Snack Ideas Please...

[sweetfanny]

Ok, so what are good snacks to eat when I am busy? I am a Dog groomer and work for myself. I don't stop for lunch etc when grooming, so then i tend to eat badly, like handfulls of m and m's, drink coke etc to keep me going. What would be good to eat that dog hair won't stick to?

When I travel and have to grab something quick I always take protein shakes (made in the morning), protein bars, small tins of chop chop.

Cottage cheese is yummy, I sprinkle lemon pepper on the top. Its tinned fish that I gag at, and that is not even eating it, thats just the smell. hahaha

Tried cottage cheese myself and I'd leave it in the shop with tuna.

Used to put sweet chilli sauce on top which wasn't bad, then tried mixing it with weight watchers jelly crystals.

what is the calories in this?

[TapDat]

If you made a protein brownie etc etc thing. As soon as heat hits it, most of the goodness is lost. Becbec gave some good advice imo.

tuna, almonds, fresh fruit, protein shakes (you can pre make these)

infact you can pre make anything and cut it into snack size pieces!!

question solved

[rx7rotary]

Almonds as someone else said already.

Apples / Oranges but if you feel like something more filling, have a banana or buy some of the better protein bars and eat those. as far as i know you cant O/D on protein :pfft:

[SportsGuru]

what is the calories in this?

Per Biscuit (based on mix making 6 & protein powder = 73%)

Protein = 17g

Fat total = 14g Saturated = 2.5g

Carbs total = 13g Sugar = 4g

Fibre = 2.5g

works out around $1.50 per biscuit

Please explain this

[Evie]

If your a snacker BECBEC is right, just pre-cook and cut into snack/bite sized bits. Ie Cooked chicken breast, steak, fish etc - just keep in containers and in a cooler. You could also make mini protein pancakes or tuna fish cakes. (If you don't mind the smell) Boiled egg whites - pre-peeled and remove the yolk.
