You’re a college student who needs to balance a healthy lifestyle while enjoying the greater foods and moments in life. So, if you have a mini fridge in your dorm, these are some great healthy, daily snacks to enjoy, along with some necessary splurges too!

Greek yogurt with fresh fruit and granola

Greek yogurt is quite the fad right now, so there are many brands and flavors to choose from in the grocery store. However, my personal favorite and recommendation would have to be Chobani’s vanilla flavor. It goes well with any form of granola, along with fresh fruit, like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries. Maybe even try some bananas or grapes on the side.

These fruits are even better frozen and will last longer (if you have a mini freezer, of course). Chobani carries flavors like Fruit on the Bottom, Blended, Simply 100, Flip, Oats, and of course, Indulgent. If you don’t want to spend money on fresh fruit, then Fruit on the Bottom has you covered. Also, note that the Flip yogurt has seasonal flavors like Pumpkin Harvest Crisp, along with classics like Clover Honey, among many others, and it comes with the toppings, so you don’t have to purchase extra granola! Be sure to check out Chobani’s huge selection and enjoy a fresh breakfast or snack on-the-go.

A Cheese Tray or Lunchables

Cheese is always a crowd-pleaser. Whether you go for a classic cheese plate for a night in with the girls, or serve Lunchables for a more casual get-together before going out, cheese has your back. Go to the Piggly-Wiggly and grab a cheese plate with some crackers and meat, or grab the classic ham, cheddar, and Ritz Lunchable meal. Either way, your friends will be excited, and your mini fridge will be set for both occasions. While your mind is thinking of cheese, throw some string cheese and assorted cheese cubes in your buggy while you're at it. This way, you'll have a study snack for later, too!

If you're lucky enough to have a mini freezer, stock up on a small bucket of Toll House cookie dough ice cream along with your favorite pints of Ben and Jerry's. Being from Texas, I have to say that Blue Bell makes the best ice cream, but Ben and Jerry's has gobs of cookie dough, streams of fudge, and chocolate chunks that are pretty hard to resist. Whether you bake the cookie dough or not, it's nice to have to munch on or to bake with friends. The Ben and Jerry's ice creams can also be enjoyed in moderation or during a Netflix binge. Whatever you decide, you need dessert in your life, and your mini fridge always has your sweet tooth's back!

Be sure to use your fridge for savory and sweet bites to eat during your busy college schedule. Also, don't forget to share your ideas, or actual treats, with your fellow dorm friends, too!
