The problem with boring snack options that you already know you will get bored of after 3 minutes is that they don't pack a punch enough to prevent boredom from setting in. What is the solution? The magical A Paleo Protein Bar.

 

One bite and this bar goes with grain-free, vegan, and gluten-free diets! It's also organic, made of organic natural ingredients that are frequently missing from protein bars such as honey and gelatin. This bar provides intense nutrients with every calorie intake--that's 17 grams per bar! You'll still have plenty of time to work out until those other snacks arrive at 2 pm when the important dinner guests arrive for cocktails. Fit in your workout afterward without all the guilt because this protein shake is a great way to replenish the lost calories without adding a whole bunch of unnecessary junk.

Add in your favorite dressing for an extra punch of flavor that you will love! Serving this salad as a wrap makes it easy to eat even if you don't have time to cook dinner before your event. All it takes is 20 minutes to make these delicious wraps--perfect for when you have just ten minutes between errands!
