This month of the Burn30 blog, we’re talking about easy, delicious, and filling snacks to get you through your day. From sweet to savory, we’re got plenty of inspiration for you. Take a look!
Parfait: layer up some Greek nonfat yogurt with your favorite type of berry (mine are raspberries!) and a drizzle of honey
Apples with nut butter: cut up an apple and dunk into your favorite nut butter. Of course the standard peanut butter is delicious, but you can also switch it up by trying almond, sunflower seed, or cashew butter.
Veggies + hummus: try out various kind of veggies like cucumber slices, carrots, or slices of bell pepper with store bought or homemade hummus.
Smoothie: there are plenty of delicious smoothie recipes out there. Here is one of my favorites from the book No Meat Athlete – Tropical Vacation Smoothie
- 1 cup frozen pineapples
- 1 cup light coconut milk
- ½ cup orange juice
- ½ cup pineapple juice
- Optional: adda scoop or two of protein powder
Hard boiled eggs: easy and portable. You can pack them alone, or with some fruit or nuts for a bigger snack
No sugar added dried fruits: some of my favorites are mangos, pineapple, and apple rings
Turkey rollups: take a slice of turkey and place a slice of cheese with some veggies (like bell pepper) for crunch.
Ricotta + crackers: level up the classic cheese and crackers by picking a lower-fat cheese like ricotta and pairing it with whole wheat crackers.
What’s your favorite type of mid-day snack?
