5. Energy balls
Energy balls taste like cookie dough but are made with nutritious whole ingredients. You can make these snacks with either ground flax or whole chia seeds — both source of fiber, protein, and antioxidants. They’re a healthier alternative to commercial granola bars, which are usually high in sugar and artificial ingredients.
6. Bell peppers and guacamole
Bell peppers are naturally sweet and highly nutritious. They provide a good source of fiber, vitamin C, and carotenoids. Carotenoids are plant compounds with multiple health benefits, including supporting eye health. Bell peppers taste delicious dipped in guacamole, a creamy spread made from mashed avocados.
