Let me start this post by saying that I love to snack between meals. I rarely eat large portions at any given meal but I have to eat frequently throughout the day or else I get hangry very quickly. When I was in college, I was all about a midday stop in the cafeteria for a bowl of cereal. When I worked in an office, I was always the person with a bowl of candy on my desk. Now that I’m embarking on a healthier new routine — regular work hours, a commitment to exercise, trying to eat more at home — I can’t get enough of Nourish Snacks.
Here’s what I love about them, plain and simple: they make healthy snacking easy. Each package is perfectly portioned (and under 200 calories) so you don’t have to count out what you’re eating. Every variety is gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian. But they’re all packed with protein, fiber, and antioxidants so they’re still filling and give you a good boost between meals. (I joke that Will should carry a pack or two in his pocket for emergency situations — let’s just say we could have used some in our Uhaul from New York to Dallas.) And, you know, they taste good.
There are twenty-five flavors to choose from but my favorites so far are Mr. Popular (half-popped corn kernels), Granny’s Apple Pie (cinnamon apples and roasted walnuts), and Sweet & Salty Kapow (cherries and roasted edamame). You can buy them in bulk or à la carte on their website but here’s some seriously awesome news: you can now buy Nourish Snacks at Starbucks! Match made in heaven.
What are your tips and tricks for healthy snacking? And if you’ve already tried Nourish, which flavors should I pick up next? P.S. Take 10% off your first order with code DESIGNDARLING at checkout!

Non-organic nuts are downright dangerous – some of the highest concentrations of pesticides of any foods….these would be terrific-er in am organic range….
Hi Mackenzie! I love Nourish and actually keep them stashed in my boyfriend’s car to prevent a case of the hangries!. Btw, I absolutely love the purse! I know this has been requested many times so not sure if this is already in the works, but I would love a post on what’s in your handbag and how you keep yourself organized/motivated on a daily basis.

I love the Take the Bull by the Horns notebook! How cute! Is it from your shop?

Nourish snacks are great; I sent my dad a bunch for Father’s Day and now he’s hooked, too! I’d love to hear more about your new exercise routine, as well. I’m a runner, but I’m looking to mix it up in the coming weeks. Have a great day!
Just doing Pilates and starting with a personal trainer next week! Wish I could get into running… Maybe in the fall when it’s not 100 degrees here! Thanks for reading! 🙂
I love Nourish Snacks! They are so tasty, and the perfect size for an in-between meals snack. I like Berry’d Treasure (sweet but not too sweet) as an after dinner treat, Chili’n in the corner and Holy Habanero when i want something crunchy and spicy, PB Jammin makes a great before lunch snack, and I love Mind your P’s and BBQ’s and Cowboy Crunch whenever I crave something salty. So delicious! I have a monthly order and they are always gone by the end of the month!
These look so yummy! I am always bad about not carrying snacks with me, but these would be perfect!
Thank you for sharing!

These look great, and I love that they’re portable!

One of my friends (who always knows what is up on the healthy food front) told me about Nourish Snacks earlier this year and I have been addicted ever since! Mr. Popular is my favorite also!! They are just so good to pop in your bag when you are on the go, I think they may have single handedly gotten me through my long hours in the library during exam week this year at college!
