Snack Attack!

Living a plant-based lifestyle means you get to embrace the ultimate joy of eating: snacks! Honestly, snacks are the MVP of mealtime. They're quick, satisfying, and bring back the magic of being a kid. Who didn’t love snack time?

With plant-based eating, snacking isn’t just fun—it’s essential. It keeps your energy steady and helps you avoid those dreaded blood sugar crashes. The secret to snacking success? Keep your pantry stocked with healthy options. A quick pantry purge might be in order to make sure you’re reaching for foods that fuel you. Bonus: this can be a delicious little adventure. Remember, healthy snacking isn’t about deprivation—it’s about loving what you eat!

Here are a few of my favorites:

Hummus and Veggies
This classic combo is unbeatable. Hummus, made from chickpeas, brings a solid protein punch, and veggies are always a win. Crunchy, creamy, and oh-so-satisfying.

Rice Cakes
I’m a sucker for the apple cinnamon mini rice cakes. They’re sweet, light, and perfect for curbing cravings without overdoing it. Simple and delicious!

Dark Chocolate
As a kid, dark chocolate wasn’t my thing (too bitter!), but oh, how times change. Now, it’s a treat I savor. I like to use it as a little reward for getting through life’s less-than-fun tasks (hello, vacuuming).

Apples
You know I can’t talk about snacks without gushing over apples. They’re perfection—great on their own, with hummus, or paired with almond butter. Is there anything they can’t do?

Cheers to snacking smarter and living Green, Wild, and Free! 🌱🍎
