We are about to enter summer ! For our family it's full of camping and beach days , parks and road trips . It is actually my toughest time of year to keep the lbs off ! Forget the holidays , I love BBQ and potlucks , cold treats at the beach and s'mores around the campfire ! So I am trying to help myself out and bring all my faves with me ! Will I be perfect , nope , but I will do my best and save splurging for when it counts . Below are my fave snacks , but first , what makes the cut as far as a reasonable snack ? Ideally I want a mix of produce and protein , and I want it to have at least a few grams of fiber , to keep me full and no chemicals or gmos , low in sugar (5 grams or less) , and it needs to TASTE GOOD !
1. Greek yogurt plain) with berries 1/2 c of each , fiber , antioxidants and lots of protein .
2. Classic - ants on a log ! Celery , nut butter and raisins .
3. Hummus with carrots
4. Popcorn , air popped is best .
5. Sliced turkey with pickles . ( I wrap the turkey around my pickle )
6. Chia pudding .
7. Oatmeal with nuts and fruit .
8. Think thin bar - I really like these after a tough workout .
9. Edamame , dipped in Braggs aminos ,it tastes like soy sauce .
10 . Apples !
Hope this helps ! And you tell me your faves ! I want some ideas from you ! Below , I really like this popcorn , all friendly ingredients I can pronounce !
