It may be the season of leggings & sweaters but that is no excuse to hibernate like a bear this winter. Satisfy those cravings with healthy snacks so you can still werkk it on winter vacation 😉
1.Prosciutto Wrapped Asparugus… a quick and easy recipe to whip up a delicious and healthy side dish.
2. Mini Wrap
Top an 8-inch whole-wheat tortilla with:
2 slices or turkey bacon
½ sliced apple
2 to 3 slices cheddar cheese.
Roll up and microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until cheese is melted.
3.Cold Pizza…..Nope, not the takeout kind!
Toast 1 slice of whole-grain bread
Top it with: 2 tbsp. ricotta, 1 large basil leaf, 2 tomato slices, a drizzle of olive oil, and an optional turkey sausage as pepperoni.
4.Nut Butter Boat Spread the love on a few celery sticks with 1 tablespoon of any nut butter (almond, cashew, walnut) topped with a few whole almonds and/or raisins. If you’re not a fan of celery, try scooping out the middle of an apple and filling it with whichever nut butter you prefer.
5. Jolly Time-Light Popcorn…This popcorn is a light and guilt-free snack, as long as it isn’t covered in butter and salt but……you can add some Franks red hot sauce.
****Not too much or it will get soggy!
6. Chocolate Peanut Butter Granola Bites Let’s talk ripe apples and creamy peanut butter with a sprinkle of granola and a drizzle of dark chocolate or Nutella. Perfect for smart fall snacking!!

8.Scuffins Our two favorite G’s, guiltless & gluten free.
9.Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Banana Bites These bites are delicious and simple; simple to make and simple to eat.
10.Grapes & Grahams Take one graham cracker and split it into two squares. Spread each square with a light layer of cream cheese. Then sprinkle eight halved grapes over the top. It sounds strange, but it’s so delicious!
