Snacks help bridge the gap between meals and manage hunger levels. While snacks can get a bad rap, they can also be a great addition to a healthy balanced diet when done right. Generally, I recommend building snacks are protein and fiber and keep total calories to around 200 calories. Here are two snack boxes to try this week.
- Protein: hummus & cheese
- Whole grains: pita
- Produce: cucumbers & cherry tomatoes
- Good fats: olives
- Protein: hard-boiled egg with everything bagel seasoning
- Whole grains: crackers
- Produce: apple and celery
- Good fats: peanut butter
