Super Swaps for National Snack Month! 

Dishing my ‘Healthy’ish’ Hacks

and Super Snack Swaps

Fresh Food is always on trend and the way to Super Snack! Pickles are my first trend -- crunchy and satisfying,

what you want in a snack without reaching for chips!

Grillo’s Pickles are made with crisp, clean fresh cucumbers; a 100-year-old family pickle recipe, made with only

ingredients you’d find in your garden, like Organic dill, fresh garlic from California, and some grape leaves as a

natural preserver (versus other pickle companies that use chemicals and preservatives like calcium chloride

and sodium benzoate). Pickles are vegan, gluten-free, low-calorie, and fit in trending eating styles like Paleo,

Keto, Weight Watchers.

Sip your snack with the Bone Broth trend. Bare Bones Instant Bone Broth packets are are perfectly portable

protein. Just rip and stir into hot water, super quick & easy snack for sustained energy without the crash or

empty calories -- all nutrient density here: prebiotic fiber, to help you feel full longer, and feeds your good gut

bacteria. 10g protein per serving, 5g collagen per serving and rich in minerals.

My Healthy’ish Hack for ‘snack bars’ is to get your veggies in too! Made Good Granola bars contains one full

serving of vegetables and are a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Made with dried fruits and whole

grains, and pure sunflower oil that is low in saturated fat and has no trans-fat.

Snack Shots, portion size with a punch for a healthy microbiome.  Kefir Minis by Lifeway are probiotic and

protein packed, in a 3.5 oz. yogurt smoothie shot, packed with 4 grams of protein, high in calcium, 12 live and

active probiotic cultures.

A Super Snack Swap with Seaweed. Seaweed Snacks from GimMe are the perfect superfood swap for chips or

sweet snacks and kids + adults love them. They are full of nutrients - including high levels of iodine, calcium,

Omega 3s, biotin, folate, fiber, protein. Organic, vegan, keto, and gluten free.
