Weekend Snacks

This really isn't a recipe entry, but rather a way to make an entire meal, getting all your food groups in, from snacks, that don't include animal products.

Baked potato chips! They have a lot less fat, taste great...and are vegan...also counts as a starch!

Chips and Salsa! Again vegan, and salsa, if home-made especially, is a healthy serving of veggies.

Veggies of all kinds, baby carrots, sliced peppers, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. All are great sliced, and raw veggies are best for nutrition. Instead of the non-vegan "ranch" dip (loaded with fat by the way) try a bottle of honey-mustard dressing as dip! It's awesome!

Oh nuts - all kinds of nuts. Great source of protein without eating dead muscle.

Breads...many breads are vegan, and I just love bread!

Fruits...cut up melon, serve berries, cherries, all you can. Many melons and berries are great anti-oxidants and water melon is a natural diuretic...for those of you who tend to hold water.

So there you go...stock up on healthy vegan snack...people LOVE them, and don't even realize they're "going vegan"!
