    bacon (or Canadian bacon) egg white and cheese sandwich.. high protein yogurt with granola.. These are snacks but really my "break fast" at mid morning.

    I had to look up what hasenpfeffer was.. funny :)

    I always have about 50g of high fat yogurt (10%), some berries, and 15g of all bran buds. I find that fatty foods keep me fuller for longer than anything else. That snack is only like 150 cals and it's delicious.

    I agree healthy fats are the way to go.

    Banana, all the way. If you have no medical condition that precludes you from enjoying whatever sugar level you so desire, a banana is a great easy food for a quick burst of energy and a number of good nutrients. If you'er lacking in a macro, you can do a quick google search for "foods high in X" to get some good ideas.

    I bet if you reduced the carbs and upped the fat in your smoothie it would keep you full longer. What does the Horlicks provide?

    I have a tablespoon of peanut butter and 2 servings of Ritz crackers as an afternoon snack. It keeps me full until it's time for my lunch, which for now is a protein bar. I eat lighter during the day so I can eat a larger dinner and a late night snack while I watch a little tv to decompress from the day.

    I keep pumpkin or sunflower seeds in my desk. A tablespoon (~50 calories) is usually all I need to carry me through to lunch.

    I make peanut butter protein bars on the weekend and bring them to work as my mid-morning snack (peanut butter, crisps, oats, dark chocolate, coconut oil, whey protein). Easy mid-morning snack. If you don't want to make meal prep and just looking for something quick, a lot of great suggestions so far here.
