In an effort to help me and my kids eat more healthy foods during the day, I carved out space for a snack pantry area in our mudroom. Let me tell you – it has been revolutionary!!
It has made packing for lunches so easy, and when the kids come home from school, they just grab something from the bins (thus avoiding any “mo-ommmm, I’m hunnnggggrrryyyy” whining). And I love that the shelves are near the back door, so it’s easy for me to grab a little snack for myself before I hit the road (thus avoiding any potential to get hangry and the temptation for fast food).
It’s been working so well! I usually keep fresh fruit like apples and bananas in there and I’ve also recently been using NatureBox to keep my snack pantry stocked with lots of healthy options.

I have been curious about naturebox for a while and would love to try it out. I am intrigued by the sour cream and onion almonds. Yum!
Would LOVE to try the sun-dried California peaches. They remind me of Summer during a cold Ohio winter. Thanks!
Ohhh. Yes. I would pick the lemon pucker pistachios too. And some teryaki snack mix for the cute boy I live with. And maybe some Chipotle Maple Almonds. Yay.
