It is officially the end of the holiday season. Now is the time we start to feel like we ate way too much chocolate between Christmas, New Years and Valentine's Day. I know I have watched my waistline increase ever so slightly over the holidays... it always does. It is simple human physiology, we create monsters within ourselves as the more sweets we eat, the more our bodies crave them. A vicious cycle that increasingly becomes more and more difficult to overcome the longer we give in to them.
So, my solution to that all too frequent sweet tooth craving??
Grapes!
Keep a bowl of grapes out in a high traffic area where you can just grab a handful of grapes as you pass by. The instant (and easily accessible) sweet that grapes provide is a great way to curb that pesky craving and encourage healthy eating in the process. They are a perfect snack for kids too!
