Healthy snack recipes

[The Aspertarian]

What are some of your favorite healthy snack recipes. I am looking for low fat, low carb recipes for dip, chips, cookies, etc.

I do have an absolutely awesome recipe for raw brownie bites and an amazing bean dip (if you want me to share them, let me know), but I am always looking for more. If they have lots of fiber or other health bonuses, all the better.

I would also love to see a photo if that is allowed.

There's one recipe I've found online which is low fat and low carb, and very simple to make. The name of it is chocolate apricot nut bars. You can find the picture of it, and how to make it right here.

I keep it pretty simple with my snacks. I usually have cut-up raw vegetables with hummus. I mentioned this in another thread, but I recently bought this caramelized onion hummus from Costco which is amazing. When I'm feeling more ambitious it is really simple to make your own hummus: http://www.carrieonvegan.com/2013/03/01/roasted-garlic-hummus-healthy-vegan-friday/. I also sometimes eat Mary's Organic Crackers with hummus. Or I will have some cut up fruit and vegetables with almond or peanut butter. Super easy but delicious & healthy!

Kale Crisps. Love them and I can't see anything healthier than those... It is also possible to make them in the oven rather than a dehydrator.

I do them as Sweet Miso Kale Crisps, but I have recently found a recipe for them cooked in the oven and just flavoured with salt & the Bart Chinese 5 spices. it is basically a 100g bag of kale, stalked and stems removed, toss leaves in 1 tbsp of olive oil, pinch of salt and pinch of Bart Chinese 5 spices, spread out across 2 large baking trays and bake for 8-12 mins (until crisp) at 200C.

I do not usually eat snack because I only eat three good meals a day. I had read that there should be long interval of hours in between meals for proper digestion and absorption of foods. But if ever if I want to have something for a snack I always just munch sticks of cucumber and carrots and a glass of fresh juice (apple, orange or mango) just to crave my hunger and thirst and it is also healthy.
