I need some ideas for snacks I can have during the day at work. Need some suggestions that have some (not a lot) of protein in them.

thanks!

    I'm not exactly sure what you consider "a lot" vs. "some" when it comes to protein, but here are some of my top fav. snacks..

    * Emerald Natural Almonds 100-Calorie Packs -- they aren't just almonds but are also coated in various seasonings such as paprika, onion powder and garlic powder..and omG..I would eat these all day if I could. But instead :) I just take one pack to work a few times a week. And they have 4g of protein.

    * Blue Diamond Blueberry Almonds -- 144 calories and 5g of protein for one serving/24 almonds; delish!

    * Emerald Breakfast-On-the-Go Nut & Oatmeal pouches -- 180-190calories and 3-5g of protein, depending on which flavor you get

    * Nature Valley Oats & Honey (or Pecan Crunch) Crunchy Granola Bars -- 190cals and 4g of protein for 2 bars; or 95cals and 2g of protein for 1 bar (2 come in a pack)

    * Not high in protein but a GREAT snack -- another one of my top faves and they really mimick regular potato chips or french fries: Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Chips and Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Straws; 130cals and 2g of protein for 38 chips/straws

    My absolute favorite snack, I have it pretty much every morning, is a white chocolate macadamia nut clif bar with white chocolate wonderful peanut butter spread on it. Only a tablespoon though. Yum!

    Pretty much my only snacks are cheese and olives. Sometimes I'll make deviled eggs and eat one of those when I get hungry, but not every week. Also fruit.
