Snack of the Day: Cherry Bomb Skinny Mix by Danielle Schupp

Whether you're on the go with no time to sit, staring blankly at your computer during that 4 o'clock lull, or just watching tv, trail mix is the perfect snack to have on hand. When made with wholesome, natural ingredients, trail mix is sweet, salty, and satisfying. Of course you can sometimes have too much of a good thing (trail mix is high in both fat and calories), but with Skinny Mix created by Danielle Schupp (author of Urban Skinny and prominent New York based dietician) you don't have to worry about going off the deep end because each package is premeasured to be only 200 calories. In just 200 calories, you're consuming "functional foods" that are high in fiber, protein, and heart healthy fats.

Recently I tried Danielle's Cherry Bomb, a delicious combo of coco covered almonds, dried cherries, and pieces of dark chocolate. As far as trail mix goes, this particular Skinny Mix is more on the sweet side, but it was the perfect afternoon snack that curbed my desire to indulge in something that would have made me guilty later.

Tip: Another great variety of Danielle Schupp's Skinny Mix is Peanut Butter and Jelly.
