  • Cottage cheese – Well, a single-serving container of nonfat cottage cheese gives you 3 grams more protein than a typical serving of Greek yogurt, with only 110 calories. Plus, it’s one of the healthiest cheese snacks you could possibly think of!
  • Hardboiled egg – Although eggs are often avoided because they are high in cholesterol content, most nutritionists agree nowadays they can be a great power snack or breakfast. It gives you a dose of vitamin D and vitamin B-12, with only 77 calories/piece.
  • Peanut butter pack – Of course you won’t have to carry your peanut butter jar with you anywhere you go, but you can still squeeze packs of nut butter (from Justin’s, for example), and eat it in your lunch break with a banana. It’s super healthy and delicious!
  • Mini cheese/string cheese – You can find some “Mini BabyBel” wheels or Sargento sticks, that are easy to carry in your purse. By choosing these cheese sticks, you’ll get some satiating fat but will save some calories. Also, they’re super delicious!
  • Oatmeal cups – All you’ll have to do is to add hot water, stir, and you’ll have a warm bowl of protein, and fiber-packed oats in a matter of minutes. Plus, it has 150 to 200 calories per serving (depending on the flavor as well).
  • Edamame – This combo of protein and fiber is great against hunger. Added to belly-filling protein, a 90-calorie microwave package of edamame supplies 3 grams of fiber.
  • Roasted chickpeas – A daily serving of chickpeas (as well as beans, lentils, and peas) can lower your LDL cholesterol levels. For only 120 calories for each serving, these beans offer 5 grams each of protein and fiber.
