Snack Smart

In between meals, we often tend to snack on things that satisfy some sort of craving, whether it’s salty or sweet. Although it is important to snack on small meals throughout the day sometimes this can lead to over-consumption of calories depending on what we choose to snack on. Some poor choices of snacks include chips, soda, candy, baked goods, etc. Here are some of my favorite snacks that satisfy my in-between-meal cravings but are healthy and won’t undo your weeks of clean eating.


Smoothie – add in your favorite fruits, greens, and almond milk to make a delicious, filling, fiber-rich snack

Handful of almonds or other nuts – provide added protein and healthy fats

½ cup of dried fruit – for those of you with a sweet tooth try snacking on dates, raisins, figs or apricots
Grapes – perfect snack at home or to go
