“Who says indulgent can’t be healthy?” ask the makers of Sahale Snacks. And there is no better way to describe their nut-based snack packs: indulgent and healthy.
My healthiest snack intentions are sometimes derailed. Bananas and nuts are great, but after a month or so – YAWN. Sahale Snacks provides something a little more exotic to fill your tummy and your taste buds. Plus, Sahale has a wide diversity of snacks, which is great for anyone who has ever been in a snack rut.
Justin’s Peanut Butter and Almond Butter Squeeze Packets
Come on, ’fess up: How many of you can’t buy peanut butter because you know that once you open it, you won’t be able to get your finger out of the jar?
Generally, my snacking indulgences lean more towards salty treats. I love cheddar popcorn, roasted nuts, and pretzels, but when my sweet tooth does start crying out for satisfaction, it’s nice to have some snacks up my sleeve.
In my quest towards a healthier lifestyle, I’ve come to regard three criteria as very important in determining my snack choice. They are:
The first thing that comes to mind when you think of a snack is something sweet, salty, or crunchy, maybe something purely indulgent. But as most of us have come to realize, snacking is not just about satisfying cravings, but also being healthy.
This is particularly true when it comes to toddlers. Most toddlers do not eat enough at meal times to get their necessary nutrients. Healthy snacks not only prevent toddlers from becoming hungry and cranky, they also provide essential nutrients needed to fulfill their nutritional needs.
Here I am going to cover 3 wholesome snacks for tiny tots.
So, you’re puttering around your cupboards for a snack and you can’t find anything decent. What about that oatmeal stacked behind the cereal? Who’s to say that oatmeal is only delicious and nutritious in the morning, huh? And how about throwing in a banana for some added flavor? The combination is a quick, easy snack. Sweet, warm, and creamy - it just tastes like home.
I’ve found that a great way to work nutritious foods into your diet is to just keep it simple. And this snack does that in spades. Let’s start with the oatmeal and work our way to the fruit of the matter, shall we?
If chocolate is good for you, and almonds are good for you, then chocolate-covered almonds must be good for you… right?
I love anything coated in chocolate—chocolate-covered nuts, chocolate-covered fruit, chocolate-covered graham crackers, chocolate-covered chocolate… But how do you know which of these treats are in the good-for-you category, and when they’re in the once-in-a-while-indulgence category?
Can you have a chocolately delcious mid-morning snack that’s also healthy? It seems to be a paradoxically sticky situation, but… the gang at The Healthy Snacks Blog has done it again!

As wonderful and enjoying as snacking is, too often it is a cause of stress. Choosing a healthy snack on the fly isn’t always easy, and the stress of finding something pure and delicious can sometimes lead us into the arms of processed junk, fried foods, and refined sugars. Snack bars are convenient because you can buy a couple of them at a time and stash them away in your desk, car, or kitchen cupboard.
Beverages are all too often the place where sneaky and unnecessary sugar and calories go to hide. A person could go crazy trying to find a delicious drink, free from artificial sweeteners and additives! But, not if I have anything to do with it. I’ve found an alternative and it involves going completely Naked.
