Healthy Snack Ideas

Healthy Snacks might sound like an oxymoron to you if you're used to grabbing a bag of chips around 3pm every afternoon but there is hope for you yet!
 
Someone recently asked for healthy snacks and it reminded me that this is something many struggle with-- there are sometimes when you won't be able to have a full on nutrition dense, balanced meal but a healthy snack might be the bridge to get you home for something more substantial.
 
Here are some high-protein, healthy snack ideas you can mix and match or add your own flare:
 

• Low fat cottage cheese
• Greek yogurt (plain or low sugar)
• Handful of walnuts
• Left over chicken or steak from dinner (2-4 ounces)
• Tuna
• Low sodium dry roasted nuts
• Small apple & table spoon of peanut butter
• Hummus & broccolli
• Handful of almonds
• Rx bars (bars are not as healthy as the above options, use as last resort)

This snack list is also available as a video with some examples on our LSE YouTube channel: Snack Ideas
