No time is no excuse for resorting to an unhealthy snack. These recipes can be whipped up in five minutes or less.
Yep, whether you’re craving a sweet smoothie or salty chips, in under 300 seconds you can tuck into delicious and nutritious healthy snacks without the sugar hit.
1. Winning chips.
When the chips are down, keep them there. Because life’s too short for artificially flavoured, neon-orange crisps. Unless of course you whip up a batch of this sweet potato variety. Try other real vegetable versions like kale and beetroot too.
2. Smooth operator.
Most store-bought smoothies are full of sugar. The only thing you’ll find in this version is good fats, sweet berries and a whole lot of creaminess.
3. Deeply dippy.
Store-bought cream cheese and chilli sauce dips are often loaded with sugar, so swap them with this equally creamy and spicy version of hummus.
4. Pick the right popcorn.
Is there anything better than toffee popcorn, you say? We may be biased, but we think this sugar-free caramelised version, stuffed with crunchy nuts, hits the spot…
5. Nibble on nuts.
When it comes to heart-healthy fats and fibre, a handful of fresh nuts is where it’s at. But if bland, soggy nuts in a communal bowl, drive you, err, nuts, try this tasty, crisp mix instead.
