Smart Snacking

Hi, I’m Weis Dietitian Christina Pelletier with the Weis HealthyBites tip of the week.

Eating a well balanced snack can help improve your mood, help manage your weight, and boost nutrient intake. Snacks are also a great opportunity to increase fiber intake for the day.

  • Pair sweet fresh fruit and savory cheese for a satisfying fiber and protein filled snack.
  • Layer a parfait with Greek yogurt, nuts, granola, and fruit.
  • Put a new twist on the classic ants on a log snack which consists of celery filled with peanut
    butter and topped with raisins, instead use cream cheese and everything but the bagel
    seasoning or Greek yogurt with blueberries.
  • Roll turkey and cheese with a slice of tomato and avocado to hold you over until your next meal.
