180 Calorie Energy Snack

 Here's a prime example of how you can include a mix of healthy and tasty treats that are energizing AND cheap! I bought a bag of pretzels (sometimes I buy this cheap $2 bag and sometimes a more health-conscious whole grain $3-$4 bag), a bag of dark chocolate covered raisins ($2.50) and a can of unsalted almonds ($3.50) = $8. I divided it into five 180-calorie snack bags to throw in my purse/diaper bag (pictured), two 2-cup containers for my husband to take to work, my son and I snacked as I was dividing it up and I still have a bunch left over as snacks for the house! $8 goes a loooong way without hitting up the fast food drive-through!
