Spring is FINALLY here! If you're like me, then Spring Break is just around the corner! Unfortunately, I'm not traveling to a special destination, but this blog is for those of you who are. ESPECIALLY those of you anticipating a long road trip!
When you're traveling, it can often times get pretty boring in the car, depending on who you're traveling with. One thing I always do when I'm bored: EAT! As you stop at gas stations along the way to your vacation destination, here are some snacks to consider that won't leave you bloated and gassy!
1. Beverages: Try flavored water! Drinking plain water can be boring, and you're already bored in the car, so you don't want to do that... most other beverages are LOADED with sugar. You could also try out an unsweetened tea or coffee!
2. Almonds! Who knew there were so many different flavors of almonds?? I've always loved just the original salted almonds, but recently I tried the mocha almonds and they're amazing! They also have all kinds of other crazy flavors! Seasoning on an almond is MUCH healthier than seasoning on a chip!
3. Trail Mix! There are also lots of different types of trail mix to cater to your cravings! There are pieces of chocolate in most of them, which isn't necessarily good for you, but it's spring break! You deserve a treat. You shouldn't deprive yourself of all the good things in life :)
4. Snap pea crisps! I still don't quite understand how they make these, but they're delicious, and kind of addicting. The only ingredients: Green Peas, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil), Rice, Salt, Calicum Carbonate And Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Palmitate). The only flavors I've had are the caesar and original. Caesar was interesting... but I highly recommend the original!
You can get creative with your snack choices along the way, these are just some of my favorites! Also, don't make yourself feel too guilty for eating poorly over the break. If you're going to indulge, INDULGE! Feeling guilty about it doesn't make it any healthier.
Happy Spring Break!
