If you have a deep fat fryer ...and don't object to fried foods...deep fried tempura vegetables make a lovely snack with aubergine, sun dried tomato or humus dips. Even deep fried bread fingers spread with marmite or vegemite dipped in beaten egg and dipped in sesame seeds are good. Tewesday

Hi

 

When going vegan I stopped having cravings by making sure I had a complete

protein snack. So with the larabars perhaps eat some snap peas (they come

already washed and ready at Trader Joe's). Hope it helps, it helped me a lot!

If you are not allergic to soy, TJs and other grocery stores also have edamame

which are the baby soy beans - shelled or not - a good protein source.

 

home made roasted Garbanzo beans (cece or chickpeas are the same)  also make a

great snack such as this one - using pan spray lightly rather than the oil to

make the spices adhere to the beans

 

Crispy Roasted Chickpeas with Moroccan Spices

 

 

 

(Inspired by a recipe from The South Beach Diet Cookbook and the Moroccan Spice

Mix from Fine Cooking Magazine.)

 

1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)

1 T olive oil  ( I used pan spray)

1/4 - 1/2 tsp. Moroccan Spice Mix

salt to taste (I used about 1/4 tsp. kosher salt)

 

Spice Mix:

2 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. ground coriander

1/2 tsp. chile powder (I used Ancho chile powder from Penzeys)

1/2 tsp. sweet paprika

1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp. ground allspice

1/4 tsp. ground ginger

1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper

a pinch ground cloves

 

Preheat

oven to 350 F.

 

Drain garbanzo beans into a colander and rinse

well with cold water until no more foam appears. Let beans drain for

5-10 minutes, then pat dry with a cloth of paper towel if they still

look wet.

 

While beans drain, make spice mix. (This is great on many veggies, so make the

full amount and store in a glass jar.)

 

When

beans are well drained and dried, toss with olive oil, spice mix, and

salt. Arrange in single layer on baking sheet. Roast 40-50 minutes, or

until they are slightly browned and make a rattling sound when you

shake the baking sheet. (I roasted these for 50 minutes, but next time

I would take them out a tiny bit sooner.) Serve warm or let cool.

 

lots of spice blends can be used such as those from Mrs Dash
