In this fast paced world that we live in today we are always on the go. Often we don’t have time just to sit down and eat healthy breakfast or lunch, but it doesn’t mean that you should reach for a junk food! Check out some healthy snack you can eat on-the-go.
1. Nuts
One of the best healthy snacks to eat on-the-go is nuts. They are tasty and a great source of protein!
Take along a bag of mixed nuts, with some almonds and good Brazil nuts in the mix. Peanuts might be least healthy for you, but several peanuts would be much better than a junk food, right?
2. Fruits
This is a great, healthy snack for everyone! Bananas, apples, grapes and blueberries are quick to eat, taste delicious and don’t involve too much mess! Fruits are low in calories and those calories they have will be great for you!
You can also peel oranges, peel and slice peaches or kiwi, cut up melon or slice off strawberries. Fresh fruit is one of the healthiest snacks you can eat!
