Granola can be a great addition to any diet. It is packed with fiber and good fats. It is important to read the product label and ingredient list and keep in mind that granola can be high in calories, so follow portion size recommendation to avoid consuming too many calories form it.Nuts and seeds
These are super foods all right! They contain antioxidants, protein, fiber, and good fats. They are great add-ons in smoothies and salads, and they are an easy to-go snack. Like granola, a small portion of nuts/seed provide around 100 calories, so be conscious of portion size.Protein bars
These can be great as a snack or meal replacement on a day in which we are too busy to stop for lunch. There a million different types of protein bars in the market today, so read the nutrition labels and compare which one fits your needs best. Some have more calories than you may think.Avocados
