Keeping healthy snacks on hand isn’t easy in everyday life. It can seem even more daunting when you’re on vacation, but never fear! We have suggestions to satisfy your and your family’s hunger without sacrificing the healthier aspects.
Fresh or Dried Fruits
Fruits such as apples, oranges, and bananas make perfect snacks because they are healthy and come in their own biodegradable packing, meaning less waste. And you can’t discount dried fruit either. Those things pack just as many nutrients and vitamins, but you should opt for the kind with less sugar, like mulberries or apricots.
Snack Bars
Kind Bars are a trendy choice in this category. They provide high-quality ingredients and less sugar than most snack bars. Cascadian Farm Granola Bars are all organic; you can even get some without sugar! Win, win!
Nuts and Trail Mix
Nuts are always a great go-to snack (unless you’re allergic!) because of the amounts of protein and fiber to keep hunger at bay, plus they’re just fun to eat! Trail mixes (minus the chocolate candies) are a perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors to tantalize your tastebuds and help keep you full.
Applesauce Packets
These babies are a lot less messy than your typical applesauce container. GoGo Squeez has a delicious variety of fruit blends when you’re on the go. Nutritious and delicious!
Water and Juice Boxes
Are all these snacks making you thirsty? Don’t reach for the soda; grab some bottled water or fill up your own to be more environmentally friendly! There are many out there to choose from. If water bores you, add some natural drink enhancers to liven things up! The kids will also love Honest Organic Juice boxes—all the flavor without all the icky stuff.
Now, pack up! It’s time to enjoy the Hilton Head vacation you’ve been looking forward to. Here’s hoping you and your family have a happy, healthy Hilton Head trip!
