Snack Smart

Make snacks more satisfying by combining two nutritious foods instead of relying on a single item. Pairing fruit, vegetables, or whole grains with protein or healthy fat—such as apples with natural peanut butter, carrots with hummus, or Greek yogurt with berries—can add flavor, variety, and important nutrients. The Healthy Habits Challenge encourages preparing one balanced snack before leaving home so a nourishing option is ready when hunger arrives.
