Healthy Snack Ideas

I had the chance to celebrate my grandmother's 95th birthday with her this last weekend!  95!  It was such a treat.  So this week I will give you some great healthy snack ideas instead of meal plans.  All the plans I'd made for the husband and kids ended up being used this week since they decided to let some fast food places cook for them while I was gone!

We have found these Aussie Bites at Costco.  They are all natural and filling.  They were great for a relay I did last year.  We were running off and on all day and these gave me some energy and were easy to toss in the car!

These aren't really healthy, but they are tasty!  Some friends had a long road trip to get to our place and they kept themselves full and awake by munching on these!  

This is a great twist on trail mix.  It's hard to feel good about eating trail mix with chocolate chips!  This one has yogurt chips and they have a great flavor with the dried berries and nuts.

Greek yogurt is popular now.  I like Dannon's light and fit vanilla greek yogurt.  Topped with fresh raspberries or strawberries this is pretty much the perfect snack!  This is also good topped with granola in place of the fruit or with the fruit.  That would make it almost a meal!

I like to mix a carbohydrate like fresh fruit with the protein of something like nuts, yogurt or cheese.  Sometimes I'll have a string cheese and an apple.  Or deli turkey slices and a veggie or fruit is also a good snack.
