Fruit and Cheese Snack Tray
This snack has three ingredients: apples, grapes, and cheese. You can easily re-create this at home by buying the three ingredients, but if you’re in a crunch and need something quick on-the-go, this is a great option. Up the protein by adding a greek yogurt or an individual container of milk.

Kind Bar Healthy Grains Dark Chocolate Chunk
Kind has a few different lines of bars, but I love this one because it’s grain-based which gives it a satisfying crunch. When looking for granola bars, I recommend no more than 10g of added sugar per bar (less is always better!). And skip the options with artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols if you’re prone to gastrointestinal upset. If you want to up the protein, add some nuts, seeds, yogurt, egg, or milk.

Wholly Guacamole Minis Chunky Avocado
Pair with fresh vegetables as a dip or with your favorite pretzel or chip. These mini guacamole servings are great for upping your unsaturated fat intake.

So you can enjoy the avocado without needing a knife, plate, spoon - just a pack that you can eat on the go.
