Cinnamon Covered AlmondsAlmonds are my go-to snack when I’m on the go. To have a sweeter option that’s super healthy and easy to make, try adding cinnamon and roasting for an hour and voila! Something a little different for your afternoon pick-me-up.
Classic HummusI used to always get store bought hummus and think I was being super healthy. While it’s a great source of protein, there are additives that I can avoid in making the dip myself. I love to experiment with different kinds but the original hummus is always the biggest crowd pleaser. As most hummus lovers do, I pair carrots with the hummus for the perfect healthy and protein packed snack.
Frozen GrapesI’m not a big dessert person. I would much prefer a salty meal but sometimes even I just need something cold and sweet. I started freezing grapes a few months ago and it’s the perfect after dinner snack. Simple and delicious!
Garden HummusThere is always homemade hummus in my fridge. This hummus recipe is just a variation of of the classic hummus with just some basil and parsley to change the consistency and flavor. You’ll impress your guests for sure! Pair with cucumbers for an extra green snack.
GuacamoleThere is little I love more than good guacamole. I make this whenever I’m hosting friends or as a good dish to bring to a party. It’s easy to make and such a crowd pleaser. If you pair this with the plantain chips, you’ll be all set!
Plantain ChipsI love chips! I used to love buying the Trader Joe’s plantain chips because they were so delicious and perfect to satisfy my chip craving. One day I decided to make my own and loved them even more! The most time consuming part of this recipe is cutting into the plantain. It’s a tough exterior, not at all like a banana. But once you cut it, you’re good to go. The only catch with these is they don’t stay good and crispy for a long time so make them and eat or serve them right away.
