Get Healthy: Keep unhealthy snacks out of sight to ease mind

If you find yourself reaching for the same box of cookies or bag of chips in the pantry night after night, do yourself a favor and rearrange your food.

As the popular saying goes, out of sight, out of mind, so place high-fat, high-calorie indulgences in the back of the pantry, fridge or freezer, and bring healthier snacks to the forefront.

• No-sugar added applesauce, dried fruit and nuts make for quick and satisfying pantry snacks.

• Fresh fruit and chopped vegetables have a better chance of getting chosen if placed on the top shelf in the fridge.

• Frozen fruit and berries are excellent freezer staples for whipping up frosty, naturally-sweetened smoothies.
