With summer coming to an end, our nights have consisted of movie dates or watching Netflix. We have been trying to enjoy snacks that are natural and healthy. But won’t also keep us enslaved in the kitchen or spending money on multiple ingredients. We have narrowed it down to the best of the easiest healthy movie snacks recipes.
Frozen Treats
While freezing fruit for snacks is no secret, I have never thought of coating my fruit with yogurt or chocolate. Try yogurt and chia covered grapes, yogurt covered apples, or chocolate banana pop.
Other great ideas are to blend the frozen fruit to make a banana peanut butter ice cream or a strawberry-banana ice cream.
Sweet vs Salty:
Its hard to choose one snack when one person prefers salty and the other prefers sweet. While there is the option of buying or making two different snacks, a better way is to coat the same snack two ways. You can cover roasted almonds, roasted chick peas,and popcorn with a sweet coat. Like these cocoa roasted almonds, honey parmesan chickpeas, and cinnamon honey popcorn recipes. Or a salty coat, try chili lime almonds, lemon peppered chickpeas, and buffalo ranch popcorn.
Sweet Balls:
Super easy and natural way to satisfy any sweet craving are some no baked energy balls. While I enjoy making my own with protein, these are recipes that are simple: chocolate truffle balls, coconut heaven, and pumpkin pie balls.
Oven Baked Chips:
Since I am a huge chip and dip fan, my go-to chip alternatives have always been sweet potato chips. Scrolling thru Pinterest, I have other alternate ideas made from veggies like this zucchini chip and an microwave apple chip recipe.
