Snacks

A list of 15 simple snacks that are healthy, inexpensive, easy to prepare, great on-the-go, and even kid friendly.

Simple Snacks

It’s very important to have a variety of healthy snack options available at all times. Snacks come in handy mid-morning, mid-afternoon, after school, and pre- or post-workout. I like to keep my snacks simple and easy to grab for at home or on-the-go. Ideally, snacks should be less than 250 calories each and include some protein. Hunger can often be confused for thirst, so hydration is key to avoid over-snacking.

Here’s my list of 15 Simple Snacks:

1. Bell Pepper Strips or Carrot Sticks + Hummus

2. Celery + Nut Butter

3. Sliced Apple + Nut Butter

4. Cottage Cheese + Crackers or Fruit

5. Whole Grain Waffle or Toast + Nut Butter

6. Whole Grain Cereal + Sliced Banana

7. Grapes + Cheese Stick

8. Crackers + Cheese

9. Yogurt

10. Fruit

11. Smoothie

12. Nuts

13. Trail Mix

14. Popcorn

15. Protein, Snack or Energy Bar

*My go-to afternoon snack is a variation of trail mix: individual size bag of popcorn, a small handful of nuts, and a few raisins or chocolate chips.
