4 On-the-Go Snack Ideas for Mom
Even if I’m not in the car – sometimes I’m on my bike because I can ride to the library, the drug store, and a couple of other places from my house and get some exercise at the same time – so, I still might not be at home or near a kitchen. Sometimes I really need snacking on-the-go.
A couple weeks ago my friend Becca and I went on an 11 mile bike ride after we dropped the kids off at school. It has been a little cooler lately, especially in the mornings and evenings, and we knew we wanted to take advantage of some of the gorgeous fall weather – and, like I mentioned I’ve been working on, balance some healthy activity into our day.
11 miles isn’t huge in the going-for-a-bike-ride scheme of things, but it was enough that we knew we’d want to take a little break to refuel. I grabbed a couple of these ready-to-go small plates from Hillshire Snacking.
4 On-the-Go Snacks for Mom
Roasted Chickpeas – I love the crunch of the roasted chickpeas, the spicy flavor, and of course the fact that they are a healthy snack. Perfect when you’re craving something savory.
Nuts – Raw, unsalted nuts are great, but if you are craving something a little sweeter or savory try some of these make at home options. Store in an airtight bag, or individual serving sizes, to make on the go snacking quick and easy.
- Cinnamon Vanilla Walnuts
- Sweet and Spicy Rosemary Mixed Nuts
- Salted Vanilla Maple Nut and Seed Clusters
Meat, Crackers, and Cheese – My favorite are these ready-to-go small plates from Hillshire Snacking. It is all packed up, sliced, and ready to go which is perfect for my busiest of days.
Granola Bars – Make your own and keep them on hand to stash in your purse, or keep a supply of some of your favorite store bought options for quick grab and go. A few recipes:
