Need ideas for snacks? Here are ten great options between meals. But keep it to a snack, only a handfull or less.
Top Ten Healthy Snacks
1. Rice cakes- load them with dips or use instead of bread for ‘sandwiches’. If you find them too thick, try those designed for babies – thinner and more dainty.
2. Gluten-free oatcakes- nutty and delicious topped with sheep’s cheese or grilled vegetables.
3. Hummus- great for dipping, home-made is best.
4. Guacamole- another fabulous dip or topping. Again, home-made is streets ahead of the shop-bought stuff.
5. Chopped carrots, celery, cauliflower and mangetout to dip or crunch alone.
6. Nuts – walnuts, pecans, almonds, Brazils.
7. Seeds- sunflower, linseed, pumpkin.
8. Ripe fresh fruit- banana, blueberries, apples etc. Ensure they are really ripe and, ideally, naturally ripened.
9. Organic dried fruits – raisins, sultanas, prunes, currants, apricots, mango, pineapple etc.
10. Falafel- delicious Middle-Eastern chickpea patties
