These 14 Healthy Snacks are not only good for you, but taste great too!
It’s a new year, which brings a fresh opportunity to eat right and reach those healthy lifestyle goals. I’m pretty good, most of the time, about making smart choices for meals, but it’s the in between-times that are my downfall. When I’ve got the munchies, I tend to grab anything and everything that’s within reach or sight, and that usually amounts to chocolate chips or the kids’ leftover Christmas candy. Those types of snacks always leave me wanting for more and feeling very regretful. Any effort I’ve put into making good food choices that day can go out the window in a flash! I don’t know why, but when I’m hungry, I become irrational!
Are you like that too?
So I consulted Pinterest and pulled 14 Healthy and Yummy Snack Ideas, for my benefit and yours, to help keep our tummies satisfied and tied us over in a guilt-free way until the next meal.
Carrots and Hummus from Woman’s Day

My stomach is growling! Note to self, next time you’re in need of a satisfying snack, grab one of these healthy options instead!
I’m making a point to keep fresh fruit and nuts at arms-length this year too, because they’re quick and great-tasting snacks that are also good for the body.
What’s your favorite go-to healthy snack?
I'm a huge fan of edamame too, thanks for some great recipes!
