THRIFTYFRUGALMOM

We typically aren’t big snackers at our house.  But lately, the children must all be in growth spurts, because it seems like they’re always getting hungry between meals!

In an effort to get healthier, I’ve been calorie counting.  But some days I misjudge the number of calories that I’ll need to eat at lunch in order to hold me over until dinner and end up needing to eat a snack to help me out.

To keep us from resorting to grabbing a handful of potato chips or a cookie, I decided to make a list of simple, healthy snack ideas that the kids and I could easily make so that we have something nutritious to eat whenever we have a hunger attack.  And then I figured, why not share them with you too!
