snacks are an essential part of any healthy eating plan, to keep you satisfied between meals, and to avoid the temptation of sneaking chips and cookies. Which is why deciding what to eat when you’re hungry is a bad idea. The smarter strategy? plan ahead! objective to keep it around 250 calories (closer to 150 calories if you’re trying to lose weight), because this is a snack, not a meal. say no thanks to refined carbs and added sugar (cough, granola bars), because you never need much more of those in your diet. say heck yeah to fruits and veggies! because you always want much more of those in your day, and fiber can help you feel full. then add at least 10 grams of protein, to give your Camiseta Selección de fútbol de España snacks even much more staying power.

The formula is very simple: just get one piece of fruit or a baggie of veggies, and pair it with one small serving of protein. here are just a few tasty options.

Fruit: Bananas, oranges, apples, pears, grapes, strawberries, blueberries

Veggies: baby carrots, sugar snap peas, broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, small bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumbers
