It’s the last week of our Go Bananas challenge! How many characters have you met along the way?
Keep your new habits going long after this challenge has ended with these snack ideas to squeeze more fruits and vegetables into your daily diet:
- Portion grapes into small containers and freeze to enjoy a cool and crunchy treat later.
- Dip carrot sticks in hummus to make a great, fiber-full combination. Hummus or ranch dressing makes an ideal dip for a broccoli, cauliflower, or cucumber mid-afternoon snack, too.
- Unsweetened, single-serving fruit cups are easy to transport and require no refrigeration.
- Strips of colorful peppers dipped in salsa create a tasty afternoon snack.
- There is nothing quite as easy or delicious as popping a few cherry tomatoes in your mouth to boost your intake of vitamin A.
- Clementines, oranges, and tangerines require no preparation. Simply peel and eat.
- Pair berries or kiwi slices with a small scoop of low-fat yogurt for a delicious combo.
Remember to log your final days of points for your chance to win the $500 Whole Foods gift card and cheer on your Cooper colleagues on the path to health and wellness.
