Hungry mid morning or later in the day? We all get a flash of hunger at some point during the day, and it can often be when we least expect it. But, whatever you do, don’t reach for the snickers bar or a bag of chips. Be mindful and grab a high protein, low calorie, healthy snack.
Here are some easy accessible options:
Hard-Boiled Eggs: A 78 calorie egg brings in over six grams of protein, and it's one of the easiest snacks to prep. Just boil, chill, store in the fridge, and snack on the go.
Trail Mix: Lean on a hearty balance of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit when you need a healthy snack on the road. Trail mix varies based on ingredients, but you can make your own healthy trail mix with high-protein, low-calorie ingredients to keep you full without overdoing it on calories.
Edamame: Soybeans aren't just an appetizer for a sushi dinner! A great plant based snack with a lot of protein they're only 150 calories per half cup and taste delicious.
Turkey and Cheese: Have a high fiber bran cracker and top with lean turkey, low fat cheese and you can power through the rest of your day. Get creative and add some sliced cucumber or avocado.
Greek Yogurt: Have a small cup and add some berries and a few sliced nuts and seeds. If you have time you can use your blender and make a fast delicious smoothie.
These snacks will keep you healthy and in shape! I love these options and hope you do to!
