That is why I wanted to share with you guys my 5 go to healthy snack ideas. The snack ideas in this post you guys are so easy to make, so delicious and of course low in calories. They are yummy healthy snack options for whether you’re tying to lose weight or not!
5 INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY SNACK IDEAS
1. Frozen Yogurt Bark With Berries and Nuts
Get recipe from Nickiieats.
This is one of my favorite snacks because it is so easy to make in “bulk” because you can just grab whenever you want some. This is a healthy snack because you use like the least amount of ingredients and it is still a yummy snack. And you can modify it to make as healthy as you want, like using plain yogurt instead of flavored or using sweetener instead of sugar.
2. Three Ingredient Peanut Butter Honey Oat Bars
Get the recipe from The BakerMama.
I love these peanut butter and honey oatmeal bars because not only are they a healthy snack they are high in protein (from the peanut butter and the oats) which make them very filling
3. Strawberry Fruit Roll-Ups
Get the recipe from Choosing Chia.
It is almost insane how easy it is to make these yummy fruit roll ups. All you need is literally three ingredients (strawberries, lemon juice and some maple syrup) and you can make yourself this easy healthy snack.
4. Strawberry Banana Smoothie Bowl
Get the recipe from The Hint of Rosemary.
Of course I couldn’t leave out the aesthetically pleasing smoothie bowls on this list! The beauty about this type of recipe is that you can use any fruit you have available and still create a delicious snack or meal.
5. Garlic Herb Nut Mix
Get the recipe from Our Sweetly Spiced Life.
Nuts are an amazing snack for when you’re trying to lose weight because they are high in protein and keep you full for longer. This simple peanuts recipe my go to because it is so yummy and easy to make. You can use whatever nuts you have available and your favorite garlicy seasoning and just roast everything to perfection.

Just a little disclaimer… I just want to mention that while it is important to be conscious and mindful of what you put into your body, you don’t want to develop an unhealthy relationship with food. If one day you’re craving that big family-sized bag of Doritos, you have that bag. It won’t kill you. Just always listen to your body because obviously only you know it best.
Anyway this is the end of the post. I hope you enjoyed reading it!
