I went on a little snackie spree this week + restocked some of my favorite snacks. I also grabbed a couple of new things to try so I thought you might be interested in a little haul. I love to snack but sometimes it can get me into trouble... I definitely have those days where I eat pretty well and then I completely ruin it once getting home. It's always the in-between time after work and before dinner that gets me! 

One silver lining is that most of the time I try to buy healthier snack options that I can at least feel better about, lol. You know I'll always be a Cheez-it gal through and through but now I try to limit those purchases to just every once in awhile. Instead, I focus on buying snacks made with cleaner ingredients and/or that offer a little bit more nutritional value. Obviously a snack still has to taste good for me to eat it but now you can find some delicious options at the grocery store. Here's what came home with me this week! 


Everything I’ve ever tried from Simple Mills has been delicious. All of their products are made with clean, simple ingredients. I picked up a few boxes of their bars to eat before my morning workouts. They are so yummy— hearty with a chewy, dense texture I love. My favorite flavor is the Banana Bread but I also really like the Carrot Cake and the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip. Their crackers are also good and a great alternative to your normal regular cracker. I’ve never had the Rosemary before so that's a newbie for this week.

It should also be no surprise that another bag of the Quinn Peanut Butter pretzels made it home— these are a staple snack for me. I’m not gluten free but I love how they taste. They're a little bit crunchier and less sweet than a regular peanut butter filled pretzel but so good. A little sweet, salty + crunchy. 

For a sweet treat/dessert option, I love these Little Secrets Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Wafers. They’re delish and super light. I also love the mini size for the perfect little bite but you can also get bigger bars + other flavors! 

I'm still working on upping my daily protein intake so I thought having a few higher protein snack options would help. I picked up a few more of the Two Good Yogurts (12g per container!) and these mini Chomps Turkey sticks (5g per stick). They also make beef sticks too! I really liked the yogurts and smoothies which are great for breakfast, snacks, etc. The higher protein + low calories/sugar is a win win. 


What is your favorite snack? Tell me!!
