Healthy Snacks: Vitalicious Muffin Tops and Brownies

 

I had heard about these Vitalicious snacks from Weight Watchers and a few TV shows like the Rosie O’Donnell show. I thought of them as diet foods and not just healthy good tasting choices. Before I tell you about these healthy snacks from Vitalicious, I need to take a moment to express how I used to feel about healthy snacks. I thought that for something to be healthy, it couldn’t possibly taste good. I used to think that if a food was labeled “diet” or good for you, it had to have a gross, yucky after taste that made you never want to eat it again. Vitalicious seriously changed my mind about healthy snacks. I am now a convert!


The VitaBrownie is only 100 calories, with 6 grams of fiber. They are a good size brownie, not a small bite size and you definitely feel like you are getting your “full portion”. Now that I have told you the diet facts, here is the good stuff. These chocolate chip packed brownies are topped with walnuts and actually taste like real brownies. You or your kids would never know that they are good for you. I will say that they taste a bit more like a chocolate cake then a gooey brownie- but yummy just the same.

The VitaTop™ muffins are genius! The best part of the muffin is the top, so why not only make the tops? I love it! These VitaTops are a great size for snacking at work, at school, in the car, or when you are on the go. If you are bored with the typical granola bar, then this is something new and tasty to try. They are also a low 100 calories and have 4-5 grams of fiber per serving. There are ten yummy flavors from your expected muffin flavors like blueberry or corn, to more interesting flavor combos like AppleBerryBran and Dark Chocolate Pomegranate. They even have sugar free flavors for those with diabetes or watching their sugar.
I liked that not only did all these snacks taste good, but I could actually pronounce and recognize the ingredient list on the box! When trying your best to be the healthiest you can be… why not eat great tasting snacks that are good for you? Wow, I sound like my mother!
