I attended a breakfast function last week at which I received a goodie bag, and inside I found this cute tin… It’s the perfect size to pop in your handbag for when you’re hungry, on-the-go, and oh-so-tempted by unhealthy snacks…
(You can order one for yourself via the Australian Almonds website HERE for only $1.00!)
This got me thinking about other healthy foods which can be a permanent fixture in your handbag without the worry of them squashing, spilling, smelling or spoiling. My five faves are:
Almonds – A serve of 18 almonds is only 126 cals, plus they’re easy to eat on the run and are super healthy – Click for more info
Uncle Tobys Bodywise Digestive Balance bars – One bar equates to 111 calories, and delivers quarter of your daily fibre needs, which keeps you feeling full for longer – Click for more info
Tinned Tuna – One 95g can of Safcol Tuna in Springwater is a mere 71 calories, while still being a great source of protein and omega 3. It may be a bit smelly but if you’re mindful of the people around you this one is a fantastic snack (just don’t forget your fork!), also make sure you choose a brand which uses sustainable methods of fishing – Click for more info
Nabisco Premium Snack Packs 98% fat free crackers – A good way to get a mini-carb hit without the calories – only 98 in fact! These snack packs contain four double squares of crackers, so you feel like you’ve eaten a lot. Handbag warning: may be prone to getting crushed – Click for more info
Nice&Natural NUTricious for your heart – These resealable packs contain a combination of almonds, pistachios, dried cherries, cranberries, strawberries and flame rasins, all selected for their heart-friendly nutritional benefits. One 30g serving contains 130 calories and is the perfect mix of sweet, savory, chewy and crunchy – Click for more info
