This makes quinoa a great alternative to animal protein for vegetarians.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Try it in stuffed courgettes for a filling post-workout meal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul class=\"rotator-panels link-bogr1 linkro-ccox\">\n<li>\n<p>          <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/04\/28\/12\/3FB0FD5B00000578-0-image-m-25_1493379523821.jpg\" width=\"62\" height=\"60\" \/><span>Pizza lovers rejoice!

TURKEY\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Not just for Christmas, turkey makes a great midweek meal all year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This lean white meat is a top choice for anyone who\u2019s upping their activity, as it also contains B vitamins and selenium (which helps protect against tissue damage) and phosphorus (which helps harness food energy).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Turkey works well with a host of flavours \u2013 we love using it in meatballs and adding some chopped kale, for fibre. Serve with wholewheat pasta and a tomato sauce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span class=\"mol-style-large femail-ccox mol-style-bold\">4.

OATS\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Eating a decent breakfast is always important, but even more so when you\u2019re exercising.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Oats have a naturally low GI, so a bowl of them provides you with a slow and steady release of energy throughout the morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Oats also contain a soluble fibre called beta glucan that binds to cholesterol-containing bile in the gut, preventing it from being re-absorbed. Because of this, the body produces more bile from blood cholesterol, thereby lowering it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">If you\u2019re pressed for time in the morning, make overnight oats. Layer oats with 0 per cent fat natural Greek yogurt or skimmed milk, leave until morning, stir in berry compote and they\u2019re good to go.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span class=\"mol-style-italic\">For more fitness foods, pick up the June issue of the Weight Watchers magazine on newsstands next week.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\n<p>            <!-- ad: http:\/\/mads.dailymail.co.uk\/v2\/us\/femail\/food\/article\/other\/inread_player.html --><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"social-links-title\">Share or comment on this article<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"bigLinks sc-icns cleared\">\n<li class=\"share-facebook\">\n<p>                                    <span class=\"wai\">e-mail<\/span><br \/>\n                                <\/a>\n                            <\/li>\n<li class=\"share-icons\" id=\"shareLinkBottom\">\n<p>                                <\/a>\n                            <\/li>\n<li class=\"social-stats social-stats-pipe\" id=\"shareCountBottom\">\n<\/li>\n<li id=\"addCommentButton\" class=\"add-comment\">\n<p>                                <\/a>\n                            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>            <!-- NOTE: WARNING: render-partial is a function --><\/p>\n<ul class=\"rotator-panels\">\n<li class=\"new shallow-ac mini link-bogr6 linkro-wocc\">  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/05\/02\/06\/3FD685B600000578-0-image-m-12_1493702385245.jpg\" alt=\"Mike and Heather Martin uploaded a video in April apologizing for an earlier 'prank' video of Mike's son, Cody\" width=\"154\" height=\"115\" \/><span class=\"wocc bdrcc\">Cruel YouTube father and stepmom who filmed themselves&#8230;<\/span> <\/a> <\/li>\n<li class=\"new shallow-ac mini link-bogr6 linkro-wocc\">  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/05\/02\/12\/3FDB742600000578-0-image-a-49_1493726028376.jpg\" alt=\"One of the images by New York-based Yigal Ozeri shows a woman gazing upwards as she sits in foliage in front of a tree in an autumnal scene\" width=\"154\" height=\"115\" \/><span class=\"wocc bdrcc\">Can you spot what\u2019s so incredible about these&#8230;<\/span> <\/a> <\/li>\n<li class=\"new shallow-ac mini link-bogr6 linkro-wocc\">  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/05\/02\/09\/3FD8DD4800000578-0-image-m-37_1493714758067.jpg\" alt=\"The video, believed to have been filmed on a Japanese ANA flight, was posted online yesterday\" width=\"154\" height=\"115\" \/><span class=\"wocc bdrcc\">In-flight fight night!
