Celebrating National Nutrition Month with Healthy Road Trip Snacks!

Sharing is caring!

Thank you to Babbleboxx for sponsoring our healthy road trip snacks! #FoodFocusBBxx

It’s inevitable y’all. We get into the car and my kids are instantly hungry or they know we’re going out and have to grab a snack first. This happens ALL. THE. TIME. Fellow parents, I know y’all understand this, right? With March being National Nutrition Month and Spring Break being just around the corner I wanted to share with y’all some delicious snacks that are healthier for you and your littles, but are also great for being on the go or taking trips.

We just got back from a weekend away and I made sure to pack plenty of snacks for the road trip to Colorado Springs and back for the kids + snacks for while we were there. I’m a firm believer in feeding my kids a healthy balance of foods, but keep healthier snack options in higher stock. Thankfully my kids tend to grab the healthier snack options before junk and for our trip I made sure to pack a lot of healthier snack options that I knew they would love, like popcorn, granola bars, and crunchy veggie sticks.

Brew Dr. Kombucha

I’ve heard a lot about Kombucha over the years, but hadn’t tried it until recently. Brew Dr. Kombucha is an honest and authentic 100% raw kombucha with only naturally occurring live and active cultures, it’s a probiotic. It’s tasty, low sugar, low calorie, and a better for you drink. It helps with gut health and is a great daily drink to enjoy. I tried both the Clear Mind and Herbal Uplift flavors and really enjoyed the hints of mint in it.

Clear Mind – Their most popular flavor. A brilliant botanical flavor with notes of rosemary and sage. Each herb in the recipe is noted for its ability to assist in mental clarity and focus.

Herbal Uplift – This is the brew for the seasoned kombucha drinker. Made with medicinal herbs, this ideal blend aids in maintaining overall health and wellness.

JOLLY TIME Simply Popped Pop Corn

Popcorn is a staple in our home. From snack time to movie nights, it’s a must have. The JOLLY TIME Simply Popped Pop Corn is a great healthier popcorn option because it’s made with just 4 simple ingredients: butter, sea salt, popcorn, and oil. It’s a gluten-free, fiber-rich snack that contains zero grams trans fats and no hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils. With only 35 calories per cup, Simply Popped is a snack I can feel good about serving to my family. The new popcorn is packed with wholesome, whole grain goodness that keeps people feeling fuller, longer.

I switched my families popcorn and didn’t tell them. I got questions asking what I did to the popcorn because it’s so delicious. Victory y’all!

Simply Popped joins JOLLY TIME’s 18 other microwave popcorn varieties and is sold in packages of either 3 or 6 packs. It is currently available at select retailers nationwide.

Sprout® Organic Crinklez

My kids are pretty good eaters, but I still love to sneak fruits and veggies into their snacks when possible and this is where Sprout® Organic Crinklez come in handy. Sprout® Organic Crinklez are a delicious new veggie snack for toddlers made from plant powered chickpeas and popped with colorful carrots, spinach, and beets that you can see in every bite. Available in Cheesy Spinach and Pumpkin Carrot flavors, Crinklez have a fun shape and crinkly, crunchy texture – perfect for toddlers who are learning to self-feed.

Popped snacks are seeing big time growth. In its 2018 trends forecast, Whole Foods Market predicted that puffed and popped snacks will be a major trend in the coming year and Sprout’s new veggie and bean-based popped snack is sure to be a hit with toddlers!

Our daughter LOVED these and kept asking for more. I’m pretty sure she thought they were chips and would have ate a whole bag for snack time if I had let her. It’s the perfect toddler snack.

JUNKLESS Chewy Granola Bars

Granola bars are another staple in our house and my kids will eat a whole box in one day if I don’t limit them. They’re the perfect grab and go snack because they’re portable, delicious, and each kid can pick which flavor they want to take. JUNKLESS Chewy Granola Bars give my kids a snack they love, but without all the junk! They contain no any artificial preservatives, colors or flavors, hydrogenated oils or high-fructose corn syrup. They contain 0g trans fat and are Non-GMO Project Verified. Order yours on AMAZON.

JUNKLESS CHEWY GRANOLA BARS – CINNAMON ROLL. The JUNKLESS Cinnamon Roll Chewy Granola Bar is almost like eating a cinnamon roll…soft, chewy and delicious…but it’s made with mostly oats. What a great way to start a morning, plus it has only 6g of sugar per 1.1 ounce bar!

JUNKLESS CHEWY GRANOLA BARS – CHOCOLATE CHIP. Unlike many other chewy granola bars, JUNKLESS Chocolate Chip Chewy Granola Bars are moist and chewy, not dry and hard! They are
flavored naturally with chocolate chips with no added artificial chocolate flavors and no corn syrup of any kind – no high-fructose corn syrup. Simply delicious, with only 5g of sugar per 1.1 ounce bar!
