Healthy, protein-packed snacks?
Lately I’ve been looking for ideas on snacks that are easily portable, don’t require refrigeration/heating up and are packed with protein - especially for longer bike rides.
The two main types of snacks we tend to eat that fall into this category are trail mix/granola and baked bars.
For trail mix, we usually throw together a combination of:
- raw nuts (cashews, almonds, peanuts, walnuts, pistachios)
- dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, figs, dates, apples, pineapple)
- baked grains (cheerios, puffed rice)
- sweet or salty (pretzels, chocolate chips, cacao nibs)
Granola is harder to do without adding unnecessary sugar, as are baked bars, so we haven’t made them very often, but are interested in finding healthier alternatives to the recipes we already know.
Do you have a favorite trail mix, granola, or bar recipe? What do you snack on?
