100 Healthy Raw Snacks and Treats
Try this refreshing selection for healthy recipes for snacks :
Iced lollies or healthy frozen snacks
You will need some ice block molds - the plastic kind with sticks attached that fit into the holder. I wish now I had bought two more so they can be setting while we munch……
Fill ice block holders with lemonade (wait until is stops fizzing before you insert the sticks or you will have very aerated ice blocks like we did the first time - really we like home made or ginger beer is good.
100 Easy and Healthy Snacks and Treats
Any type of fruit juice will be tasty - apple, peach, pear, but pineapple is very refreshing and passionfruit is scrummy added to almost any juice - or juice your own fruit and pour into the moulds to set. If you are in a huge rush to cool down use fruit juice from the supermarket but fresh always tastes best. We have found a delicious and natural juice that is thick and packed with real fruit in a Tropical Nectar that is almost as good as fresh squeezed.
Ice blocks for healthy easy snacks
Very weak jelly can make an interesting iced lolly
Lime juice and home made lemonade
Yoghurt smoothies make great frozen iced lollies
Iced coffee and iced drinking chocolate (added bonus = you know what is in them)
Freeze grapes and taste like mini Sherberts
Skin bananas and mash slightly and place on greaseproof paper or plastic wrap and freeze. These are a quick and delicious snack that is good for you and cooling too.
Super yummy is nice and tart rhubarb juice if you can strike the right balance and it is not too sweet.
