Snacks for Class

Want something to eat before or between dance classes and not regret it? Try out some of these healthy snacks :)

• Granola/Protein Bar- Easy, grab and go. There are a ton of brands out there, but when selecting stay away from the sugary ones. I personally am a fan of Luna Bars, Kashi, and Barre (made for dancers! realfoodbarre.com).
• Yogurt- Like granola bars there are lots of brands. Look for ones that are fat free or low fat and all natural. I prefer Chobani Greek Yogurt- it has 16g of protein, it's all natural and fat free.
• Trail Mix- Put whatever you like in it! Nuts, raisins, dried fruit, seeds, etc. You can make it yourself or buy it already made.
• Fruit- Grab a piece of fruit for class. Apples, oranges, tangerines, pears, blueberries, peaches... lots of possibilities. You can even cut up a variety fruit beforehand, and put it in a container with plain or vanilla yogurt.
• Small Sandwich- I say a small or half a sandwich so you don't get too full right before you go dance, but it is really up to you and your body on what you can handle.
• Veggies- Grab a plastic bag throw in some carrots, celery, whatever vegetable you desire :) Simple and tasty.
