10. Cheese

Look beyond the American cheese singles from your childhood to find a snack full of protein and calcium. Some cheeses have healthy fats in them, too. From feta to gouda, most cheeses have a strong flavor, so a little goes a long way toward satisfying cravings without overeating. A plate of cheddar and fruit is a healthy, high-protein snack; or, sprinkle parmesan over salads and other dishes to boost the flavor and add some bone-strengthening calcium.
