Even if spring has sprung, a lot of the amazing mountains in this country are experiencing massive snowfalls, perfect for snowboarding. Whether you’re planning to spend the day or even a weekend at the slopes, there’s nothing better than being prepared with delicious and nutritious snacks to keep your energy up.

We want you to be able to enjoy every moment of your snowboarding adventure without worrying about packing enough food. Here are some of our go-to snacks for a day on the slopes:

1. Energy Bars –

   A great source of protein and carbs to give you lasting energy throughout the day. Look for bars that are low in sugar and full of healthy ingredients like nuts, oats, dried fruit, and nut butter.

2. Trail Mix –

   A great snack for when you’re taking a break, trail mix is filling and tasty. It’s also packed with healthy fats and protein to keep your energy levels up.

3. Whole Fruits –

   Apples, oranges, bananas, pears—the possibilities are endless! Not only are they energizing, but they’re also easy to transport and require no prep. The skin or peel is nature's own ziplock bag!

4. Nut Butters –

   A great source of energy, nut butters are also delicious! Pack some with you on the slopes in small containers for an easy snack whenever you need it.

5. Dried Fruit –

   Dried fruits like apricots, mangoes, and dates are a great source of energy and can be enjoyed on the go.

6. Cheese –

   Cheese is a great source of protein and healthy fats, which will give you the energy you need to stay on your board for longer.

7. Yogurt –

   Yogurts are packed with probiotics that help keep your gut healthy and provide fuel for an active day out at the slopes.

8. Dark Chocolate –

   The perfect decadent slope snack, dark chocolate is packed with antioxidants and energizing magnesium. It's been known to help improve mental alertness, so it's a great way to power through the day.

10. Jerky! –

    We're big fans of jerky here at Mahogany Smoked Meats, and it's the perfect snack for your next boarding trip. It has a high protein content, so it will keep you energized all day, and because it's packed with healthy fats, it won't leave you feeling weighed down or bloated. Plus, jerky is lightweight and easy to transport, making it an ideal on-the-go snack.
