CBS, Good Day Sacramento Fridge Free Summer Snacks

July 17, 2017

Mia Syn TV Registered Dietitian Nutritionist

It’s summer, we want quick snacks that will keep well in our bag while we are laying at the pool. Today I shared some options on Good Day Sacramento that are dietitian-approved and none of them require a fridge!

Better for you Potato Chip Alternative

Crunchy roasted chickpeas are a better-for-you potato chip alternative. Just as crunchy and savory but a good source of plant protein and filling fiber. 

3-Ingredient Energizing Snack Bites

I make these all the time especially if I need something on-the-go.   Add nuts and dates to a food processor, form into your bites and roll them in your favorite toppings like coconut flakes or goji berries – but feel free to get creative. Dates are my favorite healthy sweetening hack. Unlike refined sugar, which is pure carbohydrate, Dates add sweetness but also contain more potassium than a banana and are a good source of fiber, which supports digestion.

A snack that you might find in a dietitian’s pool bag


Canned tuna is one of the only high-quality, on-the-go protein sources that has those good omega-3 fats. You can pair this with an avocado for a creamy base and you have a high protein, fridge-free snack that’s super nutritious.

Satisfy your sweet tooth

I shared a healthier way to satisfy a sweet tooth – nut butter stuffed dates! Dates are naturally sweet and nut butter adds decadence but is a good source of plant protein and healthy fats.
