When hunger pains hit, the search for a quick fix is on. But, munching donuts or crunching chips won’t keep you full for long. Instead, choose healthy foods that fill you up (not out) with nutrients such as protein and fiber. Bonus: Most of these foods are portable and are perfect for on-the-go eating.

  • Apples
  • Bananas
  • Beans
  • Broth-based soups*
  • Celery sticks filled with peanut butter and topped with raisins (Yep, Ants on a Log.)
  • Cottage cheese with pineapple
  • Eggs (hard-boiled eggs are the perfect portable snack)
  • Nuts (1 oz.)
  • Oatmeal
  • Popcorn (keep it plain and simple, no butter)
  • Veggies with hummus
