A practical playbook of 100 delicious, energizing recipes-backed by a sports dietitian and built from whole foods-to help busy families confidently fuel active kids for performance, recovery, and everyday life.

When your kids have practice before school, a game after school, and homework in between, feeding them well can feel like a full-contact sport. Feed the Swimmers (and Everyone Else) is your game plan: a comprehensive guide to fueling your active family.

Rooted in whole foods and a plant-forward (but flexible) approach, these recipes go beyond generic "healthy eating" to deliver what young athletes actually need: steady energy, muscle support, smart recovery, hydration, and nutrient density. A foreword by a certified sports dietitian provides clear timing tips for pre-practice meals, quick carb-forward snacks, and protein-rich recovery options, and nutritional callouts throughout the recipes highlight key ingredients and their performance benefits.

Organized by how families really eat-breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, treats-the book features 100 approachable and crave-worthy recipes, from Cookie Dough Overnight Oats and BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad to Rainbow Sesame Noodles with Tofu, Sweet Potato Nachos, Slow-Roasted Pork Butt for a Crowd, and Protein Cheesecake, designed to meet your kids' nutritional needs with flavors that make everyone excited to come to the table.

Versatile, leftover-friendly, and freezer-smart, the recipes include batch-cooking strategies, a mix-and-match sandwich formula, and build-your-own bowls to simplify busy weekdays. Whether you're feeding a competitive swimmer, a soccer player, a dancer, or simply a hungry, growing kid, Feed the Swimmers helps you fuel their hustle-and feel confident doing it.
