Nourishing and Easy Snacks for Busy Parents
Quick and healthy snacks perfect for busy moms and families. Simplify snack time while staying nourished and full.
Greek Yogurt with Berries and Honey: High in protein and antioxidants. Add a handful of nuts for healthy fats and to keep you fuller longer.
Hummus and Veggies: Keep pre-cut veggies (like carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers) in the fridge for an easy-to-grab snack.
Nut Butter with Apple Slices: Slice an apple and pair it with almond or peanut butter for a quick, satisfying snack.
Trail Mix: Make your own mix with nuts, seeds, and dried fruit for a grab-and-go energy boost. If getting a pre-made mix, check the label as store-bought trail mix is often high in sugar.
Cheese and Whole-Grain Crackers: Choose high-fiber crackers and add a slice of cheese for a balance of carbs, fat, and protein.
Hard Boiled Eggs: Pre-cooked eggs are a great protein-packed snack that is easy to keep in the fridge. Add a pinch of salt and pepper or "everything but the bagel" seasoning for some extra flavor!

And as an added bonus, you won't feel guilty when your child inevitably steals some off your plate!
