Living a healthy lifestyle is not just about exercise. In fact, in Sarah Z. Wexler’s interview with Dr. Michele Olson as published on Huffington Post, Dr. Olson says 75 percent of losing weight is watching what you eat and only 25 percent is exercising. It’s hard to watch what you eat, especially when you’re on the go and can only grab a quick bite, so we’ve compiled a list of healthy snacks you can prep to curb your hunger.

Nuts

Mixed nuts do not require any prep at all and are one of the most nutritious snack choices. Just one ounce of nuts contains 173 calories and five grams of proteins, along with nine other nutrients such as vitamin E, magnesium, and fiber, according to Healthline’s Franziska Spritzler. Not only are nuts beneficial to weight loss, they are also high in antioxidants, can decrease the chance of heart attack and stroke, and reduce inflammation.

Apples and Peanut Butter

It’s certainly no secret that apples are good for your health, and for good reason, too. Apples not only enhance neurological functioning, but they can also lower levels of bad cholesterol, all while supplying your body with healthy nutrients, according to Joseph Nordqvist from Medical News Today. From minerals such as calcium and potassium, to vitamins C and B-complex to fibers, apples are a wonderful snack that should be added to your list. Pair apple slices with peanut butter (which have the benefits of nuts), you’ll have a nutrient powerhouse combo for your snack.

No-bake energy goodies

These snack bites do require a bit of preparation, but even then, they don’t require the hassle of baking — just mix, roll and freeze! All of these recipes include nuts, and we already know how nutritious nuts can be. In addition, some also contain chocolate, which is not the weight loss devil you might think it to be. Dark chocolate in moderation is nutritious and packed with iron, magnesium, copper, manganese, along with potassium, zinc and more, according to Kris Gunnars from Healthline. Give some no-bake energy goodies a try with Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Balls, Breakfast Cookies, and Almond Joy Bites from Jaimelyn’s blog I Heart Naptime. You can also go classic with no-bake Granola Bars from Lauren’s blog Tastes Better From Scratch.

Kale Chips

With more than four vitamins and five minerals, kale is not only low calorie, it’s also nutritious, according to Kris Gunnars from Healthline. While we’re not suggesting you add kale to every single part of your daily diet, we do recommend these tasty — and healthy — kale chips as a good grab-and-go snack. Check out this quick and easy recipe for Garlic and Parmesan Kale Chips from Lauren on Taste Better From Scratch.

Smoothies

For low prep and high flavor options, consider adding smoothies to your snack list. Easy Healthy Smoothie has a whole page dedicated to the 23 reasons why healthy smoothies are beneficial. With additions such as fruits and berries to green smoothies with leafy green bases, smoothies are a fast way to incorporate sources of antioxidants, calcium, vitamins, and more into your daily diet. Elizabeth Laseter from Cooking Light gives us this breakdown on how to create your Healthy Breakfast Smoothie, and the Modern Honey blog gives us six recipes for Superfood Smoothies.

Overnight oats

The prep time for overnight oats take five minutes and is the perfect way to prepare for a healthy start to your day. Oats are another high nutritional value food, containing minerals such as iron, zinc and manganese, along with vitamins such as B1, B3 B5 and B6, according to Hrefna Palsdottir from Healthline. Jamielyn from I Heart Naptime gives us six ways to switch up Overnight Oats. Maybe even try prepping one of them tonight!

A large part of staying healthy is giving our body adequate amounts of the nutrients it needs. From vitamins to minerals to fiber, these snacks are full of ingredients that can help supply those nutrients, all while giving you energy throughout the day. We hope these snack ideas can give you inspiration on what healthy snacks to incorporate into your day!
