Healthy Snacks for Your Corporate Meeting
Promote healthy lifestyles by offering a wide variety of healthy and delicious snacks your corporate meeting guests will enjoy. They will benefit from the added boosts in energy from all the natural ingredients, too. Keep your teams alert and satisfied with these company meeting snack ideas.
Morning
Consider bringing in a make-your-own parfait station, complete with healthy yogurts, non-dairy options, and plenty of fruits and nuts for toppings.
Gluten-free or health-conscious muffin varieties are always a hit for morning meetings. Be adventurous and include new flavors, like orange blossom or lemon poppy seed muffins, in addition to the classic apple cinnamon or banana nut.
Protein balls are packed with energy-boosting protein, with blends of nuts, granola, oats, and fruits. These usually contain protein powders, along with other healthy staples like flaxseed and agave nectars.
Afternoon
Consider bringing in hummus as a lovely afternoon snack. It’s a protein-filled healthy option that provides versatility. Complement your hummus with pita chips, pretzels, veggie chips, vegetables, or breads.
You can’t get much healthier than a comprehensive array of fruit in the common fruit tray. It’s a vitamin-rich provision that provides unique snacking options that everyone will love.
Charcuterie boards are still all the rage these days. And they’ll be great at your corporate meeting, too. Offer something sweet and savory with blends of cheeses, meats, and crackers.
