Edamame

Another nutritious snack is edamame, which is unsweetened and naturally healthy. A study in the Journal of Nutrition found that edamame can increase satiety due to its protein and fiber content.

Registered dietitian Torey Armul highlights edamame's nutritional value, including all nine amino acids and beneficial omega-3s. Look for microwavable edamame with minimal preservatives for a quick and nutritious snack.
