Not only are rice cakes low in calories but they are also pretty cheap! Although they do not have a lot of nutritional value to them, adding some kind of nut butter to them helps! If you choose to go with Peanut butter, try opting for a natural peanut butter because it does not have as much sugar and sodium as commercial peanut butters do. Also for an extra kick try adding honey, a natural sugar, some fresh fruit or some dark chocolate chips!

A Glass of Chocolate Milk
A glass of chocolate milk can do a ton for you! Not only can it quench your thirst but it can also put that sweet tooth to rest! It is a perfect post workout snack because it is a mix of protein, carbs, sugar, electrolytes and nutrients. This is instead of a highly salted protein or energy drink.
On the go Snack; Nuts!
Nuts!
An ounce of nuts pack great protein and fiber into your busy life. They also feed you heart-healthy fats that lowers your bad cholesterol and magnesium. Rule of thumb when it comes to nuts, a serving size is about the size of a shot glass!
