10 Healthy Snack Ideas Under 150 Calories

Snacking is not the problem. Unplanned snacking is. These ten ideas give you a planned, portioned snack for every situation — whether you are at home, at work, or on the go — all under 150 calories.

Quick answer: the best snacks under 150 calories are high in protein or fibre, easy to portion, and planned in advance rather than chosen reactively. Herbalife Protein Bars and Protein Chips are the most convenient options in the range. The ten ideas below cover all Herbalife snack products and everyday food alternatives.

The 10 snack ideas

1. Herbalife Protein Bar

~140 calories

Available in Chocolate Peanut, Citrus Lemon and Vanilla Almond. Individually wrapped, approximately 10g protein per bar, and easy to keep in a bag, desk drawer, or car. At £18.97 for 14 bars, that is £1.36 per bar. Check the current label for exact calorie and protein figures.

2. Protein Chips Barbecue

~100–120 calories per bag

A 30g bag of Protein Chips gives you a crunchy, savoury snack with protein. Useful when you want something chip-like without the calorie hit of standard crisps. Check the current label for exact figures.

3. Express Protein Bar

~150 calories

The Express Protein Bar in Chocolate is a slightly smaller format bar — 7 bars per box at £18.96. Good for a lighter snack or when you want something between a full bar and nothing. Check the label for current calorie figures.

4. F1 Express Meal Bar

Check label

The F1 Express Bars in Dark Chocolate or Cranberry & White Chocolate are meal replacement bars — useful when you cannot make a shake. Check the label for calorie content as these may be above 150 calories per bar.

5. Half a Formula 1 shake

~90–100 calories

One scoop of Formula 1 with 150ml semi-skimmed milk makes a smaller snack shake. Useful mid-afternoon when you want something sweet and filling without a full meal.

6. Greek yoghurt plain 100g

~60–80 calories

Plain full-fat Greek yoghurt provides approximately 9–10g protein per 100g. High satiety, no added sugar, available in any supermarket. Add a few berries if you want sweetness without significantly increasing calories.

7. Two rice cakes with cottage cheese

~100–120 calories

Two plain rice cakes with two tablespoons of cottage cheese gives you a crunchy, high-protein snack under 120 calories. Prepare in advance and keep in the fridge.

8. Hard-boiled egg

~70–80 calories

One hard-boiled egg is approximately 70–80 calories and provides 6–7g protein. Boil a batch at the start of the week. One of the most portable, high-protein snacks at any budget.

9. Carrot sticks with hummus (2 tbsp)

~100–120 calories

100g of carrot sticks with two tablespoons of hummus gives you fibre, protein, and a satisfying crunch. Pre-portion the hummus — eating from the tub adds calories quickly.

10. Frozen berries 100g

~40–60 calories

100g of frozen mixed berries is approximately 40–60 calories. High in fibre and antioxidants, naturally sweet, and very low calorie. Eat straight from frozen or defrost and add to a half-shake.

The rule that makes snacking work

Plan your snack before you are hungry. Decide what you are going to eat, portion it in advance, and have it ready. Reactive snacking — opening the fridge or cupboard when you are already hungry — almost never results in a 150-calorie choice.

A protein bar or a bag of Protein Chips in your bag is a planned snack. A biscuit tin on the desk is not. The difference is preparation, not willpower.
