Back to School!~The Snack List

WOW! Back to school already?! Well, whether you're starting back this week, or in just a few, I've got ya covered on a list of "go-to" snacks for both you and your little people, as you all work hard on being healthy and staying energized throughout the day. Knowledge is power, but FOOD will provide the FUEL!

Lowfat Yogurt... *or go "greek" great, provides a lowfat, high protein snack that will definitely keep everyone satisfied and on the move!

Granola bars (low sugar)

Goldfish (staple for most kiddos!)

Make your own snack mix, include nuts, dried fruits, and/or dark chocolate for a little antioxidant power

Veggies and fruit ( cut it up the night before and put into baggies, for a quick on the go item to pop into your bag, or their lunchbox)

Smoothies (measure out those ingredients so you don't make a calorie bomb, but great way to sneak in veggies, into a fruit smoothie, or some extra protein by adding yogurt, or peanut butter (or any great nut-free alternative spread, is wonderful, too!)

Popcorn (lowfat and delcious!)

Back to Nature (great brand of all natural snacks, found on your health food or vegetarian aisle of grocery store) they have wonderful, cookies, crackers and chips that provide a crunch without all the "bad for you" junk of it's competitors ;)

NEED more ideas, and some LUNCH one's too? This is my favorite website for just that.......
