Ten Healthy Snacks To Get Today

Eight Healthy Snacks To Get Today

You can always find healthy foods to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but snack time is not so easy. After all, when you think about snack food, you probably think about high fat or high sugar foods that you find in the snack machines. Chips, candy bars and cookies top the list of popular, but no-so-good-for-you snacks. In order to have a healthy diet, you need to make sure that all the snacks you eat are healthy. To help you, here is a list of eight healthy snacks you should stock up on today.

Popcorn: Some popcorn is good for you. This is not the same popcorn you get at the movie theater. That popcorn is buttery, salty and full of bad oil and fat. The kind of popcorn that is good for you is either the low fat microwave popcorn or air popped popcorn. Popcorn without a lot of butter and salt is tasty and filling. If you don’t have an air popper, consider getting one. They are inexpensive and easy to use. Plus, it is cheaper that microwave popcorn. If you think you need some flavor, add some Butter Buds, or season salt.

Frozen Yogurt: Frozen yogurt is another great snack. You can get frozen yogurt in pints or gallons in all kinds of flavors, or you can make your own by freezing your favorite yogurt into pops. You can also add fruit such as strawberries or bananas for an added flavor.

String cheese: Mozzarella string cheese is another good choice for a healthy snacks. These are high in calcium and protein and when you buy the low fat version, it is good for you, too. Pair your string cheese with low fat crackers or lean turkey for a filling snack.

Apples and peanut butter: You know that apples are good for you, but peanut butter is great for you, too. Think about buying natural peanut butter and dipping your apple slices in it. This is filling and delicious.

Low fat pudding: Those little cups of fat free pudding also make great and healthy snacks. While they do contain sugar, they are full of calcium and flavor. You can get your chocolate fix of the day with pudding.

Baked chips and salsa: Baked tortilla chips with a little salsa are great healthy snacks, too. Baked tortilla chip are tastier than you may think and salsa is full of flavor and low in fat.

Graham crackers: You probably remember eating a lot of graham crackers when you were a kid, but they are still great. Dip them in applesauce or no sugar fruit jam.

Fruit smoothies: Fruit smoothes are really easy to make with just about anything you have. Use some yogurt, fruit and some fresh fruit and blend with some ice. You can also make smoothies with skim milk.

With these easy and tasty snacks, you are well on your way to a healthier diet in no time. Get to the grocery store and get some today.
