31 Portable Snacks That Are Delicious and (Mostly) Healthy
When you're bopping around the house, it’s smart to have a plan for the moment hunger strikes. (Otherwise, you might just find yourself undergoing a very elaborate baking project at 3 p.m.) Getting hungry just thinking about snack time? This handy guide will help you choose an assortment of delicious snacks to satisfy even the most killer of mid-morning, afternoon, or late-night cravings. And while most of them are healthy, we did throw in a few treats, because we're nice like that.
Almonds
Pre-packaged almonds are a great, portable snack with lots of protein to fuel you. For the healthiest option, choose raw or unsalted 100-calorie packs.
Lara Bars
These fruit-and-nut bars are tasty, are made in a variety of flavors and feature plenty of all-natural ingredients. Key Lime Pie is a fan favorite, and you can never go wrong with Chocolate Chip Brownie. Yum!
Hummus and Crackers
Hummus and Chips = a Delicious and Dependable Snack. The combination of creamy and crunchy is hard to beat.
Bananas
Bananas come with their own natural wrapper, for easy portability. (How thoughtful!) Slather it with some peanut or almond butter to up the nutrition and flavor. Sweet and salty, yes please!
Apple Chips
These crunchy Fuji-Reds apple chips are satisfying, gluten-free, and easy to transport. A baked apple chip a day keeps the doctor away!
Fresh Grapes
A bunch of red or green grapes are always a sweet and refreshing snack. Pro tip: pop a bunch in the freezer for a refreshingly cold snack.
Mini Pretzels
Sometimes you get a post-lunch craving that only a salty crunch can satisfy. Choose a bag of bite-size pretzels for your next hunger pain.
Crunchy Fava Beans
Crunchy fava beans? Give ’em a try. These plant-based protein snacks are perfect when you’re in the mood for a healthy crunch. Two Amazon reviewers summed them up perfectly, “These are darn good.” And, “Read the ingredients. You can pronounce them all.”
Chocolate and Dried Fruit Trail Mix
Sure, you could buy individual packages of nuts, chocolate, and dried fruit for DIY trail mix. Or, make it easy on yourself and order a 48-ounce resealable bag of Nut Harvest trail mix, complete with M&Ms, raisins, almonds, and cashews. Simple and delicious.
Goldfish Crackers
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers are a favorite for a reason. Classic cheddar is an easy go-to for kids and adults alike with the help of a reusable snack bag.
Gummi Bears
Gummy candy was made for stashing in cupboards. It’s a soft, non-odorous food that easily fits in any candy jar. Sometimes, you just need a sugar hit. Go for the classic gummi bears from Haribo.
Rice Krispies Treats
Rice Krispies Treats are so satisfyingly ooey gooey and chewy, they’re downright decadent.
Popcorn
Who says popcorn is just for movie night? Light and airy, yet oh-so-satisfying, popcorn is a fantastic anytime snack. These Smartfood popcorn snacks come in three tempting flavors: white cheddar, sweet and salty kettle corn, and movie theater butter.
Fruit Cup
Fruit bowls are an effortless way to add a little sweetness to your day; these leak-proof fruit cups by Dole feature ready-to-eat peaches packed in white grape juice. Vitamin C in a cup!
Clif Bars
This legendary energy bar is a favorite among athletes and adventure-seekers. It’s definitely hearty and yummy enough to substitute as a meal replacement on your next busy WFH day. Nice to meet you, Chocolate Chunk with Sea Salt.
Dried Fruit
This healthy snack of dried fruit is available in three natural flavors: pineapple, cherry, and mango. Bonus: they’re unsweetened, but still super flavorful.
Beef Jerky
A favorite protein-filled snack for those on the Keto diet (or anyone just trying to limit carbs and added sugar), this pre-packaged tasty beef jerky is sure to satisfy hunger pangs.
Rice Cakes
Rice cakes have come a long way. These crispy, healthful snacks are available in a variety of sweet and savory flavors, like apple cinnamon and caramel. Smear ’em with some almond butter for a heartier snack.
Instant Oatmeal
Quaker’s yummy oatmeal (in blueberry hazelnut, apple walnut, and summer berry) is nutritious, comforting, and simple to make. The disposable cup is virtually mess-free. Easy peasy.
Hot Sauce
Hot sauce isn’t exactly a snack on its own, but it will zest up your next meal. Perk up WFH lunches with this adorable mini Tabasco, or go big with this Amazon favorite.
Babybel Cheese
Babybel: the delicious semisoft cheese with its own protective case. The mild flavor pairs nicely with crackers, fruit, and nuts for a DIY cheese plate.
Stroopwafels
This sugary, flat cookie (literally, a syrup waffle) is a delightful Dutch treat to enjoy while working, puzzling, Hulu-bingeing…anytime, really. Pro tip: place it on the top of a steaming cup of coffee to warm it up.
Seed Crackers
It’s crunch time! Bite into a few of these crispy, organic seed crackers that are made with flax, sesame, and brown rice. And no worries if you have dietary restrictions, they’re gluten-free and certified organic!
Organic Fruit Snacks
Who says fruit snacks are just for kids? Tantalize your taste buds with Izze Clementine Bursts, naturally flavored and certifed organic chews with—you guessed it! Juicy clementine.
Protein Balls
Craving some salty pistachios, sweet cranberries, and major energy to get you through the lunch-to-dinner stretch? It’s time for a Supersnack! Munch on a few Cranberry Pistachio Figgy Pops—bite-size balls of whole foods.
Seaweed Snacks
Light and easy to transport, all-natural seaweed snacks are a savory snack that’s both healthy and delicious. Natural sea salt provides a gentle kick of flavor.
Almond Butter Packs
It’s okay—give it a squeeze! Justin’s individual almond butter packs are made with all-natural ingredients and are high in protein and low in carbs. The packs come in several delectable flavors, including hazelnut and maple butter.
Pop Chips
Grab a single-serve Pop Chip bag for your hunger pang and enjoy snacking at its crunchiest. Offered in an array of flavors, including sea salt and “Crazy Hot”—these baked chips are just so good (and half the fat of fried chips).
Gourmet Chocolate Bar
Keep an emergency stash of gourmet chocolate for those extra stress-y moments. Hammond’s Chocolate is a Colorado favorite, and known for delicious combinations—from classic sea salt caramel to the more unorthodox potato chips and bacon.
