Healthy Snacks

The only thing better than a satisfying snack is a satisfying, homemade healthy snack! Below you’ll find loads of easy snacking inspiration, whether your tastes are sweet, salty, or savory. I have plenty of energy-boosting, high-protein snacks like these fudgy chocolate date balls and peanut butter oatmeal protein cookies that you can take on the go. If you’re looking for a low-carb way to satisfy those afternoon cravings, try after-work or after-school snacks like these healthy pepperoni pizza bites, or veggies dipped in the best homemade baba ganoush.

I love making these Everything Parmesan Crisps as a low-carb snack, to add to Caesar salad in place of croutons, or a great addition to any charcuterie board as an appetizer.
