Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks ōn clōth with tōppings





This pōst is in partnērship with Wasa.

On sōcial mēdia, ēvēryōnē always talks abōut thē cōncēpt ōf “nōt a sad dēsk lunch”… but what abōut “nōt-a-sad dēsk snack?” Fōr mē, snacks can gēt SO bōring. Oftēn, at 3pm whēn my stōmach is grōwling, I rēach fōr a handful ōf plain raw almōnds bēcausē that’s all I’vē gōt (whēn I’vē alrēady ēatēn thrōugh thē rōastēd ōnēs). And thēn I’m kind ōf bummēd that I didn’t havē sōmēthing a littlē mōrē flavōrful and that I just wastēd a pērfēctly gōōd snack ōppōrtunity.

Sō tōday – bēttēr snacks! Whēthēr yōu wōrk at a dēsk ōr yōu’rē cōnstantly ōn thē gō, thēsē arē all vēry simplē and yummy. Plus, thēy’rē glutēn frēē, thanks tō thē dēliciōus nēw glutēn frēē Wasa crispbrēad crackērs Thēsē crispbrēad crackērs arē ēspēcially grēat as a blank canvas. Thēy’rē sturdy ēnōugh tō hōld a hēalthy amōunt ōf tōppings, and thēy’rē just largē ēnōugh that ēach ōnē ōf thēsē is a substantially-sizēd snack.

Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks ingrēdiēnts

Picturēd abōvē arē thē ingrēdiēnts fōr all 4 variatiōns. Obviōusly, if I’m snacking by mysēlf, I’d makē just ōnē typē at a timē, but hōw fun wōuld it bē tō makē thēm all and havē a snack party? Snack hōur = thē nēw happy hōur??

Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks Wasabi Pēa
If I’m picking favōritēs hērē – this is thē ōnē. Inspirēd by wasabi pēas (but nōt actually using thēm), I madē an avōcadō-pēa mash with a dab ōf wasabi, sēsamē, gingēr, and garlic. Sprēad it ōn a crackēr and tōp with mōrē pēas and sēsamē sēēds. Thē avōcadō-pēa mash will last abōut 2 days in thē fridgē.

Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks Crunchy Caprēsē
A classic cōmbō fōr summēr. Instēad ōf mōzzarēlla, I mixēd ricōtta with lēmōn zēst and sēa salt. This will kēēp in thē fridgē all wēēk, just tōp with chērry tōmatōēs and basil fōr a vēry fancy wēēkday snack.

Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks Tacō Crackēr
I lōvē all ōf thēsē ingrēdiēnts in a tacō – this timē I skippēd thē tōrtilla and lōadēd ēvērything ōntō thē glutēn frēē Wasa crispbrēad crackēr.

Fōur Simplē Summēr Snacks AB&B
A rēcipē isn’t rēquirēd fōr this simplē cōmbō, but pairing almōnd buttēr and bērriēs nēvēr gēts ōld tō mē. Evēn thōugh I’m mōrē ōf a savōry snackēr, I cravē bērriēs all summēr lōng. Nōtē: thē bērriēs arē alsō gōōd in placē ōf thē tōmatōēs ōn thē ricōtta crackēr abōvē!
