There are so many nutritious and delicious combinations of snack foods. Oftentimes, though, when we’re hungry and on-the-go we grab the first thing available, which is not always the healthiest option.

A great way to change this habit is to make a list of possible snacks that you can easily prepare in advance and take with you. For example, trail mix with cereal, nuts, and dried fruit.

Today, write a list of 6-12 of your favorite snacks to make on the fly. (For healthy snack ideas, check out the American Dietetic Association’s suggestions for the Perfect Snack.)

A healthy snack shopping list is a great idea. I am always rummaging through my cupboards trying to find something to snack on while at the same time avoiding my stockpile of dark chocolate.

I actually can’t wait to start this list since I was just talking about this issue in my blog. I’m always randomly on the run. Dropping kids off at school and instead of coming home I head someplace else and leave with no snacks at all. I use to keep fruits and granola bars in the car during those times but the fruits spoil so quickly and I end up eating the granola bars like candy. I need to find something else and hopefully this will help.
