You're hungry. You're also at work, so it's time to pull something
out of the desk drawer. Hmmm what to choose!?! Now, before you throw
down a whole bag of chips when you need a snack today, see if
anything on this list appeals to you. Someone came up with the ten
easiest things to snack on at your desk that are also cheap AND
healthy.
1. Almonds. They fill you up, because they have more fiber than
other nuts.
2. Low-fat popcorn.
3. Fresh fruit or dried fruit.
4. Dry cereal. Just make sure it's somewhat healthy. Don't pound
down a box of Lucky Charms.
5. Protein bars. Look for one that's under 200 calories, and has
fruit and nuts in it.
6. Pretzels. Just don't eat too many.
7. A frozen banana. Which is good for summer.
8. String cheese or cottage cheese. The protein keeps your blood
sugar stable, so you don't get tired.
9. Vegetables and hummus. The chickpeas in the hummus have a lot
of fiber, protein, calcium, and iron.
10. Apples with peanut butter. Just don't overdo it with the
peanut butter. Or if you want to be extra healthy, go with almond
butter instead.
I couldn't help but notice that beer wasn't on the list, but
that's just me!
