Whole-grain protein bars
Protein: 10 to 15 grams
This is an easy-to-carry snack. The most important thing when it comes to whole-grain protein bars is to read the label carefully, because some are loaded with fat and sugar. You better aim for a bar with about 10 to 15 grams of protein with at least 5 grams of fiber and less than 15 grams of sugar. Luna Bars are one good choice.
Roasted chickpeas
Protein: 7 grams per quarter-cup serving
Roasted chickpeas offer you 5 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber, for only 120 calories per serving. The good news is that a daily serving of dietary pulses like chickpeas – as well as peas, lentils and beans – can lower LDL cholesterol levels. You can make your own by mixing rinsed and drained chickpeas in a bowl with olive oil and your choice of spices and then baking them in an oven preheated to 425 degrees for about 45 minutes.
