TDA has produced, posted on the squaremeals.org Web site and widely distributed its brochure, “Suggestions for Nutritious Snacks,” but it is not intended to be a comprehensive list. TDA has not specified what qualifies as a nutritious snack other than that it must meet the Nutrition Standards specified in the TPSNP. Generally, a snack would be considered nutritious if it is less than 200 calories, is less than 30 percent fat, is high in protein and is high in vitamins and minerals.
