The Best Healthy Snacks From Sprouts

Written by Beatrice Walker / June 28, 2022

 
 

Snacking has gotten such a bad wrap lately that people feel guilty admitting it’s something they do as if it’s something to be ashamed of. I personally identify as a bona fide snacker, and I really hate that snacking has such a negative connotation because having a snack to satisfy a hungry, rumbling tummy isn’t bad at all, it’s actually quite normal.

The true problem arises when choosing the types of snacks that will nourish us and help carry us over in between meals. Because of the amount of highly processed, sugary, salty, and dirt cheap fast foods that are available pretty much everywhere, and marketed at us at such an aggressive rate, most people don’t even think to consider healthy snack alternatives.

Healthy snacks also get a bad wrap because most people think there aren’t any solid options that are affordable, and also don’t taste like bird food (V important). Sprouts is one of my favorite grocery stores because of the amount of healthier snack options they have. So here is a list of my favorite delicious healthy snacks I’m absolutely loving right now.

 
 

Oui by Yoplait Dairy Free Yogurt

 
 

This is the best dairy free yogurt I’ve tried, and I’ve tried a bunch! What I like most about Oui’s brand of coconut yogurt is that it doesn’t have a strong coconut flavor, which a lot of people who don’t like coconut yogurt complain about. I also love that there are different flavors like mango and strawberry (mango is my favorite obvi).

 
 

Sprouts Marinated Artichokes

 
 

I used to not be a fan of artichokes until I tried these marinated ones. They’re super flavorful and taste amazing on their own, or on top of a nice piece of crusty bread.

 
 

Cedars Organic Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

 
 

Hummus is an easy go to snack, and this roasted red pepper flavor from Cedars is my absolute favorite. Put together a nice crudités of sliced veggies, and get to dippin!

 
 

Simple Mills Soft Baked Bars

 
 

Simple Mills is a fantastic brand that makes healthy, affordable, and really tasty snacks! Most breakfast cereal bars contain lots of unidentifiable ingredients and various forms of sugar, but not this one! The banana bread flavor happens to be my favorite, but they have other equally yummy flavors available like carrot cake and peanut butter chocolate chip.

 
 

Siete Grain Free Lime Tortilla Chips

 
 

These Siete tortilla chips are an amazing healthier alternative to regular corn tortilla chips. These chips are made with cassava flour, and they taste almost exactly like regular corn tortilla chips.

 
 

Good Foods Chunky Guacamole

 
 

If you don’t have time to make homemade guacamole, this is the best next thing. I’ve tried many different types of pre-made guac’s and this one is by far the best tasting. It’s also made with real, whole ingredients and no additives just avocado, tomatoes, onions, red onions, cilantro, lime juice, sea salt, jalapeno peppers, and garlic. Simple.

 
 

Boars Head Dill Pickle Spears

 
 

I love pickles and the best way to judge a pickle is by its “snap” factor. These Kosher Dill pickles from Boar’s Head have that perfect crunch and sour bite. Vlassic doesn’t even come close!

 
 

Simple Mills Rosemary & Sea Salt Almond Flour Crackers

 
 

Simple Mills is strikes again with their selection of seed and nut based crackers and the rosemary sea salt almond crackers are so dang good! I love that the ingredients are simple and easy to read. They also happen to be gluten free and you legit wouldn’t even know!

 
 

Tru Fru Frozen Dark Chocolate Cherries

 
 

If you have a sweet tooth and love chocolate, this is the snack for you! These frozen chocolate covered cherries from Tru Fru are the BOMB!!! Seriously addictive AF. Be sure to try their other chocolate covered frozen fruit offerings like the chocolate covered blueberries and raspberries. SO freaking good.

 
 

Siete Grain Free Cookies - Mexican Wedding

 
 

Another favorite from Siete is their grain free cookies. These crunchy and nutty shortbread cookies are so tasty and satisfying you only need a few to help curb a sweet craving. Bonus points: they’re gluten free and you can read every single ingredient on the packaging!

 
 

Applewood Smoked Sea Salt Almonds

 
 

Even though tree nuts are extremely healthy, and one of the best super foods available, I am admittedly not the biggest fan (it’s a texture thing). But these applewood smoked sea salt almonds are absolutely delicious! They have a bbq-y, smokey, salty flavor combo going on, and I have to be careful to not eat the whole bag in one sitting.

 
 

Olipop Classic Root Beer

 
 

For all of the soda drinkers out there looking for a healthier alternative this is it! Olipop is a sparkling tonic made with prebiotics and plant extracts so it’s great for digestive health. I was surprised at how similar it actually tastes to rootbeer (which used to be my favorite kind of soda) and how incredibly low in sugar it is!

 
 

Simple Mills Sweet Thins - Honey Cinnamon

 
 

If you like graham crackers you will love these honey cinnamon sweet thin cookies from Simple Mills. They’re sweet/salty and melt in your mouth tasty, plus like all Simple Mills items they’re made with really great ingredients that you can actually pronounce!
