I get health videos from my employer. Here are my notes on the one about Balanced snakes. Any misinformation is the fault of the note taker.

  • Snacks need a balance of carbohydrates and protein to make a balanced snack for
  • If pick up a banana she will also take a protein shake
  • She takes any fruit with cottage cheese. Cottage cheese has a huge amount of protein .1/2 cup of cottage cheese has 13 grams of protein
  • Mix an apple with peanut butter gives you a more balanced meal .hack
  • Pair whole-grain crackers with an egg salad, tuna salad etc.
  • Get more fruit and vegetables in your diet.
  • Sugar snap peas and dip. High in carbohydrates. Low in protein so pair with an onion dip. With low-fat yogurt and onion soup mix. Greek yogurt is a great source of protein. Onion packets can be high on sodium.
  • Snack bites can include oatmeal, peanut butter, chocolate chips, and coconut.
  • Anything with a nut butter base provides good protein. Oats give you carbohydrates.
  • Mini meals are interchangeable. Lentil soups and high protein macaroni and cheese that have pumpkin in it.
  • Lentils can be poured over rice.
  • Handmade meals and snacks have the advantage of you knowing what is going on in them.
