Easy Vegan Snacks | Wholefoods plant-based

Want to incorporate more plant-based eating or need some inspiration for some vegan snacks? You are in the right place. Here are some Snacks Ideas!

Let’s see them all:

Vegan Yoghurt Bowl

This snack is super easy and comes together very quickly. Simply take your favourite plant-based yoghurt, add some fresh fruit, some nuts or nut butter and seeds or granola. This is also great for breakfast

Some toppings ideas:

• Plain granola, peaches, almonds
• Banana, peanut butter, hemp seeds
• Mixed berries, chia seeds, almonds
• Granola, blueberries and pecans

Nut Butter Toast

• 

This is one of my favourite combinations! Toast your favourite bread and top it with your favourite nut butter and some fresh fruit. Some of my favourite combinations:

• Peanut butter, banana, cinnamon
• Almond butter, pear, cinnamon
• Cashew butter, strawberries
• Almond butter, apple

Chia Pudding

Chia pudding is really delicious snack, but you need to prepare it in advance. It is very easy though! Simply mix 2 tbsp of chia seeds with 1/2 cup of milk, 1 tsp of sweetener, mix everything to combine then let sit in the fridge for at least 20 minutes, the more the better. You can add other things for flavour such as cinnamon, chocolate and vanilla extract

The consistency is very unique, jelly-like. You can then top it with granola, fresh fruit, chocolate, nut butter and so on.

Hummus and raw vegetables

Hummus and vegetable is a filling and delicious snack. Also a great way to eat some protein! There are different types of hummus but the most common is the traditional chickpea hummus. Try it with carrots, celery, cucumber, peppers.

Fruit and Nut Butter

• 

Fruit is always a great snack, but I find it’s not always so filling so I like having it with some nut butter, usually almond butter, but you can use any your prefer! I especially love apples and bananas paired with it.

Smoothies

Smoothies are a quick and easy snack. You can customise to your liking and use any fruit you have in the house. To make it more filling I like to add some nut butter and oats. To make it extra creamy you can add ice cubes or freeze the fruit in advance.

I also recommend sneaking some veggies in there, like spinach or peas, to get some extra veggies in, I promise you cannot taste them if you use a base of fruit.

Energy Balls

Energy balls are little balls usually made from nuts and dried soft. They are super easy to make and are no-bake.They’re loaded with protein and nutrients and they’re just so yummy!

Here’s how I make my chocolate and coconut energy balls:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup oats
• 4 dried figs/dates
• 1/4 cup flax seeds
• 1/8 cup cocoa powder
• 1/8 cup almond butter
• 2 dark chocolate blocks
• 6 tbsp water
• enough dessicated coconut to coat 

Method: Place oats, figs, flax seeds, cocoa powder, almond butter and chocolate blocks in a food processor and blend. Add the water until it reaches a consistency that is moldable. When done, form little balls with the mixture and then dip in dessicated coconut to coat (optional) . Eat immediately or place in the fridge in an air tight container and enjoy late

Dates and Nut Butter

If you haven’t tried stuffing dates with nut butter you’re missing out! They are so delicious! Pair it with some fruit or eat alone, they are so good!

Trail Mix

This is a super easy snack and perfect on the go, pair it with some fresh fruit and you’re good to go!
