70 Easy Snack Ideas!

I'm always looking for new snack ideas...especially since sitting in class makes me really hungry. And I happen to do that a lot ;) I also know that if I want to avoid eating junk and feeling gross, the key is having good healthy snacks around. Not to mention how much cheaper it is to pack your own...it's a little easier to resist the call of Tim Horton's if I have a bunch of food with me already!

So here are 70 snack ideas that I generally eat on a regular basis. Most of these are grab and go options, and the rest are pretty simple to make as well.
