What are some good snacks for energy?

[poppyseed]

I need some recs for some afternoon snacks.  By 2-3pm, I need something to help me recharge.  I'm doing a Biggest Loser contest at work and dieting, so I need something healthy.

Almonds (just a handful) are my go-to afternoon power food.

I like the 100 calorie almond packs.

Wouldn't that be approximately 10 almonds?

Protein and fat will keep you more satiated than carbs. Deli meat, nuts, small portions of other meals.

A handful of almonds,

String cheese

Turkey jerky ( sodium is crazy but I sometimes need the iron!)

The snack size Larabar

Banana

[lissaholly]

Oh yes! A spoonful of peanut butter and an apple!

Thanks!

I tend to like something sweet in the afternoon, so I often mix some raisins into my nuts (almonds or peanuts). The snack sized Lara bars that a PP mentioned are basically the same idea (they're good!). I also have a cup of tea, sometimes with a small splash of milk, to make me feel like I've eaten something. Water gets boring

I eat half a pb sandwich on some sort of bread that resembles a forest floor. Lots of seeds and shit.

Nuts, celery sticks (or anything else that needs a lot of chewing) with hummus, babybel light, hard boiled egg or a banana.
