Before heading out the door to go to a party or dinner, you might want to eat a protein rich snack. By doing so, you can steer away from calorie rich finger food while at the party. Be sure to have some of these snacks lying around the kitchen. Here are some of your options on what you can eat before going to a party: one cup of yogurt or low fat cottage cheese, twelve almonds nuts, low sodium turkey or chicken, apple or tablespoon of peanut butter. These snacks will also not make you so hungry.
