Energizing Snacks to Fight Fatigue

Rice Cake with Cottage Cheese & Tomato

For a satisfying snack that revs your engine, top a rice cake with ¼ cup low-fat cottage cheese, tomato slices, and the seasonings of your choice (a creole or lemon pepper blend works nicely). Low-fat dairy, like cheese and yogurt, delivers a big hit of high-quality whey protein to keep you awake and attentive. Keep a bag of rice cakes in your desk drawer and a tub of cottage cheese in your office fridge so you’re fully prepared next time you start to slide into a midday slump.
