It happened by snaccident.
This is always my reason excuse whenever I find myself holding a bag of chips or munching on a bar of chocolate. I cannot help it! I am a serial snacker. I get hungry easily even if I just ate. I guess my body’s used to snacking ‘coz I have fast metabolism. But my body can only properly burn the food I eat & convert it to energy if they’re healthy food. Otherwise, junk food & processed food end up getting stored in my gut which in return gives me that bloated (aka puson) feeling. While I like indulging on chips & chocolate once in a while, I find myself craving for healthier snack alternative especially on days when I feel like I really need all the energy I can get.
So here are a few snacks I’ve discovered which I find much healthier than my usual snack suspects. Heehee.
Greek On The Go. Greek yogurt coated pretzel bites. Such a yummy snack with less the guilt! Available at Healthy Options.
Simone’s Original Snack. All-natural dehydrated fruits and vegetables. Local brand that offers gluten-free snacks. Order at Simone’s Original Snack on Facebook.
Bark Thins. Non-GMO snacking chocolate. Need I say more? 🙂 Available at Rustans Supermarket or S&R.
The Superfood Grocer Vegan Dark Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies. This gluten-free chocolate chip has become a staple snack at home. I make sure I bring a pack with me when I drive around so when I get stuck in traffic, I won’t go crazy hangry. Heehee. Available at Urban Pantry & www.thesuperfoodgrocer.com.
JA Lees Farms Mushroom Chicharon. I discovered this through my friend who offered this while we were at her home. She said she got it at a weekend bazaar. Weeks after seeing it at different bazaars (malls usually), I’ve been hoarding it since I’ve been addicted to snacking it. They now have different flavors which I hope to try all.
