It takes some planning, she says, but it’s worth it.
Sarah Horning is the mother of two boys and has a baby on the way, so she knows how real the struggle can be to get kids to eat healthy foods instead of junky snacks—and she’s picked up some wisdom along the way. Harning recently shared her latest hack for making nutritious noshes, and it’s taking the internet by storm.
Her snack strategy is a double win: Not only do Horning’s kids love being able to grab the ready-to-eat food for themselves, but this way she also has healthy snacks on hand to throw into a packed lunch or offer an option at dinner when her kids don’t like what’s being served. The post quickly went viral, racking up over 55,000 likes, more than 82,000 shares and tens of thousands of comments. Clearly, her solution for the daily snack time battle with her kids is resonating with a lot of parents.
Fellow moms and dads commented that they do the same thing and it works beautifully, while others said they might even try the idea for their big kids, their spouses and themselves to avoid reaching for unhealthy snacks between meals. "When you are that hungry or that busy, you truly need grab-and-go,” Horning said. “I even saw some people commenting 'I'm 30 and I would still need this to be able to be successful.’ I can't tell you how much produce we used to waste because I had good intentions and I'd buy it. But ultimately if I don't wash it and have it ready to go, no one's going to eat it, including myself. It's not just for kids, but for everybody.
