When a craving hits, you need something fast and Starkist Tuna Creations Lemon Pepper is the perfect solution.

“High protein with no prep and zero cleanup? Yes, please,” says Berger. “This little pouch is zesty, flavorful, and ready to be eaten.

RXBAR Chocolate Sea Salt

When you’re craving something sweet or salty, the RXBAR Chocolate Sea Salt is a must-have. It’s not only tasty and full of protein, but you never have to guess what you’re eating. It’s made from limited ingredients that are listed on the front of the package: egg whites, almonds, cashews and dates.

“The Chocolate Sea Salt flavor hits that sweet-and-salty craving hard without tasting like punishment,” Berger says. “It’s chewy, dense, and makes you feel full in a “that was a real snack” kind of way. Ideal for a grab-and-go breakfast or that 3pm nosedive. But with no sugar crash in 30 minutes from now.”

Two Good Strawberry Yogurt

Yogurt with fruit is usually something to avoid since it’s loaded with sugar and questionable ingredients, but Two Good is different. The brand has a zero sugar line and “with 13g of protein, it’s the unicorn of the yogurt aisle,” says Berger. “Creamy, satisfying, and sweet enough to feel like a treat. Toss one in your lunch bag or keep a stash in the fridge for that 4pm craving.”
