As summer wanes, back-to-school season has officially arrived.  Whether it’s the first day of kindergarten or senior year of college, switching from summer break to school five days a week is never easy.  Alarms are set hours earlier, breakfast is scarfed down as quickly as possible, and everyone’s out the door before they’re even fully awake.

With all the hubbub, it can be tempting to skip breakfast or rely on processed cereals and bars to tide one over until lunch.  But the best thing to hop back in the saddle and get the fuel for school is a healthy, nutritious snack.  Whether it’s fruit for the kids or a bottle of cold-pressed juice for mom and dad, there are plenty of ways to add a little nutrition to the day.

Here are five back-to-school snacks that are as convenient as they are nutritious:

Fresh fruit

One doesn’t need to look far to find food that’s nutritious and portable–nature’s already got it covered.  Plenty of fruit is easy to eat on the go, no preparation required.  Apples, bananas, pears, oranges: the list goes on.  A jolt of healthy sugar and fiber first thing in the morning is the perfect thing to pique one’s energy without an impending sugar crash.

Trail mix

Some trail mixes are full of sugar and granola which make them more trouble than they’re worth.  But a healthy trail mix made with a mixture of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit offers healthy fats and proteins without the need for added sugar.  A little goes a long way, so one large bag of trail mix can be parsed out into small sandwich bags that will keep the kids fed for days.

String cheese

String cheese might seem like something one outgrows after elementary school, but it’s a really convenient source of protein on the go.  While string cheese is more processed than other cheeses, it’s actually considered among nutritionists to be one of the healthier options.  Just make sure to buy it from higher-quality brands that source from grass-fed, antibiotic-free cows.

Protein shakes

While this one does take a minute of preparation, it’s one of the most nutritious, filling options on the list.  A protein shake can be as simple as a scoop of protein powder in water or as complicated as a smoothie with fruit, milk, and supplements.  No matter what goes in a protein shake, it’s easy to gulp down or carry in a bottle or mason jar.  Many blenders have cups designed to be taken on the go, so all one has to do is slap a lid on it and they’re out the door.

Cold-pressed juice

Bottled juice is an incredibly nutritious and convenient snack that’s perfect for all ages.  While juicing at home can be time-consuming and messy, cold-pressed juices like Wonder Juice are premade and bottled for extra convenience.  Each Wonder Juice product is 100% all-natural organic, providing the highest quality nutrition without added preservatives or processed ingredients.

Even the pickiest of eaters can find something to their liking as Wonder Juice houses three distinct brands that encompass a variety of flavors: Wonder Melon, which offers classic watermelon as well as Cucumber Basil and Lemon Cayenne variants; Wonder Lemon, a zesty lemon-based juice whose flavors include tangy ginger or cooling mint; and Wonder Beet, a hardy-beet based juice that adds tasty fruits and veggies for four exceptional flavors.

Each of these snacks offers nutritious, grab-and-go convenience to the morning rush.  There’s no need to settle for processed foods to keep the family fed–with snacks like these, there’s plenty of time to be healthy.
