Quarantine has definitely been an explorative time, with music, at-home activities, movies, TV shows and even food. That being said, after months, those same five snacks in your pantry can become a little bit boring. This snack guide offers some delicious (and healthy) alternatives to your usual quarantine cravings.
- Craving a satisfying salty snack? Check out ParmCrisps for delicious bite-sized cheese crackers. Or fry a slice of cheese on a pan for the same effect! Instructions: get out a pan, add heat, place a slice of cheese on the pan, flip it over once the cheese bubbles and crisps to your desired level.
- Eat some frozen blueberries for a sweet, refreshing, snack, basically the same as smoothies and popsicles! If blueberries don’t strike your fancy, then mango, strawberries and blackberries are great options, too!
- Want an alternative to popsicles and ice cream? Try Yasso Greek Yogurt Bars, and you will not be disappointed. Yasso offers a variety of delicious flavors, such as mint chip, chocolate fudge, chocolate peanut butter and even coffee cookie chips!
- Have a sweet tooth? Grab a handful of chocolate chips to satisfy your craving! Eating them one at a time will burn more calories than you intake through the chewing itself.
- Have you ever tried Topo Chico? A sparkling mineral water with a hint of citrus, Topo Chico is perfect for quenching your thirst and serves as an alternative to sodas filled with chemicals.
- Can’t decide between sweet and salty? Have both! Boom Chicka Pop’s Sweet & Salty Kettle Corn is the perfect snack for any time of the day.
