Once I finish a workout, I want a quick and easy snack—something that will satisfy and fuel me, but that doesn’t require me to cook. It’s got to have 20g to 30g of protein to support my recovery and help me stay full until my next meal.

After many shopping trips to Trader Joe’s and even more workouts, I’ve settled on a handful of high-protein snacks that are convenient, satiating and enjoyable.
