Healthy Post-Workout Snacks That Instructors Love

What are the favorite post-workout snacks of instructors?  
Asking 20 cycle instructors how they fuel up when the killer playlist is over, the sweat stops pouring, and they hop off the yellow bike (knowing they’ll be hopping back on again VERY soon).
Here’s what they said…
1. Avocados, and lots of them
Anything that can be paired with avocado! That can range from eggs or toast to chicken or sandwiches or even a margarita… if it has been one of those days. (Maybe skip that last one…until your body has had time to rehydrate, of course.)
2. Protein shakes
Have a protein shake after class - it helps replace lost fluids, carbohydrates, and proteins and speeds up recovery time so that I’m ready for the next workout! 
3. Eggs 
My favorite thing to eat after my weekend morning class is sunny-side-up eggs with slices of avocado and tomatoes - it refuels me.
4. Protein bars
Another favorite thing to eat post class usually a Lara or Quest bar immediately after class. It gives the body something to burn right away and then followed usually chicken rice and veggies to really refuel.
