Happy Friday to ya! If you have been following along on Instagram lately you know that little man is eating me out of house and home, or causing me to do so anyways. So I figured a perfect way to kick off this weekend would be to post a few of my favorite healthy snacks that I have been enjoying recently! Food is also all I can think about so there’s that too lol.
Since I am currently “eating for two” as everyone says, and eating a little bit more that I normally would, I have been trying to fill myself up with more nutritious calories that will hopefully benefit both baby and me!
For the most part, each snack below is pretty generalized and then I go into a little bit more ideas on the item choices. I tried to link some of my favorite products that I use as well, because a lot of times (at least in my opinion) certain brand items are what make the snack!
I’m not usually someone who has to eat specific brand items but there will always be items that I prefer over others and no matter how many times I try to cheap out, I always go back!
I just hit 26 weeks today so I am getting to the point where I am having to eat a lot smaller meals and more of them throughout the day, which is where a lot of the snacks below come into play! When snacking, my main rule of thumb is making sure I am getting both protein and healthy carbs/fats.
I used to be big on counting my macros back in the day when I was really into working out, but those days have passed, at least for now! If you are trying to lose weight or gain muscle though, I HIGHLY recommend using this method! I talk a little bit more about it in my post here.

I needed this blog! I have been so indecisive lately with what to eat. And I want something healthy but just don’t know what exactly I want. With it being so hot these are perfect no bake, easy snacks!

I’m so glad I could help! It’s always so nice to have something easy to throw together that doesn’t require much effort!
