10 Relatively Healthy Snacks Even The Pickiest Eaters Will Like

https://www.pexels.com/photo/appetizer-assorted-bowl-cheese-302457/

Ever in a snacking mood but still want to keep it healthy? This is a list of snacks that are relatively healthy, and taste good. Some are sweet, some are savory, and some are salty. Some of them are all three, so give one of these a shot!

1. Rice cakes with nut butter

https://www.pexels.com/photo/bread-creamy-food-fruits-236834/

This one is always my go-to. I use salt-free rice cakes, then spread on any type of nut butter (I love Justin's Maple Almond Butter). I almost always add chocolate chips or a drizzle of honey.

2. Key lime pie in a cup

This snack was my friend's idea, and it is SO GOOD. Just squeeze a fresh lime slice or two onto vanilla yogurt and crush some graham crackers over the top. Mix it all up and you have key lime pie in a cup!

3. Dessert Hummus

Dessert hummus is really good, especially when you need something sweet. I like to dip fruit and pretzels into mine. It is delicious, and healthier than eating sweets.

4. Trail mix

This one is really simple and easy to make. I always try to add dried fruit and chocolate of course!

5. Nut butter on (almost) ANYTHING

https://www.pexels.com/photo/closeup-photo-of-white-and-black-printed-ceramic-mug-beside-pastry-907810/

This is another one of my go-tos. I love spreading nut butter on graham crackers, nature valley bars, and almost anything!

6. Tortilla chips with guacamole

This one is pretty self-explanatory. I love this snack because it tastes good, has carbs, and healthy fats in it!

7. Oatmeal

Oatmeal is a very satisfying breakfast or snack to have. I like to top mine with berries and brown sugar and/or cinnamon.

8. Avocado toast

https://www.pexels.com/photo/bread-and-sliced-lemon-on-white-ceramic-plate-880461/

Avocado toast is a great snack- healthy and tastes good! I like to top mine with a fried egg and sometimes sriracha!

9. Frozen yogurt

https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-mixing-cereal-milk-and-strawberry-jam-on-white-ceramic-bowl-704971/

This is exactly what it sounds like! Sometimes I freeze the yoplait containers of yogurt, but I plan on freezing yogurt and berries in a popsicle mold soon.

10. Chocolate pretzels

https://www.pexels.com/photo/chocolate-chips-on-mug-675955/

This snack is super easy too. Just melt some chocolate chips, and dip pretzel sticks into it!

Next time you want a snack but want to keep it healthy, try one of these out! They are all super easy, taste good, and are good for you!

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
