3 Snacks to Try! (vegetarian)
Nina
Hi all,
It's been a while since I've shared my passion for food anywhere other then on my My Fitness Pal App (username @count_frogula) so after sharing some of my new food pics to make your mouth water on facebook, I think it would be only fitting that I share the recipes so you can enjoy them at home! Here are some simple snacks that I love to eat throughout the day to keep me going.
1. Avocado Toast
- Half an avacado
- Mikes Killer Bread "Good Seed" (yellow packaging)
- Pompeian robust extra virgin olive oil
- Sea salt
- Pepper
Toast the bread, slice the avacado and place on toast, sprinkle salt & pepper, give it a light drizzle of olive oil and enjoy.
This simple recipe really tastes so delicious and I know you can go to a health food restaurant and pay $8-12 for two slices but it is so much more satisfying making this at home for much less.
2. Carrots & Hummus
- Bag of carrots
- Sabra hummus
- Cayenne pepper
- Black pepper
So this is sooooo simple, bring out the carrots, crack open the hummus, put on your dish or to-go container, sprinkle cayenne pepper and black pepper and dip the carrots to enjoy!
I love this snack when I don't have time to make a production of a snack, it's great for grab and go meal prepping snack!
3. Bruschetta Lettuce Wraps
- Romaine head of lettuce
- 1 or 2 beef steak tomatoes, or whichever ones are on sale
- Feta cheese
- Fresh basil
- Pompeian robust extra virgin olive oil
- Sea salt
- Pepper
Wash and pull off two large romaine leaves set them on a plate. Chop tomatoes in small cubes and mix in a bowl with chopped basil, salt, pepper and olive oil. Place tomatoes mixture on romaine leaves and sprinkle feta cheese on top. Fold leaves on the sides and eat like a taco.
This is probably the freshest tasting snack in the bunch and very refreshing! Perfect for a summer day or can be made in bulk as a party snack!
I hope you enjoyed these mini recipes, please comment below and share your experience making these snacks!
