  • Nuts and seeds. Reach for raw or dry-roasted nuts.

  • Air-popped popcorn. Spritz with Bragg Liquid Aminos and toss with nutritional yeast. (Tip: Check out this easy popcorn-making method opens in a new tab).

  • Homemade trail mix. Aim for a protein- and fiber-filled mix such as almonds + dried cranberries + sunflower seeds + coconut flakes. Pair with plain yogurt.

  • Smoothies. Have a half banana or a handful of grapes or greens? Prevent waste — freeze and use in a smoothie at snack time. (Check out our ideas for blending your perfect smoothie opens in a new tab with smart add-ins such as oats, grains and greens.)

Time-saving tip: Buy pre-cut veggies and fruit from the produce department or salad bar.
