Apples and Peanut Butter

You’ve definitely heard of this quick snack to try before, but we’re including it to remind you. Apples and peanut butter is one of the easiest and delicious snacks out there, as it only requires two ingredients. You probably already have peanut butter in your modern kitchen cabinets, so all you’ll have to do is pick up a few apples of your choice to complete this ingredient list.

Pre-prep this snack but cutting up your apples and soaking in some apple juice to preserve them until you’re ready to start snacking. Add a drizzle of honey to the peanut butter to add a bit of sweetness to your snack.

3 Ingredient Muesli Balls

This easy snack is a great one to make ahead of time and keep in the fridge before you’re ready to grab them. Muesli balls have 3 ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups toasted muesli
  • 1 cup pitted dates
  • 1/4 cup rice malt syrup

Take 2 cups of your muesli, dates and malt syrup and add to a food processor. Blend together and roll into a ball, rolling into the rest of your muesli. Place on a baking sheet and place into your stainless steel fridge to get firm before storing. Boom! You’re done.

Upgraded Bean Dip

Bean dip is a tasty snack in any form, but here’s a recipe to upgrade this staple snack. Transform this tasty snack and have it on hand whenever you’re craving a bite of something savory.

  • 420 g canned baked beans
  • 400 g canned kidney beans drained
  • 1/2 cup cheese grated
  • 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbs chili sauce *to taste

Heat everything in a saucepan, adding the cheese and sauces last. Top with either additional cheese, sour cream, or green onions and serve with chips of your choice. Delicious!

5-min Chocolate Mug Cake

If you’re looking for a quick snack to satisfy your sweet tooth, this recipe is perfect for you. This mug cake is super simple and worth taking a break for. You can make a few of these ahead of time and store in the fridge. Pop them in the microwave and top with anything you choose.

  • 4 tbs plain flour
  • 4 tbs sugar
  • 2 tbs cocoa
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbs milk
