Hey everyone, check out this great new cookbook up for grabs to 3 lucky Picky Palate readers by Sara Lee. I have spent the last few days flipping through the book and it is incredible! It’s a beautiful hardcover cookbook, full of great photography and health conscious recipes. Here’s some info on the book:
Sara Lee is partnering with The Heart Truth Campaign to raise awareness of heart disease among women and encourage them to make heart healthy food choices every day to take care of their bodies and their families. One of the best things a mom can do for her family is take care of herself. One of the easiest ways to take care of herself is to establish a heart healthy eating routine.
Here’s how to enter: Leave a comment and tell us all what your favorite healthy snack is. Fruit, veggi’s or whatever you can enjoy that’s healthy, let us know!
Contest ends Sunday night, midnight PST. I’ll post the 3 random winners first thing Monday morning.

I love fresh fruit from the road stands in the summer!
My favorite healthy snack is edamame. It is plain, but filling and healthy. My kids love it too!

We love fresh fruit. Sometimes we have apples with peanut butter…very yummy. Or frozen bananas.
Fresh raspberries…if only they were available all year round.
Apples and oranges! I can never get enough of them.
Apple slices dipped in yogurt dip. The best yogurt dip I make is plain yogurt(light) and mix in some cinnamon as much as you like. Dip fruit slices as you like but my fav is apple slices.
I recently dried some canned pineapple (in its our juice) everyone in our family love it.
Pretzels and hummus!
oops, the last comment saying smoothies are my favorite heart healthy treat is from me.

Vanilla yogurt with granola and bananas sliced on top or fruit smoothies made from frozen fruit or canned and vanilla yogurt. Both are quick and easy!

Light Laughing Cow Cheese wedge spread on wheat thin high in fiber vegtable crackers. YUM!
My favorite healthy treat is frozen red grapes (Costco has the best grapes!). They are really good at curing that sweet tooth!
cottage cheese and strawberries!!
Our favorite snack in our house is Granny Smith apples with peanut butter. You get the great sweet/tart taste and crispness of the apples, with the savory taste of the peanut butter. A little carb, protein, and fat all rolled into one. It’s amazing at curbing those awful cravings!
A big bowl of fresh fruit salad with all the summertime fruit!
Hmmm…I have many, but I love Laughing Cow cheese(the onion flavored one is the best)!!! I usually eat it with either an apple or a serving of crackers or pretzel crisps.
There’s a lot, but I’d probably say plain strawberries or cut up apples with a little fruit dip. The women in my husband’s family have a strong history of heart disease, so it’s a cause that’s important to me. Great giveaway Jenny!
I love carrots with roasted garlic hummus.
Thanks!
My favorite snack is a stick of string cheese. I will eat one before going to the gym.
Blueberries and walnuts, easy and delicious!
I love Edamame–steamed or I just found some dried ones at Costco that are a little salty and crunchy!!! Yummy.
This cookbook looks awesome!!
I think my FAVORITE snack food has to be baby carrots with caesar dressing YUMMY!!!!!
I love fruit. my daughter and i will eat just fruit for breakfast sometimes.
My favorite snack is FRESH pineapple! OH SO JUICY! = )
Smoothies are my favorite snack. 1 cup frozen fruit, 1 cup juice and some yogurt. Mmm, delish!
I love any type of fruit or veggie tray with dip.
I love snacking on hummus with veggies!
I try to eat an apple and/or blueberries every day. Both have great health benefits. An apple with a little peanut butter or plain yogurt with blueberries and a little Xagave are delicious and nutritious.
I would have to say apples and string cheese. Because they are quick and easy!
My favorite healthy snack is red delicious apple wedges with a touch of Smart Balance crunchy peanut butter on top. You could add yellow raisins, too, if you like those.
my favorite healthy snack is wheat thins with a little cheese on them.
