Posh Popcorn

We've all heard about the 3 pm slump from those very annnoying ads on tv!!! But we all probably have that point in our day where we want to reach out and grab something to munch on.

It is important to remember to use calories wisely. Eating a bag of low fat crisps is good for a treat if you are craving a savoury snack however there are more nutritious snacks for about the same calorie value. A healthier, more natural food would be a small handful, like 15 pistachio nuts or a small portion of wholegrain kelkin popcorn. These foods have no added flavourings or preservatives, a lower sodium content and a much higher fibre content.

This posh popcorn will totally satisfy that savoury craving and keep you fuller for longer.

P.S. Portion control is essential here.

This posh popcorn is an ideal snack to have - keep it sealed in a freezer bag and it makes an ideal snack while on the go !!
