Cottage Cheese is one of the top 5 foods for muscle recovery.

8oz of non-fat cottage cheese has 28 grams of protein
It is naturally a rich source of the muscle building amino acid Leucine, more than eggs or yogurt.
It is recommended to consume 15-25 grams within the first few hours of a work out.
Here is my simple post work out snack:
half cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup strawberries, 1/3 sliced banana and a dash of cinnamon
