5 Ideas for Nutritious Snacks
Getting a snack between meals is very important. It keeps your body in burning mode and keeps you from over eating at lunch and dinner.
Here are my 5 ideas of nutritious snacks:
- Apple and Peanut Butter: when combining these two, you get a good amount of fiber, protein and vitamins.
- Mixed Nuts and dried fruit: nuts are high in protein and good fat. Dried fruit has amazing benefits to the body but watch your portion because they are high in sugar.
- Granola Bars: make sure you buy/make granola bars that are high in fiber and low in sugar.
- Pop Corn: it makes a great late night snack! It’s low in calories, high in fiber and makes you feel full for longer.
- Strawberries covered with dark chocolate: when combining these two you get high amounts of antioxidants, fiber, and Vitamins, especially vitamin C.
Enjoy!
