These charming, bright red-orange berries, native to the dynamic, high altitude climate of the Himalayas are phenomenally nutrient rich. Try a handful, blend them into your favorite trail mix or mash them into a mango guacamole that is so good it can be enjoyed by the spoonful.

Nut Butters and Celery or Fruit

There is just something about smooth tasty nut butters slathered on a fresh apple that is unbeatable. Whether you decide to make your own from soaked and dried nuts, organic sprouted nuts or buy sprouted nut butters from Better Than Roasted Nuts, mix and match nuts and seeds to get a variety of nutrients in your diet. Organic Coconut Spread with fresh strawberries (as pictured above) is also a unique and sweet combination to try!

Pastured Eggs

Who said eggs were just for breakfast? Full of amino acids, fat soluble vitamins, healthy fats and minerals, fried up in a jiffy or hard boiled for on the go- eggs are the perfect snack food. Pastured eggs have a superior nutrition profile and are from chickens that are generally raised in a more sustainable and humane manner.
