Crisp Peas
One of our family favorites that’s also a hit at the office. Peas are crunchy, flavorful, and because they’re homemade, they don’t contain all the things we’d rather not eat
Ingredients:
a small can of chickpeas
teaspoon olive oil
a lot of salt
pepper to taste
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
baking and kitchen paper
Preparation:
Put the peas in a colander, wash and drain.
Spread on two sheets of kitchen paper and let air dry for 45 minutes. Then preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Mix the oil, salt, pepper and rosemary and add the peas.
Place everything on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in the oven on the middle rack for 45 minutes.
Crisp Peas are low in sugar and saturated fat, making them a tasty alternative to potato chips.
Peanut Butter Crispbread – Healthy Snacks
For those who don’t enjoy spending time in the kitchen, there are two non-perishable ingredients you can stash in your desk drawer for a healthy, ready-to-eat snack: crusty bread and peanut butter. Peanut butter’s combination of long-chain carbohydrates, unsaturated fatty acids, and protein keeps you full longer and keeps your blood sugar steady. Peanuts are also a good source of magnesium. Here less is more. A slice of crusty bread with a teaspoon of peanut butter will do.
Colored Vegetable Chips – Healthy Snacks
No longer an insider tip, but still delicious: vegetable chips. Personal taste is paramount when choosing vegetables. This is my mix:
Ingredients:
1 small sweet potato
1 small beet
2 carrots
1 small parsnip
6 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
Pepper
also baking paper and kitchen paper
Preparation:
Cut the vegetables as thin as possible with a slicer. Mix the slices with a little salt and place on kitchen paper. Let air dry for 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees. First toss the vegetable slices with a little oil and pepper, depending on the variety, and then place them on the baking tray. And make sure nothing is on top of each other. It is hard work, but it is significant for a successful outcome.
The trays then go into the oven. Fries are cooked enough when they are lightly browned and the edges are raised. Many varieties are ready after 15 minutes. When you take the fries out of the oven, they should still be slightly soft.
They dry out as they cool.
If the fries aren’t quite done, bake them a bit longer. They are only durable when they no longer have moisture. Even then, you should eat them within a few days. carrot with sauce
Carrots
Carrots are rich in vitamin A and beta-carotene, which is good for your skin, metabolism, and eyes. Vegetables also contain many antioxidants that help prevent cancer, among other things. So if you satisfy your hunger with a few carrots and a light sauce, you’re doing something good for your health while curbing your cravings for chocolate and cake.
Cabbage Chips – Healthy Snacks
Green cabbage chips, or green cabbage chips in india, are all the rage right now. Not surprisingly, the green snack is low in calories and extremely healthy. Wait, kale chips? That doesn’t sound very appetizing. But once you’ve had a taste of healthy, crunchy chips, there’s the risk of addiction! Kale is also rich in iron, calcium, vitamins C and B, and antioxidants. Therefore, kale chips offer a healthy alternative to conventional potato chips.
