\"EnergizingHealthy snack recipes to overcome that dreaded afternoon slump<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s nothing more frustrating than an afternoon energy slump. You might have zoomed through your morning at lightning speed but sometime after lunch (usually around 3 pm) everything comes to a grinding halt. A shadow of your morning self, all you want to do is crawl under your desk for a workday nap<\/a> \u2013 or eat everything within reach.<\/p>\n

Instead of choosing another coffee or something sugary or salty, consider an energy-boosting healthy snack to power you through the craving and the rest of your afternoon. We\u2019ve found a bunch of snacks that are super simple to prepare \u2013 whether you work from home or at an office. What\u2019s more, they have all the nutrients you need to get past the slump in an absolutely delicious way.<\/p>\n

Simple & delicious food for afternoon energy<\/h2>\n

\"Energizing1. Fruit & nut butter<\/strong>. Choose your favorite fruit (we love apples) and grab your favorite nut butter (ours is peanut butter). Cut your fruit into slices and slather on the nut butter. The protein gives you longer lasting energy and helps burn the natural sugars at a slower rate than processed sugars. Perfect, right?<\/p>\n
