    Tuna salad. Either make your own or the pre-made foil pouches.
    Almonds or other nuts
    Beef Jerky

    Greek yogurt cups? They come in single serving sizes and lots of different flavors. High in protein, pretty filling.

    I love Cliff Bars. There are several different flavors 240-250 cals though. I typically eat them for breakfast with a piece of fruit. Another good one is to buy a bunch of different nuts, raisins, etc and make a huge bowl of your own "trail mix". Then you can just full up a few baggies on the weekend and have it handy for snacks during the week.

    hmmm....i can think of a few:
    protein bars,
    almonds,
    philadelphia light snack (comes with breadsticks and low fat cream cheese :D ),
    readymade sandwiches,
    starbucks bottled coffee, small bottles of flavored or unflavored milk, yogurts,
    a bag of baby carrots to dip in single serving pack of dips (such as hummus),

    Kashi bars.
    unsalted almonds
    Greek yogurt.

    I just made a great wrap for lunch with cottage cheese and shredded chicken. 34g of protein! If you add seasons to the cottage cheese you can make your own healthy dressing.

    *Low fat cottage cheese with any of the following: celery and paprika, no sugar added applesauce, 1 roma tomato
    *Banana
    *100-calorie packs of almonds
    *Homemade air popped yellow popcorn (1 cup is only about 28 calories!) - add yogurt spread or "I can't believe it's not butter" and a bit of salt
    *weight watchers string cheese (50 cals)
    *Hard boiled egg (~80 cals)


    Salads with Wishbone Salad Spritzers (1 cal per spray!) are great for small meals - add some reduced fat cheese for protein.
