Healthy Vegan Snack Inspiration
Snacks can be an important part of the day, plus a huge part of your diet. Even though snacking has developed somewhat of a "bad image," they can provide energy in the middle of the day, or when you exercise. A healthy snack between meals can also decrease your hunger and keep you from overeating at meal time.

Fruits and vegetables
Legumes such as peas, beans and lentils
Nuts and seeds
Breads, rice and pasta
Dairy alternatives such as soy, coconut and almond milk
Nut butter and vegan cheese
