2. Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, and flaxseeds are high in healthy fats, protein, and fiber.
3. Veggie Sticks with Hummus: Carrot, celery, and cucumber sticks with a protein-rich hummus dip make for a satisfying snack.
4. Whole Grain Crackers with Avocado: Rich in healthy fats and fiber, avocado pairs well with whole grain crackers.
5. Edamame: These boiled soybeans are rich in protein, fiber, and vitamins.
6. Trail Mix: A mix of nuts, seeds, and dried fruits is a convenient and healthy snack option.
7. Protein Smoothie: Blend Greek yogurt, spinach, banana, and almond milk for a nutrient-rich snack.
8. Hard-Boiled Eggs: Rich in protein and low in calories, hard-boiled eggs make for a great snack.
9. Apple Slices with Peanut Butter: A classic combination rich in healthy fats, protein, and fiber.
