High Protein Snack Ideas

High Protein Snack Ideas

• Leftover meat or beans with some veggies

• Canned tuna or salmon are great to have on hand. Try adding balsamic vinegar and a little flax or olive oil. Serve on crackers, lettuce wrap or just as is.

• Roasted chicken (can be bought in the grab and go section at the grocery store = no prep for you), serve with salad or veggies

• Overnight oats

• Greek yogurt or cottage cheese

• Hummus or other bean dips and veggies

• Protein Shake

• Protein Bars (watch the amount of sugar and carbs in some of these)

• Smoothies – be mindful of the amount of fruit you add

• Lunch meats/ processed meats (use occasionally only as they contain quite a bit of sodium)

• Canned beans or beans in tomato sauce with some rice

• Low sodium turkey pepperoni

• Roast chickpeas (the bulk barn has wicked flavours of these to save you the time of making them)

• Protein pancakes or protein muffins…. Protein baked goods (watch carbohydrate amounts)

• Protein pudding (google recipes as there are many out there and even non-dairy versions)

• Boiled eggs

• Protein balls (google recipes just watch the amount of nuts and seeds many of the recipes call for as those are high in fat)

• Left over soup with beans or lentils in it

• Grab and go tacos – ground turkey with taco seasoning fried up and served on lettuce leaves with salsa

• Frozen fish filets as they cook up very fast
