Grab-and-Go Snacks

Having snacks that are easy to eat while on-the-go can help fuel your body with energy to feel great.

Aim for a snack that includes carbohydrate, protein, and fat. Here are some examples to consider:

• 1 small piece fruit (small apple, ½ banana, 1 medium orange, or 1 cup watermelon or berries) + 1-2 Tbsp. nuts
• 2 Tbsp. raisins or other dried fruit +1-2 Tbsp. nuts
• 6-in. tortilla + 1 string cheese
• 1 packet plain instant oatmeal + 1-2 Tbsp. nuts
• ½ cup unsweetened yogurt + 1-2 Tbsp. nuts
• 6 whole grain crackers* + 1 string cheese
• 6 whole grain crackers* + ¼ cup tuna
• ½ cup fruit + ½ cup cottage cheese

*​​Consider choosing whole-grain crackers that have 4-5 g of fiber per serving.

Each person responds to food differently. If you have a condition like diabetes, talk to your healthcare provider about quick snacks that work for you.
