Healthy Snacks for Work

Here are some ideas for a well-stocked snack drawer—one that will keep you satisfied and full of energy, and occasionally help you indulge a bit on the days you really need something sweet or salty to stay alive.


1.     A selection of teas can help keep hunger at bay and perk you up enough to get through the remainder of the day.
2.    Nuts and dried fruits in portion-size bags
3.    Cups of applesauce
4.    Yogurt pretzels or raisins
5.    Fat-free popcorn
6.    Wrapped chocolates or candies (mini or snack size)
7.    Peanut or almond butter is perfect on crackers, on apples, or straight from the jar.
8.    Emergen-C energy packs
9.    Luna or granola bars
10.    Cans of soup or packets of oatmeal


If you have access to a clean fridge where stuff doesn’t get “borrowed,” stock it with frozen edamame, popsicles, yogurt, and string cheese.
