Easy Healthy Snacks To Eat On The Go

This is a big one for lots of people. I’ve heard too many people say eating healthy is not convenient or is too time consuming. Well, it doesn’t have to be. It is what you make it! Make it simple!

My definition of a “snack” is something light you eat in between breakfast and lunch then again between lunch and dinner. Depending on your fitness output any extra snacking may be stacking up as extra calories and really, who needs those!

My definition of “easy” is something you don’t have to make or put together. You just grab and eat or open and eat. For convenience pre-rinse your fruits and veggies, slice them up if needed and put them in ziplocks. Grab & Go!

Eat 2 Healthy Snacks A Day

It is always a good idea to have your snacks in between meals so your not ravenous before your next meal and make a bad food choice or simply over eat. Then, the regret sets it!

Low calorie snacks that will hold you over in between meals.

• Apples

• Berries

• Nuts of any kind (remember, just a handful)

• Yogurt

• Protein shake

• Protein balls (for recipe)

• Beef jerky

• Granola

• Cucumbers

• Crudites 

Plan Ahead

Depending on your daily schedule yogurt with fresh berries (unless prepared ahead of time) or a protein shake may not be the most convenient snack out there for you. If this is the case stick with fruits and veggies that can be pre-washed and packaged into a ziplock or any dry snacks such as nuts or granola. Eating healthy snacks is not only important to your health it is so easy to do and healthy food just tastes amazing!

This is one of my favorite make ahead snacks that’s really filling Apple Yogurt Granola Salad. This salad is more like a meal, you can eat it for lunch and be satisfied.

Live to be happy. Inspire to be you & YOU want to be happy, don’t ya?!
