Let’s talk snacks!
I am a firm believer in snacks! Snacking can get a bad rep but if you are choosing healthy options, snacking can be a crucial part in a healthy lifestyle!

Honey & Lime Fruit Salad
There is nothing quite as refreshing as a bowl of fresh fruit! This delightful combination leaves your taste buds happy and you tummy wanting more!
The key is to use all FRESH fruit. Be sure wash it first (get my produce wash recipe here), chop it into a big bowl, snitch a few pieces and smile at all the BEAUTIFUL colors!
Fruit is something we should all be consuming in our diet on a regular basis! There are so many options to choose from and each one has unique nutritional contents that nourish our bodies.
A few health benefits:
- Kiwis: extremely high in Vitamin C.
- Bananas: great source of potassium, which is used to maintain fluid and electrolyte balance in our bodies.
- Blueberries: high antioxidant content, low sugar fruit and full of fiber which helps keep us “regular”.
- Pineapples: reduces inflammation and helps fight cancer.
- Grapes: can help with high blood pressure.
- Strawberries: boosts brain function and immunity.
