raw indulgence bars! they are 100% raw and organic (made from nuts, dried fruits, agave, coconut, cacao, etc.). and have 7-8 grams of protein per bar (depending on which flavor you get). they are available at most health food stores and are much cheaper than most of the other bars (only $1.79 each at our health food store). you can also make your own trail mix from nuts and dried fruits. i also love hemp milk.
I'm a vegetarian and when I can find them I like Primal Strips (faux jerkey). The mesquite lime and Thai peanut flavors are amazing; the others I don't really care for.

just got back from food shopping. 😁 and OOps, i made a mistake on the name of those raw bars. they are called "raw revolution". the company is raw indulgence. also, if you are looking for a really high protein snack, Cliff makes a bar called "builders" which has 20 grams of protein! i find those kind of hard to digest though. for protein powder, i like "spirutein" high protein energy meal, strawberry. :)
Optimum Nutrition whey protein from bodybuilding.com. It doesn't have tons of fillers like other brands, it's a about 130 calories for one scoop, which has about 24g of protein and only 2g of sugar. The double rich chocolate flavor is the best, and if you mix it with ice its WHEY tasty (haha, couldn't resist that dad joke)!
as nasty as it sounds, i LOVE cottage cheese lol. i eat it right before bed. Its a slow release protein and helps your muscles heal over night while your body is resting. It also makes your metabolism go all night ( well as long as it takes to release and then digest lol) It kills my cravings for anything i urge at night time.
oops sorry. just read that you wanted ideas for snacks that are easy to travel with. hehe mybad!

Wow lots of great ideas here! Cottage cheese at night, that's great it stops your cravings! I went to the raw revolution site and there is a store near me that is on the locator... will stop by and see if I can find them to try a few flavors. Thanks all for the suggestions!
