Snack Girl's Favorite Links

October 15, 2010   5 Comments

It is time to go behind the curtain and find out where Snack Girl gets her inspiration. Most of you think I meditate every day - drawing from the core of the earth my genius snack ideas.

Well, it isn't true :)

The fact is there are SO many great places to find inspiration for healthy eating and living. My list is nowhere near complete and I just felt it was time to thank the writers of my favorite sites for their insight and ideas.

These are a few I look at on a daily basis:

• Vitamin G - Sara Jio over at Glamour writes a fun blog about snacks and other health related content. She has a way of making me giggle.

• Well from the New York Times - Tara Parker-Pope puts together a great list of current health topics. Every Friday, there are a bunch of healthy recipes featured that are ALWAYS amazing.

• Fooducate - Hemi writes great exposes on the state of processed foods and false marketing claims. His blog is VERY helpful for understanding food labelling.

• Fit Sugar - This site is a compilation of different writer, sponsor, and reader content about fitness and eating. It is very positive and fun to read.

Also, I check in on my pals on my Links We Love list to see what they are writing about.

I have a couple other resources that I use frequently. I subscribe to Every Day Food from Martha Stewart for a daily recipe idea. Look over on the right for a place to enter your e-mail for the newsletter. I used to get the magazine, but I like this format better. The ideas are easy, healthy, and family friendly.

To determine how many calories are in my recipes I use Calorie Count Recipe Analyzer. It is a fantastic way to get a handle on the calories and nutrition of any recipe or food that you eat.

Thanks so much for all of your wonderful content!!!
