Protein Snack Ideas

If you are busy men, you will certainly look for something to eat when you are on the go, unfortunately ending to grab high-fat and low-protein snacks. But only supplements like protein powder or protein bars are not the solution; you need some solid food snacks that will provide good protein content. To this end, I will list below the most used protein snacks, referring only to the solid food and not to the supplements.

Peanuts. Peanuts have good protein content and are rich in good fats.

Egg whites. One egg white has only 15 calories, it has no cholesterol and contains four grams of protein. Throw two or three in a pan (with some peppers and onions if you want to make an omelet) for a quick and nutritious meal.

Cottage cheese. A half cup of cottage cheese contains on average 16 grams of protein, 102 calories and two grams of fat. If high protein isn't your ideal goal, then mix it with some fresh fruit for a fast, healthy snack.

Tuna. Tuna is a great source of protein with approximately 25 grams per can. Plus, one can of tuna in water contain approximately 111 calories and is fat-free.

Tofu Jerky. Tofu and soy jerky are usually made from a combination of soy products such as isolated soy protein, soy flour, or tofu, mixed and dried with spices. Look for products with a long shelf life to ensure safe storage.
