Food. Oh, how I love thee.
My work recently just moved offices, and while I now get to enjoy a desk with a window, I no longer get to enjoy the convenience of food. Our previous location had a cafeteria, a convenience store, was right across the street from the mall (food courts), and was close to many restaurants. This new building has none of that. ๐ We have vending machines that only accept cash.ย Cash! Who carries cash these days?!
Needless to say, my eating habits at work are about to change drastically. Just today I found myself hungry mid-afternoon, yet I had no snacks and no cash. I actually ate a few cough drops I had in my drawer hoping they’d hold me over for 3 more hours until I got home. Nope. Didn’t work. I ended up scrounging my wallet and desk for coins and found just enough to buy myself a candy bar (I know, great choice Nicole).
If you’re not hungry enough to eat an apple, you’re not hungry; you’re bored.
So now I’m on a mission to compile a list of easy and healthy snacks for work. I’m looking for both fresh and non-perishable ideas. I usually try and bring a piece of fruit and keep almonds in my desk drawer, but I need variety! I need your suggestions!
What are some of your favorite healthy snacks for work? Please! Share them with me! I’m desperate! ๐
By the way, if you haven’t signed up for my monthly newsletter, please do! I just sent out my first campaign last week. ๐
I eat baby carrots, bananas, hard boiled eggs apple sauce, healthy choice soup, (I eat half of the microwave container and save the other half for the next day. ) Sargent cheese sticks, and mini pretzels, just to name a few things! Also I have bought a nut, sunflower seed, raisin and cranberry medley from Kroger before, very satisfying when I was pregnant. And cottage cheese!
Ooo… Apple sauce would be a good one to keep at work since it’s non-perishable.
