There’s a chill in the air and it has nothing to do with the weather. Spooky Season is reaching its climax which means it’s time to dress up and get trick or treating! As much as we adore candy, we’re not always down with all that sugar. We’d never pass up an opportunity to celebrate Halloween, though, so here are three healthier options to celebrate the scariest night of the year. 

Peanut Butter Balls

Love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups? Then you’ll go nuts for these (pardon the pun). Peanut butter is rich in protein and magnesium, and you can even add in extra protein powder for an additional kick!

Sweet & Sour Grapes

If Sour Patch Kids have always been your thing, you have to try these grapes. Sweet and sour at the same time, you can make them tart as you like with the lime juice, or throw in some sherbet for added fizz!

Chocolate Turtles

Sweet, salty, and crunchy? Yes, please! This homemade version of the classic will have you going back for more and more. The dates provide natural sugar and fiber to the sweet treat, and you can use dark chocolate which is a source of antioxidants.
