Like many of us, you battle a hectic daily routine. We’ve learned that the key to juggling a busy schedule is to maintain stable energy levels throughout your day. Snacking on nutritious food options will help you keep your energy up and avoid expanding your waistline. Unfortunately, often times, the most easily accessible snacks are also the most unhealthy! Packages of processed chips, crackers, and fruit snacks lurk behind the glass of every vending machine.
Thankfully, there are plenty of easy, delicious and nutritious options to choose from. By stocking your pantry with unprocessed snacks, you’ll eliminate refined sugar, sodium, and unnecessary chemicals from your diet. This will help you get through the day, and stay on track to your fitness goals!

can you put this in a PDF or printable format?
Mel, Will add a print button to this post.
Just wondering if I'm missing the "print" button on this post – I would love to print it out and hang it up for my my kids to see and I noticed that you replied you were going to do one of those buttons. It is so very much appreciated!!
Jessica, No there hasn’t been one added yet. What we’re doing instead is creating a poster than can be downloaded. Check back in a week or so for the poster. 🙂
I just read this post for the first time, but I don't see a print option or a poster to download. Is it available somewhere else?
Judy, At your request, I just added a print button. 🙂
Control P should print and then you just print to file…
better buy organic cause anything else is far from healthy but even organic fruits are gas ripened with ethylene (gmo corn) and anything in a package has some sort of gmo in it. the only healthy snacks are anything you grow yourself.
lol well if we all lived thinking every single thing is bad for us, then i guess we would all starve. it's safe to say that any of these recipes would be healthier than that bag of potato chips we sometimes go for, and i'm pretty sure that's the point of this post.
Farmer's markets are an excellent place to go to shop for fresh fruits and vegetables, etc. They usually have a lot of different things – even arts and crafts or entertainment thrown in too. You can go have fun, get BETTER fruits and vegetables, and help LOCAL farmers out as well.
Please add a print button! Love this!
Thank You
The print button isn't working for me 🙁
copy and paste works as well as printing
Yummm…..I also love apple slices dipped in Nutella and rolled in granola. These are some great snacks!
How can I print the entire list? It will only print the first page no matter what I do.
It may be the page setting in your print options menu.
Be sure to identify that the foods should be organic and/or GMO-free. Especially foods like corn – unless it's organic, is genetically modified with round-up ready chemicals. 🙁
Great ideas but I can't stock my desk with many of them
Print and pdf still only work the first page.
Great article! thank you!
While I think the intention here is great, I have an issue with stating this is "clean" eating. The definition of clean eating means that what you put in your body is natural. The reference to "skinny" anything (peanut butter, ranch dressing, etc.) is far from clean. Please beware and read labels. If you don't recognize something that is on the label – as in you can't actually picture what the food ingredient is, then it's not clean. It's not just about removing high fructose corn syrup and processed sugars from your diet (you should!), think about removing all of the additives and preservatives as well. Read your labels, please!
Karen, We definitely agree about label reading and encourage it throughout the site.
To print- simply highlight to copy and past. Paste the copy onto an email draft, then save/send/ or print. You can even highlight and copy the photos, or the entire article with photos, and transfer the same way.
To add to my previous comment, you can label and save the recipe drafts in a separate e-mail folder if you don't want to print it out.
has anyone tried the protein fudgesicles? Black beans???
How does one eat a diet such as this when allergic to legumes, tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, coconut, etc.?
Deanna, Multiple allergies are a big challenge to manage in any way of eating, but it can be done. If you can incorporate fruits, nuts, and veggies that you are not allergic to and make substitutions that is always good.
One does one's own research for one's specific needs instead of being mad that someone didn't do it for you. There IS a certain amount of responsibility in one's health.
I would love to print it out and hang it up for my my kids to see and I noticed that you replied you were going to do one of those buttons. It is so very much appreciated..!
Just added the print button. 🙂
Is there a poster I can download?
#16 & #47 seem to be the same..or is it?
You have a good eye, thanks for catching it. Check out #16, just updated the snack. 🙂
What is shown with the strawberries and bananas on the front page?
Apple slices…my favorite with this dip recipe. 🙂
I am on blood thinners as 100’s of thousands of us are. Green vegetables and green fruits make my blood very thick and I almost died of blood clots in my lungs. Many recipes have green veggies in them. I cannot find recipes with green excluded. We can have head lettuce but no other greens. Do you know of any resources who print recipes that people who take blood thinners can use? Thank you for any help you can give me.
Deb, I would recommend googling “recipes for people on blood thinners”. 🙂
I am also on blood thinners. The dosage of your medication can be increased by your doctor to compensate if you tell him you are eating more greens. It is not a problem at all. Then, you go in regularly to have your blood levels tested until the dosage is right tor you.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO PRINT OUT THE 50 CLEAN EATING FOOD ‘S ON YOUR WEBSITE?
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU

You can easily copy and paste to a word doc, then delete any text you don’t need. 🙂
Hello, I was wondering where the print button was. I read the post that you added it, I just can’t seem to find it.
Thanks
Stacey, Look just below the photo on each back. 😉

Hi there! I’m all new to this asking questions on the phone. Lol I’m wanting to get my weight off and would the 30 day cleaning over haul be the best book to order to start off with first? I would really appreciate your advice.
Thanks
Velvet

There sure are a whole lot of people telling you how to write your posts, and whining and crying about about things that only pertain to them. I just wanted to say thank you very much for putting this list together so that we may pick and choose what suits our needs and wants. We are ADULTS (or should be) if we want to buy non-organic or organic, eat something we are allergic to, not read labels for added ingredients, etc it is our choice not yours. Why do these people feel the need to be so ungrateful? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE WORK YOU DID WITH THIS LIST!!,
Tara, Thank you for the feedback, much appreciated! 🙂
I for one love this list, thank you for sharing!!!
The lettuce wraps, take the gmo canola oil out and sub with something better..
Very good article. Thank you
