25 Healthy Snack Ideas for Summer
Now that summer is in full swing, my inbox has been flooded with two questions:
- How to Eat Healthy While Traveling?
- What are Healthy Snack Ideas for the Summer?
For many families (mine included) summertime means lots of time outside our kitchen.
From road trips to beach trips and days at the pool, summer can be a challenging time to stick to your healthy eating if you don’t have a good plan in place.
If you have traveling plans and want to know how to eat healthy while traveling, click here for 4 easy travel tips I use to eat healthy while on the road.
I have a few of my standard healthy road trip snacks listed there but today I wanted to give you a more detailed list with some more healthy snack ideas for summer.
Below you’ll find a list of healthy snack ideas that are picnic-portable.
Some are recipes, and some are pre-packaged snacks that you can easily buy for a quick grab-and-go. These healthy snack ideas are easily transportable to the beach or pool, are 100% kid friendly and will please your taste buds without wrecking your fat loss goals.
These are some of our go-to healthy beach + pool snacks.
