‘Tis the season of wedding bells and jet setting to new locations for celebrations that last days on end. It goes without saying that snacking is an important part of any journey, and no, you don’t have to skip the snacks because of the guilt the ‘all-you-can-eat’ buffets make you feel.

On the contrary, snacking will keep you feeling full, thus keep you from having hunger pangs and eating those extra gulab jamuns which you know your body does not need.

Your body needs snacks to keep full between meals and to keep your body’s metabolism revved up. Which is why, we’ve compiled a list of snacks that are easy to make, contain good- for-you nutrients and are portable enough for you to carry and eat on the go!

Easy snacking recipes:

1. Baked Multigrain chips and cottage cheese

A small serving of Dip Multigrain Chips and two tablespoons of cottage cheese sprinkled with some salt and pepper, will pack in heart healthy carbs along with muscle building protein. The good fat in the cottage cheese will keep you full longer, keeping your hunger pangs in check! You could also throw in some veggies like bell peppers, carrots, etc for that added crunch.

2. Yogurt dressing salad with croutons

Throw together a bowl of salad leaves, some bell peppers and cherry tomatoes. In a tiny container, mix some Greek yogurt with salt, and a little whole grain mustard sauce. Before eating, add the salad dressing to your salad mix and sprinkle a few Dip Baked Whole Wheat Croutons on the salad. We promise this will be your go-to snack every time you’re hungry.

3. Apple slices with peanut butter

Want a snack that keeps you full and makes you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside? Slice up a crisp apple and sprinkle it with some cinnamon powder. When you’re feeling hungry, drizzle or dip the apples in two tablespoons of homemade peanut butter. The apple has good carbs, peanut butter has protein and the cinnamon heats up your metabolism making this the perfect snack.

4. Low fat cheese cube and carrot sticks

Yes! You read that right! You can eat cheese! Cheese packs in a lot of calcium and protein, which is amazing for your bones and muscles. Eat a few sticks of carrots to add some extra roughage and a powerful boost of vitamin A to your diet.

5. Fresh Salsa with baked tortilla chips

In a small bowl add some finely chopped tomatoes, onions, lemon juice, green chilies, salt and a few drops of tomato ketchup. You can refrigerate this and carry it in a small container whenever you want. Enjoy a handful of Dip Baked Tortilla Chips , that are made from the finest corn kernels – with the dip, and you can have your own healthy salsa party on the go!

6. Hardboiled eggs

Boil two eggs in hot water and store them in the refrigerator. Whenever you’re going to step out, peel the eggs and cut them into halves. Sprinkle some salt, pepper and garlic powder and you have a delightful protein rich snack with less than 140 calories!
