Even though they are convenient, they still may not be a good choice, and they definitely are not the best choice.

One of our sister sites, DIY Life, has put together a fantastic list of do-it-yourself 100 calorie snacks. If you package these in reusable containers, you'll also be helping the environment.

These snacks are easy to put together, are actually larger than you would imagine and are chock-full of nutrients and balanced energy. From veggies and hummus to yogurt with strawberries, you've got a well-rounded list to choose from.

There really is something for everyone, so take a step toward better snacking on-the-go and make your own 100 calorie snacks.
