nutrient-rich and satisfying snack when you’re craving something sweet.

3. Cottage Cheese
Cottage cheese is much healthier as
compared to other cheese varieties, and if you pair it up with veggies
or whole wheat, you can make a great low-carb post-breakfast snack.

7. Jerky
Whether you’re eating beef jerky or
turkey, this is a satiating and delicious snack filled with protein, and

satisfying.
