3 Plant Based High Protein Snacks

Fueling your body with protein-packed snacks is the key to maintaining a strong and healthy lifestyle. Protein is the building block of muscle, crucial for repair, growth, and overall maintenance. Getting enough protein in doesn’t have to be challenging and it doesn’t have to involve eating meat!

Below are three SIMPLE snacks that pack the protein into your diet. Oh, and they’re DELICIOUS (😋)

GREEK YOGURT BOWL: 38g Protein

Greek Yogurt (1 cup)

PB2 Almond Protein (1 scoop)

Chia Seeds (1 tsp)

Ground Flax Seeds (1 tbsp)

Peanut Butter (1 tbsp)

Unsweetened Coconut Flakes (2 tbsp)

Blueberries (¼ cup)

Greek yogurt with any kind of nut butter? Sign me up. My gut always feels so much better when I’m regularly incorporating yogurt (probiotics) into my diet. Greek yogurt is so high in protein as well - win, win!

STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE: 29g Protein

Plant Milk (1 cup)

Vanilla Nutrasumma Protein (1 scoop)

Chia Seeds (1 tsp)

Frozen Strawberries (5-6)

Frozen Banana (½)

Smoothies are refreshing & I use them as a post workout treat. In addition to protein, the berries in this smoothie give you antioxidants and the chia seeds give you fiber!

CRISPY CHICKPEAS: 7g Protein per ½ cup

Chickpeas (1 can)

Paprika (2 tbsp)

Garlic Powder (1 tbsp)

Salt + Pepper (to taste)

EVOO

Spritz the chickpeas with EVOO, toss with seasonings, & air fry at 400 for 15-20min or until crispy! I crave savory & I crave CRUNCH - these are the perfect solution for these cravings.
