Hardboiled eggs and a side of fruit

When you can’t decide whether to go salty or sweet, have both. Pair a hardboiled egg with a serving of melon or your favorite fruit, Freuman says. The protein in the egg will fill you up and melons have a high-water content, giving you a hydrating energy boost.

Instead of reaching for a bag of chips, try dry roasting a big batch of chickpeas. Add your spices to them, like cumin, black pepper, and paprika, or make it sweet with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of honey. Then, portion them out in 1/3 cup and munch on them alongside a piece of fruit or a handful of raw veggies, Freuman says.
