Store-bought fruit snacks can include processed sugar — sometimes more sugar than fruit! Making your own fruit leather at home is not only healthier, but it’s also lots of fun!

Options for creating fun fruit snacks are endless, from pineapple mango to apple kiwi to berry banana. Use the recipe below as a guide for all of your fruit leather creations to come!

Chickpeas are so versatile — add them to soups, create chickpea salad, or make them into a crispy snack or crouton! Changing their texture from soft to crunchy can elevate your chickpea experience, making you fall in love with chickpeas in a brand new way!

As you know, mushrooms are perishable. One fun way to preserve them is through dehydration using your dehydrator or oven. Dehydrated Mushroom Bacon is delicious in sandwiches, on top of salads or as a flavorful and nutritious snack!

Even if you’re not a fan of winter, these edible, naturally sweet snowballs are something you’ll most likely enjoy making and then eating as a mid-afternoon snack or after-dinner treat. Because coconut is reminiscent of snowflakes, these bite-sized snacks also create a sense of cheer as a display on your kitchen table. Cranberries are chock-full of vitamin C and fiber while coconut is packed with manganese, copper, and even more fiber!

Lentils are packed with plant-based protein, loaded with fiber, and filled with lots of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. Plus, they don’t require soaking before cooking. Combine them with garlic and herbs to make a delicious side to a plant-based meal, a tasty addition to green salads, a fun topping on whole grain bread, or a satisfying snack all by themselves.

Spice up your dinner party with this tasty pop-in-your-mouth appetizer. Cashews serve as the base for cream cheese, and chickpeas pose as a crunchy breadcrumb topping in this dish. Be forewarned, Jalapeño Poppers may be what turns your friends and family on to plant-based eating!

This classic dish gets a healthy facelift by omitting the butter, oil, and other less than desirable ingredients and keeping the fiber (green beans and almonds) and adding lots of aromatics (shallots and garlic) and a little crunchy sweetness (again, almonds!). Bon appetit!
