Tuesday Treats!!!

I am always on the hunt for quick, yummy & nutritious snacks! This past weekend, we were  introduced to a simple, delicious and fast snack idea that is packed with healthy benefits (and the kids and / or hubby will never know it!! Shout out to Health Coach, Crystal Jarvie over at Healthstyles4You for the intro!

Butter is an awesome treat every now and then and I am totally all for it —  there truly are way worse snack choices out there. But, switching it up a bit saves some calories and provides some amazing healthy benefits. A little something every day goes a looong way!!
