Are you a swimmer struggling to get enough protein in your meals each day? Try adding protein rich snacks into your diet. Check out our top five protein snacks below!
- Making your own protein snack pack. Use a bento box or any tupperware! Fill it with snacks like hard boiled eggs, hummus, carrots, and your favorite nuts like almonds or walnuts. You can make this customizable to whatever foods you like. Swap all the foods for mixed berries, cheese, any Simple Mills Crackers and your favorite nuts.
- A staple snack can be your choice of nut butter with a rice cake or an apple. Another great choice is a greek yogurt bowl topped with nuts, berries, granola or anything you would like. Cheese and crackers can be a simple snack full of protein as well.
- Chomp Beef Sticks come in different flavors like beef and turkey. This snack has 9-10 grams of protein, is keto friendly, has zero sugars and no additional fillers. These make for an easy snack when you are on the go and need something that will keep you full.
- Cottage Cheese, Peppers and Simple Mills Crackers. This snack hits protein, carbs and fiber! Simple, easy and quick. Cottage cheese is full of protein and calcium. Peppers are full of vitamins A, C, potassium and fiber. Simple Mills Crackers are a healthy option for carbohydrates that are not filled with Omega 6 oils.
- Protein Bars are simple and easy when you are on the go or don’t have time to pack a snack before practice. Opt for brands like RX Bars, GoMacro Bars and Aloha Bars that don’t have a lot of artificial flavors that create inflammation.
