Healthy Halloween Treats To Celebrate Spooky Season
Store-bought candy can be downright spooky if you look at the ingredients and nutritional facts printed on the packaging. Don’t worry, we’re here to help you get excited about eating healthy on Halloween. We want to make it easy to choose pure and simple food you can feel good about. So, we’re sharing some of our favorite healthy recipes for creative, tasty and spooky treats.
Halloween can be a daunting time to keep up your healthy lifestyle when every grocery store is lined with rows of candy. But it doesn’t have to be. There are no tricks here: By simply swapping out traditional treats for any of the healthy Halloween treats below, you can still enjoy the holiday – without inducing any sugar highs or suffering from day-after guilt.
Our PB2 products typically contain 4 to 6 grams of protein per serving and are free of preservatives, artificial flavors and artificial sweeteners, PB2 products are also void of any GMOs (genetically modified organisms). Plus, all the recipes we’re sharing are portable and easy to handle for those trick-or-treaters or Halloween potluck parties you’re attending. Parents in your neighborhood will thank you for the healthy choices you handed out on Halloween night, and the kids will thank you for sharing the yummiest treats they received.
These five treats are delicious, easy to make, and a great substitute for those tempting Halloween treats high in sugar and artificial ingredients. These spook-tacular desserts offer a balance between treating yourself on a beloved holiday and keeping your mind and body healthy.
