Snacks-
Uncut fruits- apple, pear etc are good
Also you can pack dry fruits and nuts in a zip lock or even roasted chanas or roasted bajra in a zip lock.
Healthy protein bars are great. My friend shared this recipe with me. It is fabulous. It is simple, easy and healthy.
Take 1-1/3rd cup dried pitted dates
1cup cashews
1cup walnuts / any other nuts
Vanilla extract - estimate
1cup dried blueberries / whatever dried fruit you like. I used cranberries today but probably get something else for my next one.
Blend this well. It will get sticky. If not, add 2 spoons of water.
Then in a flat ziplock box, flatten this and keep it in the fridge for a few hours and cut into cubes. That is it! :)
