To get the most out of your fruit and veg snacks:
Plate it beautifully
It’s true that we eat with our eyes. Presenting fruit and veg (even when instagram isn’t watching) will amp up its deliciousness. This is especially helpful when you’re a plant based or healthy eating freshie, fighting cravings of super salty, super sweet foods.
Add a protein packed dip
A protein rich dip will make your snack more filling. Hummus, avocado and pesto dips are great with veg, and peanut butter or cashew cream is delicious with crisp fruits such as apple and pear. Alternatively, adding a small handful of nuts can be a great alternative
