Hummus
For a tasty, on-the-go snack that’s high in protein and calcium, pick up a container of this Middle Eastern favorite along with some precut veggies at your market or health food store. “Hummus is a kind of luxuriant and decadent snack and it’s also convenient.†Be aware, that many of the commercially prepared brands add olive oil or another good fat, but this still affects your fat quota for the day.
You can whip up a fresh batch of hummus yourself in your food processor or blender. Just toss in some chickpeas, a bit of tahini paste, water, minced garlic, chunks of celery, lemon juice and sea salt to taste and you’re good to go. For an extra shot of flavor, add chopped sun-dried tomatoes.
