In This Article:

Ever in a snacking mood but still want to keep it healthy? This is a list of snacks that are relatively healthy, and taste good. Some are sweet, some are savory, and some are salty. Some of them are all three, so give one of these a shot!

1. Rice cakes with nut butter

This one is always my go-to. I use salt-free rice cakes, then spread on any type of nut butter (I love Justin's Maple Almond Butter). I almost always add chocolate chips or a drizzle of honey.

2. Key lime pie in a cup

This snack was my friend's idea, and it is SO GOOD. Just squeeze a fresh lime slice or two onto vanilla yogurt and crush some graham crackers over the top. Mix it all up and you have key lime pie in a cup!

3. Dessert Hummus

Dessert hummus is really good, especially when you need something sweet. I like to dip fruit and pretzels into mine. It is delicious, and healthier than eating sweets.

4. Trail mix

This one is really simple and easy to make. I always try to add dried fruit and chocolate of course!

5. Nut butter on (almost) ANYTHING

https://www.pexels.com/photo/closeup-photo-of-white-and-black-printed-ceramic-mug-beside-pastry-907810/

This is another one of my go-tos. I love spreading nut butter on graham crackers, nature valley bars, and almost anything!

6. Tortilla chips with guacamole

This one is pretty self-explanatory. I love this snack because it tastes good, has carbs, and healthy fats in it!

7. Oatmeal

Oatmeal is a very satisfying breakfast or snack to have. I like to top mine with berries and brown sugar and/or cinnamon.

8. Avocado toast

https://www.pexels.com/photo/bread-and-sliced-lemon-on-white-ceramic-plate-880461/

Avocado toast is a great snack- healthy and tastes good! I like to top mine with a fried egg and sometimes sriracha!

9. Frozen yogurt

https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-mixing-cereal-milk-and-strawberry-jam-on-white-ceramic-bowl-704971/

This is exactly what it sounds like! Sometimes I freeze the yoplait containers of yogurt, but I plan on freezing yogurt and berries in a popsicle mold soon.

10. Chocolate pretzels

https://www.pexels.com/photo/chocolate-chips-on-mug-675955/

This snack is super easy too. Just melt some chocolate chips, and dip pretzel sticks into it!

Next time you want a snack but want to keep it healthy, try one of these out! They are all super easy, taste good, and are good for you!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
