SNACK

“When I am running around, I put together a cooler of snacks,” says Denise. “I chop up fruit — like berries, pineapple and papaya — and vegetables, and add those little round cheeses, nuts and yogurt.”

“She was almost an A, but the mac-and cheese lunch brought her down a grade,” says Keri. “For something cheesy, a corn tortilla with cheese, spinach and salsa would be better. But she’s doing a great job with snacking to keep her satisfied and ensure that her energy is up.”
