So I've been struggling with trying to reach my protein goals. I have been using protein bars for snacks, but I would like to find food that's really...well...food. What have you folks been having for snacks?

    i will occasionally consider a tinned sardine as a 'snack'. or a roll-mop.

    Greek yogurt cups are legit. I just eat the plain kind though, as the lactose already present is plenty of sugar for me, and I'm not a big fruit person anyway. If you want more flavor in it, you can always find a protein powder you like to mix in with it.

    Cottage cheese,
    Mini sausages/ hot dogs
    Cheese strings
    eggs,
    biltong/ jerky,
    tuna salad,
    chicken wings,
    meatballs...

    :) plenty of high protein options for snacks.

    If you're looking for more of a food, a bean and cheese quesidilla can be quite high in protein.

    Greek yogurt with a scoop of protein powder. There's about 50g right there.
