Egg Salad


Egg Salad

If you need your snack to have real staying power, go for a combo of good protein and a little bit of fat. A homemade egg salad is a great choice. Chop up one whole egg and one egg white, then mix with a tablespoon of reduced-fat mayonnaise. The high-quality protein in the eggs will fuel your body for hours, while the fat helps slow digestion, so you'll feel full and energized longer.

Recommended serving size: 1 whole egg and one white plus 1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayonnaise

Calories: 145
*tip: I like to put chopped up celery in my egg salad and adding that doesn't add hardly any extra calories to it!
