It can be hard to eat well during the work week but you can stay on track if you know how to Meal Prep Healthy Snacks for Work!
Healthy snack ideas are so hard to come up with sometimes. I'll admit that I definitely fall into the same old snack rut time and again then get bored with eating the same old thing.
And let's face it, it's not easy to come up with healthy snacks, let alone remember to pack them in your lunch! I'm not a fan of most store-bought snacks because it's hard to read labels and determine whether or not what you're eating are whole foods, so when in doubt I make my own healthy snacks for work – and they don't have to take all day either!
This round up of meal prep snacks is designed for the busy foodie in mind – I've included a bunch of sweet options along with some healthy savoury ones. I'm a big fan of mason jars for snacks just as I am with meal prep salads because they're a great way to recycle old containers and keep everything stored safely – think fun dip ideas that you can enjoy with chopped up veggie packs!
I've also listed some healthier homemade snack options like beef jerky and granola bars that will give the store-bought versions a run for their money! Whether you have some time to prep ahead or are literally trying to spend only 30-minutes on healthy snacks for work there's bound to be a couple healthy snacks that you're going to love!
