What are some good and healthy meals or snacks I can eat that have a lot of protein in them?

Posted on March 6, 2010 by admin

I exercise 4 day s a week for 4 hours and it makes me really hungry when I get home. I need to eat a lot of protein and healthy food.
What are some good balanced meals that I can eat. And what are some snacks that are healthy for you?
Is peanut butter healthy?

peanut butter is healthy yes it has a lot of fat but, it is the good fat. spread some peanut butter in an apple quarter and yum.
Also beef jerky is good along with string cheese.
Hummus on pita bread is very good.

    Nuts are healthy and good for you in moderate quantities. But beans are even better. Get some roasted edamame or chickpeas. They even have them in wasabi flavor! Here’s a great site where you can order all sorts of snacks, including roasted beans, toasted corn kernels, pumpkin and sunflower seeds — all kinds of healthy goodies:

    Peanut Butter is healthy and a great source of protein for a hunger-stopping snack. With all your exercising, a glass of milk is also a great post work out snack.

    Try some of these other snacks that have protein.

    2. Power Bar — I prefer Clif Luna bars
    3. Yogurt– Plain with a teaspoon of fruit spread
    4. Yogurt parfait with fresh fruit
    5. Hard boiled egg
    6. Carrots and hummus
    7. Red, yellow, orange bell peppers with hummus
    8. Sugar snap peas with hummus
    9. Cottage cheese and apples
    10. Peanut butter and celery
    11. Peanut butter and crackers
    12. Peanut butter on a banana
    13. Cashew butter on crackers with fruit
    14. Trail mix with almonds, raisins, dried apricots, cereal
    15. Glass of Milk
    16. Whole Almonds
    17. Fruit smoothie made with yogurt
    18. Piece of whole fruit with almond butter spread on it
