This morning I made Tuna and I’ve been told it’s the perfect snack…lookey-at-e-whatti-found-e (yeah, nerdy, anywho): I decided that I’d do my own recipe and divide it into 4 snacks. I had 2 cans of tuna chunk light in water (totals about 8oz), 1 tbsp of light Mayo, 1 tbsp of sweet relish, & 1 hard-boiled egg. Now, this is where it gets tricky, I had to figure out by hand how much sodium, calories, sugars, and proteins were in this snack. I’m not a chemist so this could be wayyyyyy left field because I don’t know how certain foods react with one another (sometimes causing higher calories, etc), but this is my calculation:

How is this for tasty , filling, and healthy?!? Now, when adding crackers, I decided to go with 1 serving of Honey Butter Ritz cracker which contains: 80 calories for 5 crackers, 70mg of sodium, 2g of Sugar, and 1g or protein. I paired all of this with a piece of fruit (apple) and I have a snack that’s less than 300 calories, great protein to feed my developing muscles, and low in carbs (sugars). Hope you try it out! Tell me what you think.
