High Protein Snacks

[biggs202000]

I have a job where I have to work a 12 hour shift and often only have time to sit down for one meal.

I did a google search which revealed almonds, walnuts, cottage cheese w/fruit, edaname beans as high protein snacks.

I'm tired of eating protein bars and drinking shakes all the time. What kind of high protein snacks do you guys eat/recommend for someone without access to a microwave. And at what serving size?

Thanks for your help.

But what type of protein? If soy I would say "no thanks".

Powdered milk anyone? take some with you in a water bottle, add cold water and you got something that almost resembles milk.

Beef Jerky/Biltong. It is relatively easy to make your own which is free from all the crap they put in the packaged ones.

You can get stuff made of "seitan" which is texturised wheat protein.

Depends on your feelings about gluten though.

Why not just eat cold meat sandwiches?

Canned fish?

Smoked fish?

I bought a half gallon vacuum thermos off of amazon for like 30 bucks. Keeps my milk cold for an entire day. It would keep any kind of meaty soup hot all day as well. Solid foods don't stay hot as long though, because of all the air space left in the thermos. I used to make little 500 calorie snack packs with almonds, beef jerky, and walnuts back when I was doing paleo. Was a decent amount of protein in those, but I don't know the exact amount. As far as cold meals go, tuna salad and pasta was always a favorite of mine as a kid. Basically just boil some macaroni noodles and mix it up with mayo, tuna, celery, and some salt and pepper.
