Healthy snacking with Urban Fruit + GIVEAWAY!

Getting back to your normal diet after indulging at Christmas can be hard.  I seem to be back on track with most of it, but more often then not I always seem to struggle when it comes to snacking. 

For me eating 3 straight meals everyday just doesn’t work.  I much prefer to eat 6 rimes a day, which includes 3 snacks in between my main meals.  Eating this way keeps my blood sugar stable throughout the day, which is prone to dropping quite dramatically.

With this in mind trying be inventive with my snacks can be difficult and I do end up getting stuck in a rut and eating the same things. A few weeks ago I was generously sent a selection of Urban Fruit samples to review for the blog.

How cute is the bowler hat!?

I received bags of Superberry,  Apple and Pear, Mango and Strawberry.  What I love most about Urban Fruit’s dried fruit is that it is made from 100% fruit and free from sulphite which is usually used to preserve the colour of dried fruit.

I had tried the dried Mango and Apple and Pear before, which I loved, however I was yet to try the other two flavours that I received. The Superberry variety id a mix of Golden Berries, Cranberries and Red Grapes meaning that it’s packed full of Vitamin C, fibre and iron.  The dried strawberries are delicious and reminded me of sweeties, obviously without the high sugar content.

I’ve really enjoyed trying out these products and would happily buy them as they are a very affordable healthy snack.  Urban Fruit products are widely available in most supermarkets and are frequently on a promotional offer.
