Here are some healthy snacks that are certain to please your taste buds. They are perfect choices for your kids at home or at school and even Mom and Dad can take these healthy snacks to work with them. Healthy choices for the entire family are at your fingertips

The anytime anywhere snack is a much like a trail mix. Add your favorite nut and seeds along with your favorite dry cereal and dried fruits and any other tidbits you like to nibble on. If you want to give it a different taste you can roast with a bit of garlic.

Yogurt is a great choice for a healthy snack. It's available in many different flavors, and it's also available with real fruit mixed in. It's easy to pack and goes down real smooth. The only caution with yogurt is that it needs to stay cool so although it's an excellent after school snack it may not be feasible to take to school during warmer weather.

Veggie sticks are nutritious and tasty and can be served up a variety of ways to keep them interesting. You can slice into fingers, chop into cubes, or cut into circles. Carrots, celery, pepper, tomato, and a host of other veggies are great snack foods. You can add your favorite dip or change dips every day.

Fresh fruit is always a good choice. Try to buy fruit that is in season locally to get the maximum nutrition. You can eat fruit whole or make up a fruit salad mixing up all your favorites. Sliced they make great finger foods. If you want to add a different taste pack along a yogurt dip.



Cheese and crackers are another healthy choice. I'm not talking processed cheese slices but real cheese purchased directly from your deli. You've got lots of choices too. From mild to strong cheddar, white cheese, mozzarella cheese, gouda, Swiss, and many other exotic cheeses. Mix with the cracker of your choice. Again plenty of choices from veggie to bacon to saltines to …well you get the picture the list goes on and on. Pick your favorite, change it daily, or mix and match.

Soy milk smoothies are a real hit with the kids. They taste so good the don't even realize they are actually good for them. They pack nicely into a lunch box and go down very smooth. Available in plenty of flavors you are sure to find one your kids like. In fact why not try it yourself?

Nuts are readily available and always a hit. You can mix them up or eat them separately. Walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, cashews, and peanuts are all readily available, as well as a host of other nuts. Unsalted is healthier but salted is acceptable.

Granola bars are also a good choice

Rice cakes are good too! Satisfies the need to crunch on something like chips. Good taste and different flavors too. Or if you want to get a veggie in, celery dipped in just a little peanut butter, or raisen, also almonds are supposed to be good for you to but I'm not too sure of the fat content.

take frozen blueberries( I freeze fresh and have them through the winter) (approxiamately 1 cup) , 3/4's cup of milk (1% is what I use) and splenda or nutra sweet to taste. This is very tasty and is very refreshing on hot days. The blueberries freeze the milk, so it is kind of a sweet treat without all the calories or fat. Kind of like ice cream. Enjoy...

fruit and veggies, but just because you go low fat doesnt' mean you are cutting calories, fruit is full of sugar and some are really high in calories. just don't eat more calories than your body can burn in a day.
