September 7: Food: Healthy Snacks

Writer’s Quotes Wednesdays (a Photo or Writing Challenge)

We all own ourself this duty;
To keep our bodies healthy!
What we put in our bodies is what makes us; Strong and healthy or sick and weak. Who says a healthy diet has to be boring or not tasty.
Try food combinations that can give you the maximum advantage and yet are tasty and appetizing.

Eating white meat, especially fish is healthy, adopt this habit
Shun red meat and organ meat as it will make you sick
Add fresh and green vegetables to your diet in oodles
Grain and lentils are good to keep hunger at bay
Don’t use too much white food like flour-based pasta, sugar, or salt
Fresh fruits fulfill the requirement of vitamins and minerals
Staying healthy is very much a choice and so is choosing an unhealthy diet
It is your only body: look after it for there isn’t a replacement

Healthy eating is often associated with food that is considered not appetizing. But many healthy snacks are yummy too.
Nuts, and nut butter, but do make sure they don’t contain corn syrup.
Cheese and yogurt are rich in calcium and proteins and make great snacks.
Fresh fruit like apples, strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries all are great healthy snacks.
Dried fruits like cranberries, figs, and peaches, or fruit chips like banana chips, and apple chips are good to eat and satisfy hunger too.
Cucumber or carrot sticks dipped in yogurt dressing are a savoy alternative when hungry.
Potatoes, boiled, mashed, or baked are perfectly healthy options too. Just hold the butter or sour cream.
Suffice to say, we can always make healthy eating choices, provided we have the will and knowledge to do so. So go on, treat your body to some good food.

Yum, Sadje. Great advice and fun quotes. I’ve been eating nuts for an afternoon snack for the past couple of days and then skipping dinner. I’ve lost a couple of pounds but my husband is out of town so I can’t always do that. This morning I fixed an omelet full of vegetables and different cheeses. It was so delicious, filling, and easy because I used leftover chicken and vegetables that I had already cut or cooked. An added benefit was that it was healthy. Yay!

Thank Marsha. Yes, we always can make healthy choices. Nuts are good and filling too. You’re right that husbands demand proper meals so they have to be catered to.

I completely agree. When I switched to a plant based diet several years ago, the positive effects were notable quickly, and were also long lasting. Excellent post, Sadje.
