Healthy Snacks: Part I

I am always on the look out for healthy snacks and different options to mix into my daily food routine.  After almost 6 months of being conscious of what I eat, I have created a list of my favorite yummy snacks that are delicious, healthy and easy.  I thought it would be fun to update occasionally on what I am enjoying for snacks at the moment. Not only can I look through my snacks when I need to, but maybe offer some tips and tricks for all of you out there.


1. White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cliff Bars (all time favorite!)
2. Oatmeal with Berries
3. Greek on the Go Bites (I count out 11 and take them with me in a Ziploc bag-easy!)



4. Carrots with Oikos French Onion Dip (I haven't tried the other dips but they all look great)



5. Greek Yogurt - Favorite brands: Fage and Chobani
6. A few slices of turkey and a Sargento colby-jack cheese stick
7. My Favorite Protein Shake
8. Avocado - so good with a tiny dash of season salt
9. Strawberries and Blueberries (I love to mix these two in a bag to take with me for on the go snacks)
10. Banana with Peanut Butter
11. Vanilla Greek Yogurt + TBS. of Peanut Butter = Dip apples into it (one of my all time favorites)
12. KIND bars- I love the chocolate one and the cranberry fruit and nut one



I know all of these snacks are probably things you've tried/heard of, but sometimes for me all I need is just a reminder.  What are your favorite snacks right now?

Exciting news today for my workout regime... I joined a new gym that I think I am really going to love.  The gym I used to be a member of was great, but did not offer any classes. My new gym offers tons and tons of classes like yoga, toning, cycling - you name it, they've got it! I also got a great deal (thanks teacher discount!) and I cannot wait to try all of the classes. Today, I did a ripped yoga class that was amazing and I loved, loved it! Tomorrow morning I am going to try the total body tone class.. wish me luck!

I've also been interested in clean eating lately. We for the most part do this already, but I am thinking about finding a book on clean eating and try it 80/20. Anyone out there clean eaters? I found this on Pinterest and it gives you an idea of what to stock your fridge with...



Any tips? Have a great weekend with the ones you love!
