Snack time can be a challenge for the clean eater. It is the middle of the day, dinner is still a couple of hours away, and you feel your energy starting to fade. Even worse…it seems like unhealthy shack options are coming at you from every direction! The vending machine in the break room…the muffin at the coffee shop…that gas station you just drove by. It is almost too much! You are so hungry…
We have all been there. And lets be honest…it sucks. Being caught out of the house without a healthy real food snack can put you in a terrible position. Do you let yourself go hungry? Or do you break down and eat something processed from a bag?
Here is a simple and delicious clean eating snack option that you can take with you, to make sure you never have to break down and brag that vending machine food again!
