Nuts are the perfect portable snack food. Bit size and easy to travel with, these guys are protein packed, capable of holding you over between larger meals. Don't be scared of the amount of unsaturated fat. Nuts are a nutrient dense food. It'll take awhile for your body to process them, leaving you fuller longer. The only caveat is watch sodium content. The best kind are natural (like almonds or pecans). Almonds are particularly good for me because in natural form they have a sweet taste but aren't too chewy. Do be careful about serving size. An average serving of almonds is 28 and there are roughly 40 peanuts in a serving. I also like putting almonds in oatmeal. As for the portability, almonds are great for carrying along with you on longer workouts that require you to refuel as well as long walks, etc. Nuts are my go to snack and one of the most consistent things I've ate throughout my weight loss. Tomorrow, whats in a pasta?
Til then, in good health
