I’m a busy bee. Working full-time, cycling to work daily, working out, cooking & baking, blogging & travelling. Yes, it’s a lot for a little person like me. But, I’m also well-organised and never leave home without healthy snacks packed into my backpack. Easy to grab and carry, always helpful when I get hungry when running around.

These snacks give me a lot of energy to survive my busy and challenging days. They are not only nutritious, but also yummy and … my favourite!

Almonds

A handful of almonds is just the perfect daily snack for me. The high-protein, nutrient-rich nuts help suppress my appetite, beat flab and also keep my heart healthy.

Hummus + carrots

Hummus is easy to find in most grocery stores and it’s a perfect dip for many fresh veggies, especially my favourite carrots. When I know there is going to be a busy day I pack a small food container with some chopped carrots and a lot of hummus.

Peanut butter cookies

With a busy day ahead I can’t forget about my vegan peanut butter cookies. Extremely crunchy and creamy, they are one of the best things to snack on throughout a busy day.

Green smoothie in a jar

It takes me a minute in the morning to blend all of my favourite fruits with spinach and then pour the smoothie into a glass jar. Such green smoothie fills me up for hours and gives me a lot of energy for the whole day. A list of top 5 super powerful smoothie monsters can be found here.

I’m a real banana girl. Each time I feel hungry I snack on bananas and I can never get enough of them. I also love to use bananas in my baking. My top recipes are: banana bread recipe, banana & chocolate muffins and banana and pumpkin bread.

What are you favourite snacks on the go?
