High-protein gluten, dairy, egg and soy-free snack ideas

Posted by Active Stacks on

Providing nutritious snacks that support your family's health is a priority. For anyone looking for high-protein options that are also free from common allergens like gluten, dairy, eggs, and soy, while still emphasizing animal-based products, strategic snack choices are essential. 

Let's go over a few options that use Active Stacks beef protein powder to meet these needs.

Active Stacks beef protein powder is an animal-based protein source that is naturally free from gluten, dairy, eggs, and soy, making it an excellent addition to various snack preparations.

1) Protein-Enhanced Applesauce

Applesauce is a convenient and naturally sweet snack. To elevate its nutritional profile, stir one scoop of Active Stacks vanilla beef protein powder into a serving (about 1 cup or 200-300g) of unsweetened applesauce. This combination provides a quick source of carbohydrates from the applesauce, fruit pectin for digestion and a significant protein boost, contributing to sustained energy and satiety.

2) Gluten-Free Protein Oatmeal

Oatmeal serves as a versatile base for a protein-rich snack. Prepare a gluten-free oatmeal (such as One Degree Organics) according to package directions. Once cooked, incorporate one scoop of Active Stacks vanilla beef protein, a dash of cinnamon and a drizzle of honey. This creates a warm, comforting snack that delivers carbohydrates and a substantial amount of animal-based protein that will aid in hunger management while meeting protein needs. 

3) Chocolate Beef Protein Spread with Rice Cakes

For a crunchy and satisfying snack try a protein spread with rice cakes. Mix chocolate beef protein powder with a minimal amount of almond milk to form a thick chocolate spread. Apply the spread evenly over your favorite brand of rice cakes. This option provides a pleasant texture contrast and a convenient, dessert-like way to consume some extra protein.

These little snack ideas show how easy it is to add high-quality protein to allergen-friendly foods. With Active Stacks beef protein powder, you can make simple snacks that help your family get the protein they need while avoiding gluten, dairy, eggs, and soy.
