Healthy Snacks, Healthy Habits

Summer is right around the corner, and NOW is the time to make some small changes in your health that can yield BIG results!

A great way to support healthy habits is to make filling and nourishing snack choices between meals, or when you are on the go. The Growing Weisser girls ALWAYS have a snack or two (or 10) in their purses or diaper bags for the kids and mama!

Healthy snacking is a great way to boost metabolism, curb hunger, nourish the body, and manage blood sugar. A healthy snack is a balanced snack – one that provides protein, carbs, and healthy fats. Keeping pre-made or grab-and-go snacks around will help you make a simple, healthy choice when hunger strikes.

Homemade popsicles are a GREAT and fun way to get yummy nutrients in your kids’ bodies. Our favorite ones to make are these electrolyte popsicles with our #blessinginabox “Hydrate” powder. No artificial yuckies!

Snacking outside is more fun! Especially with homemade “juice” (It’s our #Blessinginabox electrolyte powder drink again and our favorite “naked” natural popcorn from Costco.

#blessinginabox makes snack time so fun and simple! We love shaking up our favorite superfoods shake powder with a little refreshing almond milk in the afternoon after playing outside.

Bars are a great way to pack in some nutrition for our on-the-go days. I love that my favorite superfoods bars are kid approved both in taste and nutrition! Another #blessinginabox win!!
