Do you have any quick and easy vegan snack ideas?!
What are your favorite munchies!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
One of my favorites is popcorn!. There are endless delicious vegan toppings for popcorn, and it's awesome plain as well!. As long as you pop it yourself, anyway!. Microwave popcorn is inferior, even if it is vegan!. Trust me, pop it on the stovetop or buy an air popper!. They're pretty cheap, and buying a bag of popcorn kernels is also much cheaper and lasts a lot longer than a box of microwave popcorn!. Another thing I've always loved is tortilla chips & salsa!. There are a lot of unique salsas available in most grocery stores now!. Personally, I love those that have some kind of fruit added to them!.!.!.usually pineapple or mango!. The combination of spicy & sweet is excellent!. :) Nuts are great too!. I love raw unsalted almonds, or tamari almonds, cashews, pistachios, etc!. Fruit is super easy & quick!. Cereal is always great as a snack too!.!.!.either dry or with some kind of "milk"!. also, I'm a huge fan of raw carrots, especially baby carrots!. PB & J sandwiches are easy, quick, delicious & comforting!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Hummus

3 tablespoons tahini (sesame seed butter)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 - 2 garlic cloves, minced

Drain the beans and reserve the liquid!. Process the beans until smooth in a food processor using the steel knife, or mash them well with a potato masher or fork!. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well!.
The mixture should be moist and spreadable!. If it is too dry, add enough of the reserved bean liquid to achieve the desired consistency!.

My all time fave vegan snacks are nuts and seeds (especially almonds) and fruit!. It's worth remembering that dried fruit (apricots, raisins etc) are a good source of iron!.

my favorite munchies are actually fruit! easy to prepare and yummy to eat!
if you're looking for something a little more than just fruit, try some hummus or a nut butter with bread or crackers!. You could also snack on some veggies dipped in homemade vegan ranch(just google some recipes)

I love dipping anything in salsa!.!.!. I usually go for some Organic Blue Corn chips, or when I'm trying to be healthier I have those Baked Tortilla chips!. Another thing I've recently gotten hooked on is dipping pretzels in salsa! It's actually quite good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Oh, you can never go wrong with a veggie platter, pita bread, and hummus!. You may want to get some vegan cookies as well, such as Fig Newmans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
