Apples with crunchy peanut butter
Some people can get through the day without a snack. I am not one of those people! There are times that I would rather eat snacks than a meal. Yes, that isn't healthy. But it doesn't have to be very unhealthy if you choose snacks that are good for you. This list, below, includes some of my family's favorites. The asterisked items will have plant-based recipes to follow very shortly. Please check back soon!

- You might be wondering about the inclusion of some of the items on a 'healthy' list. Some studies show dark chocolate, in moderation, is not a bad thing. If you pile on the salsa (the healthy part of the snack) onto a baked or low sodium tortilla chip, then it isn't an unhealthy snack. And once again, moderation. Lastly, Chocolate Chip Oatmeal bars are made with some whole wheat flour and walnuts. This doesn't make them magically healthy. However, they are a healthier alternative to traditional Chocolate Chip cookies made with butter, eggs, white flour, and no added nuts. With all things, please do what is best for your own health and dietary goals.
