Unfortunately, the standard American diet (SAD) offers many fast foods that we eat with our fingers, but only deliver us metabolic misery. Here are some truly healthy finger foods that you can whip up quickly, with the knowledge you are also delivering nutritious food without the encumbrances of a knife, fork, or spoon!

Cheese please! In the northwest, we are blessed with many amazing purveyors of cheese. If we can avoid processed cheeses with additives and other unhealthy ingredients, there are many options for choosing truly healthy cheeses, made purely from dairy. Cheese offers calcium, fat, protein, and often beneficial microorganisms. Loaded with vitamin A, B-12, zinc, phosphorus, and riboflavin, cheese offers us so many nutritious options. Cheese made from grass-fed animals will be the highest in nutrients and also contains beneficial omega-3 fatty acids.
