It’s been awhile since my last healthy habits post, and the topic today is a delicious one: Snacking! I’ve been meaning to write down all of my favorite whole food snacks in one place as an easy reference. I’m hoping this is helpful for others too!

If you’re not hungry, don’t waste the extra calories because someone, somewhere, said you had to.

Snacking used to scare me because I thought its the easiest ways to gain some calories. Well healthy snacks should do the trick. I'm also learning that having it already prepared will prevent impulse buying hence eating the wrong type of snacks. Thanks for the tips.

Thanks for sharing this!
Very good tips, I particularly like your savoury snack examples.
And it so true that snacking can add up to a significant amount of calories if one is not conscious about it.

Wholefoods FTW! Good article
