Trader Joe's Raw Almonds

 

Nuts are a great high-protein snack for weight loss, and almonds and pistachios have more protein than other nuts. Just make sure you count them out (a serving is about 23 almonds) so you don't over-do it.

Trader Joe's Beef Jerky

 

Natural jerky is a low-calorie, high-protein snack option we love. It's chewy so you have to take your time eating it.  One serving has 11g of protein!

Trader Joe's Raw Pumpkin Seeds

 

Pumpkin seeds are high in protein, fiber and zinc (great for your immunity!). A serving contains about 8 grams of protein and are very filling.

Trader Joe's Deli Meats

 

Deli meat roll-ups are a healthy, high-protein snack for weight loss. Roll them alone, with veggies like cucumber, or with low-cal cheese options like Swiss.
