10 High Protein Pescatarian Snacks
High Protein Snacks-To-Go for a Pescatarian or Vegetarian Diet
As a Pescatarian it is often difficult to find good sources of protein when you are on the go. Some places don’t have fresh seafood, and some places don’t have seafood at all. Whether you are traveling by plane or train, taking a hike, going to the beach, or are just out and about, here are some of our favorite high protein snacks that are safe for travel.
** None of these brands have sponsored or paid us for this blog. This is an honest review of our favorite products.**

1. Pescavore Tuna Jerky
Pescavore Tuna Jerky has all the qualities we love. They are made of sustainable, wild-caught tuna, are gluten free, have no artificial additives or sugars, and are made local in the USA. Their company is also all about creating a clean and healthy ocean and body. One pack is approximately 100 calories and contains 14 grams of protein, whats better than that?! These are great for on-the-go activities like hikes, bike rides, fishing trips, you name it. Caribbean Jerk was our favorite flavor.
2. Trail Mix
Trail Mix is a great on-the-go delicious, healthy and high-protein snack. Rather than providing you with our favorite brand, we recommend making your own. Often, pre-made trail mixes are loaded with extra calories and sugars that are unnecessary and unhealthy. Instead, pick up a few bags of your favorite nuts and snacks and combine them to create your own trail mix. We love combining cashews, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, cacao, and craisins; but you can add anything from almonds and pistachios to dark chocolate and coconut. Trader Joe’s has a huge variety of nuts and snacks that you can use to make your own. Have fun and enjoy.
3. To-Go Hummus
Although we love making our own homemade hummus, these to-go snackers are perfect for your every-day lunch, or as a travel snack. Not only is hummus full of protein, but it is also healthy and delicious. You can even bring along some carrots, cucumbers, or peppers for extra dippers.
4. Greek Yogurt
Chobani Greek Yogurt has one of the highest protein content compared to other popular greek yogurt brands. Yogurt might not be the easiest to travel with since it doesn’t last long outside the cold, but it is definitely delicious and healthy. When purchasing greek yogurt, we recommend buying the original/unflavored types and adding in your own fruit or granola. Often, the flavored yogurts are very high in sugars and artificial ingredients.
5. Dairy-Free Yogurt
For those of you who do not eat dairy, dairy-free yogurt is a great substitute. We love Siggi’s (we love their greek yogurt too), because it tastes great and has no unnecessary added ingredients. It is also 15g of Protein, which is the same as the Chobani greek yogurt.
6. RX Bars
What we love about RX Bars is their motto: No BS. Their ingredients are straight and to the point, making them healthy and delicious.
7. RX Nut Butter
We love their bars and we love their butters too! RX nut butters are also no BS, and they make personal sizes to go. We love eating these with a banana or apple to enjoy on the go. Their flavors are also delicious and fun.
8. Rice Cake Recipes
You may be wondering why Rice Cakes are on here since one rice cake is less than 1g of protein, but it is more what you do with the rice cake. Here are two great ideas:
1. Top with cucumbers and tuna salad for a healthy and delicious, high protein treat.
2. Top with your favorite nut butter and some berries of your choice for a low-carb, low-sugar version of a PB&J.
9. Kind Bars
Kind Bars have an extensive variety of products that are low in sugar, high in protein, gluten free, and delicious! They also have no unnecessary added ingredients, making them good for you too.
10. Hard-Boiled Egg
Whether you need a quick breakfast or some added protein to your meal, hard-boiled eggs are simple, healthy and yummy. Have them alone, add some Trader Joe’s Everything but the Bagel seasoning, or add it to your salad or grain bowl for some additional flavor and protein.
