What are your go-to engery foods?

I am a new SAHM and have been working out while DD takes a nap (around noon) But I am having a hard time figuring out when to eat. I usually eat breakfast around 9, but then by 12 I am hungry but don't want to eat to close to working out. I also feel like I am lacking energy by then as well.

Anyone have suggestions on what to eat before a workout and how long before to eat? Also any breakfast/smoothie suggestion would be great too!

    I think how long before you workout to eat depends on you.  I can eat most things right before working out and I am fine, while my husbands needs at least an hour in between eating anything and working out.  Whole wheat saltines with peanut butter is one of my favorite pre-workout snacks.
