make sure the soup you pick is homemade and low fat. I don't think he is talking about clam chowder. :)
Have a great day everyone.
Bill
