With the holidays (and yes, that includes Valentine’s Day) comes temptation in the form of delicious, tasty treats. The best way to stay on track while still partaking in all the loved-up celebrations is by finding yummy, clean-eating snacks that you can bring to work, school or share with someone you love.

My rule of thumb is this: moderation and simplicity. To achieve your fitness goals, you want to place the least amount of stress as possible on your body, and that means foregoing chemicals and non-nutritious substances wherever possible. However, we shouldn’t restrict ourselves too much either, because this causes internal, mental stress. The best thing to do then, is make better-for-you treats that still feel indulgent (and look seriously impressive for your date).
You’d never know that these clean treats are so good for you.
