You'll love these protein box ideas!
Whether you're looking for protein on the go options as a snack or even a work lunch, we're sharing a great variety of options that are easy to mix and match. Whether you consider these protein snack boxes, protein lunch boxes, or protein bento boxes, they're all a versatile easy way to stick to your macro goals.
Since starting a macro eating plan to lose weight and build muscle, I've started weighing all foods in grams for accuracy. It's truly the only way to know exactly how much you're eating because measuring food by cups or by size, like a medium apple vs a large apple, could mean you're unknowingly adding in extra calories all day long.
We highly recommend investing in an inexpensive food scale to help with tracking your proteins, fats, fiber, and carbs during the day.
