Healthy food gift ideas
06 Dec 2023 by Ted Escobedo 2 min read
A popular holiday gift idea is a food basket, but some options are healthier than others. When looking for a tasty treat for the people on your gift list, why not think beyond the cookie trays and consider these options instead:
• Fruit of the month clubs: The idea of getting fresh (and sometimes hard to find out of season) fruit delivered to their door every month is sure to also deliver 12 smiles. Plus, it is a healthy alternative that encourages everyone in the receiving household to dig in!
• Nuts: Yeah, they have calories and fat but almost all dieticians tell us that their health benefits far outweigh that.
• Popcorn: Not just for movie-going, popcorn is a low calorie and fiber-filled snack that can come in handy to have around the house when company drops in. Just make sure to avoid additives or heavily sugared varieties.
• Soup mixes: What can be more convenient that a hearty meal in one bag? From bean soups to pasta and rice, some of the pre-packaged dry soups offer better nutrition and taste than their canned counterparts.
