Ten 150-calorie snacks you can buy at Trader Joe's
- 4 Minutes Read
Want to snack but not blow your calorie budget? Try these 10 tasty 150-calorie snacks that you can find at Trader Joe's.
If weight loss is your goal, you don’t want to go over your calorie limit on a few nibbles that were supposed to hold you until the next meal. Sticking with 150-calorie snacks that are high in fiber and protein will keep you on track when you snack. Whether you are craving a sweet treat, searching for something salty, looking for a spicy bite, or begging for a bubbly, refreshing drink, Trader Joe’s answers the call.
Start building your 150-calorie snacks in the produce aisles. Fresh produce provides about 50 calories per ½ cup, so it’s easy to pair a fruit or vegetable with a high-protein or high-fiber food to create a satisfying snack under 150 calories. Mix strawberries with Greek yogurt or dip cauliflower into bean dip, for a delicious and nutritious nibble.
Trader Joe’s abounds with different types of hummus. Two tablespoons of hummus provides about 50 calories, 2 grams of protein, and 2 grams of fiber.
Searching for spicy?
Try their famous Organic Buffalo Style Hummus.
Can’t decide between guacamole or hummus?
Pick up some Organic Spicy Avocado Hummus.
What should I dip in hummus?
If you feel like making hummus from scratch, Trader Joe’s sells canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans) and tahini (a paste made from ground sesame seeds).
Icelandic Skyr is a high-protein, high-calcium yogurt that’s thicker than Greek yogurt and less acidic. This filling dairy delight is produced with lowfat milk and contains 130 calories. It's made with six live active cultures, keeping your gut healthy.
Begging for a refreshing, bubbly summer drink with 5 calories per serving, no sugar substitutes, and no artificial colors?
Try my new summer favorite beverage of TJ's Seltzers with a Splash: Seltzer Water Flavored with Cranberry and Lime Juice. Spruce it up by serving in a favorite glass over ice garnished with cut strawberries or orange slices, and mint leaves. Swap this for your Happy Hour drink. Opt for recyclable cans as well.
Feeling time for a frozen dessert? And chocolate?
Try TJ's Gone Bananas! Dark Chocolate Covered Banana Slices or Gone Berry Crazy! Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pieces in frozen foods. Four pieces provide 130 calories and 2 grams of protein. Bananas and strawberries are good sources of potassium to help prevent leg cramps when exercising. Both kids and adults will enjoy this frozen snack on a hot summer day.
Many dried fruits have a lot of added sugar; however, this one is unsweetened and still sweet enough. I love ingredient lists with less than five ingredients—all of which I can pronounce. The only ingredient on this label is “organic mango.” Like all bright orange fruits and vegetables, mangoes are an excellent source of vitamin A, promoting healthy eyesight and boosting your immune system.
Not only are the first six ingredients whole grains and seeds, they also taste great. For a gathering, place them on a charcuterie board with cheese, olives, and grapes, and watch your guests enjoy them. There's also a gluten-free variety.
Trader Joe’s outdid itself, by combining salmon with its famous Everything But The Bagel Seasoning. Each slice of salmon is flavored with garlic, onion, poppy seeds, and black and white sesame seeds. Salmon is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which is vital for heart health. It is also an excellent, high-protein topper for the Whole-Grain Norwegian Crispbread listed in #7 above.
Searching for something that satisfies your savory tooth?
A ½ cup of Trader Joe’s lightly salted edamame provides 100 calories, 9 grams of protein, and 4 grams of fiber. Plus, edamame is packed with beneficial phytoestrogens to support hormone health.
Voted 2018 “Favorite Snack” at Trader Joe’s, what’s not to like about these peanut butter filled pretzels? Whether you have a salty or sweet snack craving or want a crunchy texture, this snack satisfies. Eleven pretzels provide 140 calories, 5 grams of protein, and 2 grams of fiber. Peanut butter is an excellent plant source of protein and filled with unsaturated “healthy” fats, which can help lower your risk of heart disease.
The ideal snack contains protein and fiber to keep you full longer between meals. If you head into Trader Joe’s, you will find hundreds of snacks. Be wise and selective. Choose flavorful 150-calorie snacks that align with your taste, calorie goals and healthy-eating habits.
