Fully cooked-seasoned chicken breast bites with honey mustard dipping sauce from Trader Joe’s

Got this 5-minute snack from Trader Joe's for $3.99. Totals 190 calories with 22g of protein (chicken + sauce), making it a high protein snack.

A possible breakdown of the chicken and sauce is

  • ~120 calories, 22g of protein: chicken
  • ~70 calories, 0g of protein: sauce

I was surprised, and slightly disappointed, to see the long list of ingredients. The good thing is that most chemistry-lab-sounding stuff is for the sauce and the simpler stuff is for the chicken, so it's not all that bad.

Overall, this is a great quick snack, though it's not cheap. Perfect for taking into the movie theater because it doesn't smell too strong. Just don't spill the yellow mustard on your new white T-shirt.
