3 Easy Fruit Snacks to Take Anywhere

By Genevieve Cunningham

Everyone loves a good snack. There’s something about reaching for a little bite of something between meals that is just so satisfying. It satisfies the stomach. It satisfies a craving. It satisfies the mind. But snacking can get really dangerous really quickly. If you’re not careful, snacking can absolutely ruin a healthy diet. Luckily, there’s a way to have your cake and eat it too when it comes to snacking. To keep your love for snacking alive without ruining your healthy menu, take a look at these three fruit snacks to always keep on hand.

Apples

Apples are an easy snack to grab on the go. Grab, rinse, and throw in your bag. When you eat it, you don’t need any silverware or special equipment, and all you have to worry about is throwing the core in the trash. So why choose an apple? Apples are full of Vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. They also have a high water content. When you eat an apple, you’re likely to feel fuller longer. The fiber may get digestion moving, the Vitamin C can boost your immunities, and the water can keep you hydrated. Apples are definitely easy, and as for health, they’re a definite win.

Bananas

Another easy fruit to grab when you’re on the move is the banana. No washing required … just grab and go. Toss the peel in the trash when you’re finished, and that’s all there is to it. Bananas are full of Vitamins C and B, which are responsible for keeping you well and boosting energy. They also contain fiber, which helps you feel full, and they provide you with a healthy dose of potassium, which can help ward off muscle cramps. If you want something easy and healthy, you can’t go wrong by grabbing this yellow fruit.

Grapes

These require slightly more prep time … but only by about one minute. Wash the grapes, toss them in a ziplock bag, and leave them in the refrigerator. When you need a quick snack, just grab the bag. Grapes are delicious, and they make a great snack because they’re literally bite sized. So what are the health benefits? Grapes are a good source of Vitamins B and C, healthy carbohydrates, healthy fats, and healthy sugars. They’re juicy and sweet, and they make an excellent addition to any menu. If you want a snack that makes the mouth water, start with a bag of juicy grapes.

Your choice of snacks can help keep your diet on track, or it can completely wreck it! It’s important to make good choices. Use these delicious fruits to keep healthy snacks on hand. With a little planning, you can keep your healthy diet on track while still enjoying your snacks throughout the day.
