Imagine eating a delicious snack and feeling proud of yourself for doing something great for your body. This may sound like an impossible combination, but with the right types of treats, it is possible! Try some of these healthy recipes and add flavor an
d fun to your day.


Though many desserts coated in rich chocolate aren’t exactly healthy, choosing a dark, quality chocolate will give you a boost of antioxidants, while satisfying your sweet tooth. To make sure you don’t scarf down the whole package, melt chocolate and c
oat a peeled, fresh banana with a thin layer. Cool on wax paper. For an extra-special treat, place a Popsicle stick into the banana and freeze for a no-guilt, anytime treat.

Tasty and healthy! Bananas are packed with Vitamin C, dietary fiber and potassium. Dark chocolate contains antioxidant-rich flavonoids, which help protect cells from damaging free radicals.



You don’t need to go on a hike to enjoy this delicious anytime-snack. Many types of trail mix contain unhealthy saturated fats, candy pieces, and high levels of salt. Make a healthier, tastier version using: shelled sunflower seeds, raisins, roasted pe
anuts and your favorite dried fruits. Since you’re not adding salt, sugar, unhealthy oils, or candy pieces, you’ll benefit from the natural ingredients, without the extra calories.

Tasty and healthy! Raisins are packed with potassium and peanuts contain biotin. Sunflower seeds are an excellent source of Vitamin E.




Add fruits and berries to low-fat vanilla or plain yogurt and you’ll get a delicious variety of sweet flavors. Best of all, you can add whatever fruits or berries you’d like, without the extra sweeteners, artificial colors, and calories. Try adding di
fferent berries and fruits to find your favorite combination. For a crunch, add a handful of chopped nuts to this protein-packed snack.

Tasty and healthy! Fruits contain flavonoids, vitamins, and antioxidants – all great for your health. Yogurt is an excellent source of iodine and a very good source of calcium and protein – pick a brand with “live cultures” for immune-boosting benefits.
