Quick healthy snack ideas

Easy healthy snackin' ideas:



Apple or pear with natural almond butter

Hummus with carrot sticks or sliced red/yellow/orange peppers

Ricotta cheese, mixed with cocoa powder, stevia, and vanilla extract (delicious high protein, low carb snack!)

Cottage cheese mixed with yogurt, berries, and walnuts or pecans

A couple hard boiled eggs with celery sticks and hummus(roasted red pepper hummus is my favorite)

Celery sticks with organic peanut butter or almond butter
Avocado slices

A piece of organic sprouted grain toast (sprouted grain preferred nutritionally over “whole grain”) with nut butter and berries

A bowl of blueberries mixed with raw almonds

Cottage cheese with cinnamon, apple slices, and walnuts

Turkey Jerky
