Almonds

Looking for a healthy, easy snack on the go? A handful of almonds does the trick. Look for dry roasted with little or no salt and avoid the honey roasted or candy coated kind. Almonds are high in protein, fiber and good for you monounsaturated fat. At just over 200 calories for a quarter cup, they’ll provide just what you need to get you to your next meal feeling good. You can buy them direct from the orchard and avoid those high supermarket prices… one clever family we know got a deal by going bulk… $6.20/lb for 25 pounds at www.bellaviva.com and free shipping for orders over $69. Just pack the extras in big Ziploc bags and store them in your freezer.
