Hey there.

Since I am at work for about 11 hours a day, and I don't want to eat 3 meals, that are the same, every day, I need some high protein snack recipes. Normal meals are mostly chicken or fish and vegetables. But I don't have good recipes for the snacks.

Any suggestions?

    I usually pack some dry snacks for the afternoon.
    1/2 cup Fiber one original bran cereal = 60 Cal
    1 oz raw almonds = 160 Cal
    A few pieces of chocolate ~50 Cal
    1/4 cup roasted edamame = 130 Cal (less fat and more protein/carbs than almonds)
    1 oz rice crackers = 110-140 Cal

    Mix and match. I have a cute little bento box I stuff everything into, or you can pack them into a ziplock bag. I usually aim for about 400 Cal total since I want my afternoon snack to be comparable to my other 3 meals. My diary is open if you want to sneak a peak.

    Greek yogurt with fruit is usually what I have for an am snack. Sometimes I change it up with cottage cheese but that is a bit high in sodium

    almonds
    peanut butter sandwich
    proteein drink
    hard boiled egg - egg salad with just egg whites
    edaname
