PROTINIS’ Makes Snacking on the Go a Breeze

With three boys all in activities we are on the go quite a bit. In warmer months soccer practice starts during our dinner hour so we don’t always get a meal served and in the cooler months we camp out at the YMCA. The boys each take swimming lessons and a gym activity, this round is floor hockey, so we can be at the Y for quite a few hours and almost always over lunch time. During days like these, I find it’s easier to pack lots of snacks over trying to worry about an actual meal. Last week, I brought along a PROTINIS™ Meat, Cheese and Cracker Snack pack for the Hubs and I and they were a big hit.


PROTINIS™ Meat, Cheese and Cracker Snack

PROTINIS™ Meat, Cheese and Cracker Snacks from Maple Leaf come in two new flavours – Proscuitto and Provolone and Turkey and Cheddar. While they may look like a grown up version of a kids cheese/meat/cracker pack, we still had to fight the kids off from eating ours!

Tips for Snacking on the Go

Try to keep it healthy. It’s so easy to grab a bag of chips and a pop but that’s not going to keep you going and would grant us some serious glares at YMCA! lol Yogurt, fruit and veggies are good choices that transport well. Keep a bin in your fridge and cupboard stocked with healthy snacks so the kids can easily choose something that is good for them. 

Plan ahead. Dashing out the door at the last minute means we either go hungry or make some poor choices. Take the time to prepare snacks ahead of time. Baking healthy muffins is a great way to get in a little treat without over doing it. The boys are total muffin monsters and always light up when they come out of the bag!

Don’t forget the protein. Quick snacks are often fruit, veggies and yogurt, but keep your body fueled and balanced with some good protein as well. Try low fat chocolate milk, nuts, our favourite is hummus and of course PROTINIS fit the bill with meat, cheese and crackers and 10 grams of protein in each pack!

PROTINIS™ Meat, Cheese and Cracker Snack

I liked the convenience of the portable pack, it’s easy to bring these along just about anywhere. I also liked that these were not your kids cheese and crackers and they didn’t taste like it either. They definitely had a more grown up taste and the only thing that I didn’t like was that there wasn’t more in the package. With just 4 crackers, it made for a light snack.
