Best non-shake post workout meal

[Sim882]

I'm not really a fan of having a protein shake after weights, not because the whey power shake doesn't taste good, but simply because having to injest the 50grams of dextrose (I weigh 65 kilos so this is my suggested carb intake).

What do people recommend as a food alternative to protein shakes?

I'm currently expermienting with tuna & Desiree potatoes (GI 101). What do people think? Does anyone think a food combination can be as good as a shake or suggest a better PWO food combination

you don't need to spike insulin levels, but for most people that is ideal..

anything high GI will get the job done, I just use malto in my shake and it still tastes really good..
