11 High-Protein Snacks For Movie Night

November 19, 2018

Protein is an essential nutrient that is crucial for individuals who want to maintain a healthy weight. When you eat protein, your body burns more calories during digestion and it helps your body to build strong muscles. Instead of missing out on all of the fun on your next movie night, whip up a couple of these protein-rich snacks so that you can enjoy yourself without any of the guilt. Read more at Research and You if you are looking for great information on how to keep your body healthy.

Flatbread Chicken Pizza

There is nothing better than indulging in a slice of pizza on movie night. Whip up a pizza base with some self-raising flour and whole-fat Greek yogurt. Top that with some shredded chicken and cheese and you have a great protein-rich meal.

Banana Chia Pudding

Most of us have a sweet tooth and this banana chia pudding is the perfect option. Chia seeds are packed with protein, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and fiber. This pudding is a delicious means to get your body all of the benefits of chia seeds.

Black Bean Brownies

Brownies are gooey and delicious, however, they offer you very little nutritional value. However, by including a can of black beans in your brownies you will be able to significantly increase the protein and fiber content of these treats. The best part? You will not even be able to tell that there are beans in your brownies.

Cookie Dough Greek Yoghurt

It is commonly known that you should avoid eating raw cookie dough if you want to avoid salmonella. But what do you do if you have a craving for cookie dough? Simply add a tablespoon or two of your favorite nut butter to plain greek yogurt. You can also add in a small handful of chocolate chips, some vanilla and a pinch of salt.

Crunchy Roasted Garlic Lentils

If you have a soft spot for chips these roasted lentils are definitely for you. Simply toss your favorite seasonings with a can full of lentils and pop them into a hot oven until they are golden brown and crunchy. Lentils are a great snack option because they are packed with protein and fiber.

Frozen Yogurt Bark

Frozen yogurt bark is a delicious snack option that feels incredibly indulgent, however, it will not add any inches to your waist. Not only is Greek yogurt packed with protein but it will also help to boost your metabolism. Additionally, you will get more benefits from this snack depending on the fruit you choose as a topping.

Guacamole Devilled Eggs

If you are a fan of deviled eggs you should definitely try these guacamole deviled eggs. These party snacks pack a powerful protein punch. Additionally, avocados contain a significant amount of healthy fats.

Beef Jerky

Beef jerky is one of the ultimate high protein snacks. However, it really is worth it to try and make your own beef jerky. When you make this treat at home, you have control over the type of meat you use and the salt content. Give it a try, making beef jerky at home is surprisingly easy.

Salmon Cakes

Salmon is an excellent source of protein. It contains significant amounts of essential fatty acids as well as having great anti-inflammatory properties. Making salmon cakes is incredibly easy, simply mix some flaked salmon into mashed potato. Shape them into equal sized patties. You can then coat them with flaked almonds or quinoa and bake until they are brown and crunchy.

Skinny Ranch Dip

No movie night is complete without some chips and ranch dip. Sadly, that is not the most healthy treat. However, making a few substitutions like making your ranch dip with greek yogurt and toasting some whole grain pita bread it becomes the perfect snack.

Trail Mix

Most of us have seen a trail mix in the grocery store but sadly it is often not the healthiest option. The best idea is to make some trail mix at home. That way you can choose your favorite nuts, seeds, and dried fruit. To make it seem more indulgent you can break in a few pieces of dark chocolate into your trail mix.
