Apples with a little nut butter (almond or even peanut).

Recently I've been making some chicken salad with canned or leftover chicken breast, 1/2 diced green apple, lemon juice, mayo (I use a mayo made from olive oil, but you can substitute what you like. I just don't like yogurt in place of mayo.) and salt and pepper. Eat it with a pita pocket and some lettuce and I find it pretty satisfying for work. It is also a lot cheaper than the lean cuisines I've been buying!

I love mixing quinoa, some kind of canned beans, and chicken breast that I baked or grilled, spices to taste. Tons of protein and really fills you up!

Cobb salad (or any salad topped with chicken/steak/shrimp), tuna salad, Greek yogurt, cheese, hard-boiled eggs, cottage cheese, nuts, nut butters. Some of my favorite snacks are prosciutto wrapped around avocado slices, or turkey/ham slices wrapped around avocado slices or pieces of string cheese. What about leftovers from dinner the night before?

Do you have any dietary restrictions? I find organic cottage chese (LF) to be a good "Protein bang" per "calorie buck". Also, lunchmeat & cheese roll-ups. when I'm dying for chocolate, I add raw Cacao to Peanut butter or another nut butter with a small amount of honey or sugar.
