2 Easy Recipes

Ever felt a need for a super yummy yet filling snack? I’ve got the solution for you! I, myself, enjoy eating quite a bit. So, I have decided to create some delicious and somewhat healthy recipes. Hopefully, you’ll try them out when you feel like having a mid-day snack.


 

The Yogurt Snack Bowl:

Food

Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup of Yogurt (Flavour of your choice)
  • 1 Banana (sliced)
  • A handful of cereal or anything crunchy, like nuts
  • A handful of dried fruits ( I used dried mulberries)

Directions:

  1. Place the yogurt into a bowl.
  2. Place sliced bananas on top.
  3. Sprinkle on the cereal/nuts and dried fruit(s).

This recipe is great for anyone with a sweet tooth. It satisfies the sugar craving and tastes amazing. You can definitely switch up the ingredients. If you don’t like cereal or nuts, you can try adding granola or anything else that floats your boat. The options are endless. It is also very quick to make. It is great for those days when you don’t have too much time.Try it out!


The Sandwich Bagel:

Food 2

Ingredients:

  • A handful of diced tomatoes
  • A slice of cheese
  • A slice of choice of meat
  • Half of a bagel
  • Other toppings (lettuce, onions, olives, etc…)

Directions:

  1. Place choice of meat onto bagel.
  2. Place cheese on top of bagel.
  3. Place into microwave for a 15 seconds to melt cheese.
  4. Top off with some diced tomatoes and/or other toppings.

This recipe is perfect for those who enjoy savoury snacks. Having only half of a bagel is a good amount to consume as a snack so that it won’t ruin your appetite for other meals. You can make this healthier by adding more vegetables to it. If you don’t want meat on it, you can substitute it with other ingredients. You can also add sauces to it. Tweak it to your liking.

 

Try it, tweak it, taste it!
