50 Healthy Snack Ideas for On-the-Go


I've learned one of the best ways to stay energized during a busy day as a parent is by having healthy snacks on hand. Pre-packing snacks so they're ready to throw in your purse or diaper bag can help you avoid going hungry or eating junk food because it's convenient to order from a fast food restaurant or get from a vending machine. After I go to the grocery store I take time to separate the food into individual servings before I put it away.
