1. Fruits and vegetables:
Fruits like apples, bananas, grapes, oranges, and easy-to-eat veggies like baby carrots, sliced bell peppers, and celery sticks, provide a satisfying crunch in addition to vitamins and minerals. These foods are high in fibre, which keeps you fuller for longer, reducing the need to binge on unhealthy foods.
2. Healthy energy bars:
Energy bites, also known as energy balls and energy bars, are small balls made of nutritious ingredients such as oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits. Despite their small size, they are high in nutrition. You can easily prepare them at home and pack them for your trip.
3. Yoghurt:
When your snack options are limited, unsweetened yogurt is a great option. But, it has to be kept in cold storage to avoid spoilage. Choose plain, unsweetened yogurt. To make it flavorful and healthy, you can add toppings like berries, chia seeds, and dried coconut.
