The Bumpies on our <a title="1st Trimester message board" href="http://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/4236689/ShowForum.aspx">1st Trimester message board</a> shared some of their favorite (healthy!) pregnancy snacks for on-the-go and to make at home.</p>
<p>“I like the packages of single serve edamame they have in the freezer section—super convenient [to cook] in the microwave.” –MargauxGreen</p>
<p>“I’m a big fan of Nature Valley granola bars and bananas, as well as V8 Fusions juices.” –Killer Tomato</p>
<p>“Sometimes when I need something more substantial, I cook a whole wheat wrap with a little cheese. Another favorite snack is to steam a sliced zucchini in the microwave, drain the water and drizzle a little olive oil and pepper on top.” –SuzJune04</p>
<p>“I like Kashi cereal or granola bars, since they have lots of fiber and protein. I also like yogurt mixed with fruit or cereal, plain goldfish, celery sticks with veggie cream cheese and baby carrots.” –LoveBug0516</p>
<p>“I&#8217;m freezing grapes and then as they thaw, they&#8217;re a nice refreshing snack.” –EducatedIvy</p>
<p>“I keep a box of raisins on me in case I get stuck somewhere and end up hungry.  A handful of pistachios can be really satisfying, too.” –catch2010</p>
<p>“Trader Joe&#8217;s sells these pre-portioned trail mix pouches with cashews, almonds and dried cranberries that my husband and I are obsessed with.  I like that I can&#8217;t go overboard with the snack since each serving is individually wrapped.” –smjauch22</p>
<p>“All I&#8217;ve been wanting is loads of ice cream, so I&#8217;ve been subbing in smoothies made with plain yogurt, bananas, wheat germ, peanut butter and lots of ice to give them that ‘frosty’ texture.” –Mrs_Bennett</p>
<p>“A cup of yogurt with about ¼ cup of almonds added into it for a nice crunch and dried apricots (they are really sweet and have good amounts of iron and potassium).” –Beachgirl24</p>
<p>“Hummus and pita! Make plain hummus and have a few things to throw in it to change it up during the week (add some cayenne one day to make a bit spicy, cilantro, cilantro AND jalapeno, roasted red peppers, tomatoes, etc.) that way you won&#8217;t get bored with it.” –LurkieLoo</p>
<p>“For a quick and easy snack, I make chicken salad on crackers.  Take 1 large can of chicken, 1 individual size cup of plain Greek yogurt and one whole dill pickle.  Dice the pickle and mix in a small Tupperware with the yogurt and the canned chicken.  Voila, chicken salad!  Makes eight servings on crackers.  I make it on Monday and take it to work with me to have through the week, and it&#8217;s very satisfying and fresh-tasting.  You could eat it for lunch on a wrap, too.” –TruthSnark</p>
<p>“I eat lots sandwiches on whole grain bread, switching up the toppings: Turkey with spinach leaves, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocado, all ready in containers in the fridge so I can grab and go.” –sunflower.17</p>
<p>“We&#8217;ve recently been buying boxes of pre-sliced apples from Costco. They are way more expensive than regular apples, but they&#8217;re organic, yummy and super convenient! I also love cold apples and hate it if they&#8217;re brown at all, so these are a perfect snack to keep in the fridge and grab.” –MrsBigTime</p>
