I make my Jalapeño Pimento Cheese and Classic Pimento Cheese all the time!
For easy snack prep, I like to make a big batch and portion it into little jars. This way when snack time hits I can grab a jar and a bag of sliced celery sticks (prep in advance for easy snacking) along with some gluten-free sea salt Nut Thins crackers snack at my desk while working.
These speedy marinated mushrooms are the best! They’re super easy to make homemade instead of buying them at the store and are a great little low-carb snack to enjoy any time of day.
LOVE this Chipotle restaurant copycat recipe! It can be served with tortilla chips as a tasty salsa or as a topping for all your “taco night” favorites. It’s quick, easy, and oh so delicious!
These feta dip stuffed phyllo cups have it all! The crisp phyllo shell has the most glorious crunch while the feta dip is fresh, creamy, and salty. It’s the most glorious bite-sized snack and the feta dip filling can be made in advance for all your snacking needs.
Edamame are hands-down one of my favorite finger foods! When plain salted edamame just won’t do, try this sweet and slightly spicy sweet chili edamame recipe for your next snack sesh.
Pico de Gallo is practically a food group around here! Paul and I make a big batch nearly every week and use it to top tacos and burrito bowls and also for snacking with tortilla chips. I love how it tastes even better the next day!
Trying to get your kiddos to eat more veggies? Skip the bagel bites and try these Bell Pepper Pizza bites as a tasty after school snack! They’re a hit with kids and adults alike and make a great grain-free way to get your pizza fix in a snacky hand-held package.
This avocado salsa verde dip is deeeeelish and ready in record time. You can have the whole thing ready to go in 10 minutes and it’s so addictive with tortilla chips or strips!
Hummus stuffed sweet mini peppers are a fantastic snack and so easy to customize! Use your favorite hummus (I love using leftover chipotle hummus or jalapeño hummus) and add all the toppings your heart desires!
Another fun combo is to use my taco hummus and sprinkle them with pico de gallo or salsa. Delish!
This goat cheese spread always gets RAVE reviews from friends, family, and readers alike! It’s a breeze to throw together and requires minimal ingredients that deliver tons of flavor! Spread it on buttery crackers or try it on fresh apple slices.
My love for this spicy jalapeño dip knows no bounds. It’s easy to make, keeps for days in the fridge like a champ, and is so fiery and flavorful you’ll keep coming back for more! The dip was first introduced to me by a co-worker over 15 years ago and I’ve been making it ever since!
