5 Easy High‑Protein Snack Hacks for Busy Days

Let’s face it—when your day gets hectic, it’s easy to grab whatever’s convenient (hello, vending machine). But staying energized and focused doesn’t have to mean sacrificing quality. Here are five quick, delicious high-protein snack hacks that help you hit your macros without the junk—each made better with Minimo.


1. Protein Yogurt Parfait Jar

Prep Time: 2 minutes
Protein: ~25g

Mix ½ scoop of your favorite Minimo Chocolate or Vanilla Protein Powder into ½ cup of Greek yogurt. Layer with fresh berries and a sprinkle of grain-free granola. Pack in a mason jar for on-the-go convenience.

Pro Tip: Stir the protein into a few tablespoons of yogurt first for a super smooth texture—then add the rest.


2. No-Bake Protein Bites

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Protein: ~7g per bite

Ingredients:

  • 1 scoop Minimo Chocolate Protein
  • ½ cup almond butter
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¾ cup shredded coconut or oats
  • Optional: mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts

Mix, roll into balls, chill for 20 minutes. That’s it.

Why it works: Portable, satisfying, and way better than a store-bought bar.


3. Frozen Protein “Truffle” Cubes

Prep Time: 5 minutes + freeze
Protein: ~10g per 2 cubes

Blend 1 scoop Minimo Protein with 2 tbsp almond butter and a splash of almond milk until smooth. Pour into silicone ice cube trays and freeze. Pop out for a pre- or post-workout bite.

Optional Twist: Dust with cacao powder before freezing for a “truffle” finish.


4. Protein-Powered Apple Nachos

Prep Time: 3 minutes
Protein: ~15g

Slice 1 apple thin and layer on a plate. Drizzle with a quick protein “frosting” (1 scoop Minimo Protein + 2 tbsp almond milk). Add crushed walnuts or cinnamon for crunch.

Great for: Afternoon slumps and sweet tooth cravings.


5. Coffee Protein Shake To-Go

Prep Time: 1 minute
Protein: ~25g

Mix 1 scoop Minimo Protein with cold brew or chilled coffee and shake with ice. Add a splash of dairy-free creamer if desired.

Energy + protein = win. Perfect for busy mornings or early meetings.
