    Snack Swap Challenge

    • Initiate a snack swap challenge among your friends. Encourage everyone to replace their usual snacks with a mix of dried fruits and nuts for a week. Create a shared online space to exchange snack ideas, recipes, and photos. This not only introduces variety into your diets but also sparks creativity in choosing healthier alternative

    Weekly Nut and Dried Fruit Platter

    • Designate a day each week for a shared nut and dried fruit platter. Rotate the responsibility among friends to prepare and bring a variety of nuts and dried fruits. This can serve as a communal, healthy snacking session during gatherings or virtual hangouts, fostering a sense of togetherness while enjoying nutritious treats.

    By incorporating these actions, you and your friends can make the journey of including more dried fruits and nuts into your diets a social and enjoyable experience. It’s a great way to support each other in adopting healthier eating habits.
