Easy/healthy snack ideas?
I'm looking for some things that don't take a ton of effort to make and will store well. Any ideas? Or are there decent pre-made snacks I can find at the store?

Re: Easy/healthy snack ideas?
I freeze healthier cookie dough in little balls- it's so easy to pop a dozen out and bake them (I bake them at 350 from frozen- no thawing required). I make whole wheat peanut butter (or sometimes almond butter) oatmeal chocolate chip craisin cookies and can give you the recipe if you like.
I pre cut up vegetables and fruit sometimes. Everyone talks about apples turning brown but they still taste fine and my kids eat them so I don't see the big deal. I also cut sweet potatoes into fry shapes in advance, then when I want to eat them I put them on a cookie sheet and bake them. They are very yummy! Mason jar salads are good.
