The start of the semester can be extremely stressful. Balancing classes, clubs, and whatever else is on our plate, it can be hard to find time to eat. Eating a quick snack in between class can boost your energy and help you focus. Most of the time its super easy to grab a bag of chips or have a cookie but that’s not the healthiest option. There are so many healthy alternatives that you can eat. Here are 5 of my favorite healthy snacks that I love to eat in between classes.
- Banana & Peanut Butter
I try to stay away from snacks that need to be refrigerated so I can just grab it out of my backpack whenever. My first favorite healthy snack is peanut butter and a banana. It’s super convenient to eat and tastes delicious!
- Granola Bars
Granola bars are another popular healthy snack, but my favorite is Fiberfull filled oats with peanut butter from trader joes. They are great for fiber intake!
- Chick Peas
You can satisfy your crunch craving with delectably roasted chickpeas and get them in any flavor that is appetizing to you.
- Dried Fruit
Since we are staying away from refrigerated snacks, it’s hard to keep fresh fruit in your bag. So, a great substitute is dried fruit! You can find any of your favorite fruit dried!
- Popcorn
Finally, Skinny pop- or any bagged popcorn- is a great salty snack to have and you can buy them in bulk at Costco or BJ’s!
I hope you enjoy these snacks as much as I do!
