Apple slices with peanut butter

Apples and peanut butter taste perfect together. Apples are high in fibre and polyphenol antioxidants which improves. While on the other hand, peanut butter is fairly high in calories. A medium apple with 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of natural peanut butter provides a nice balance of sweet flavour with crisp and creamy textures at under 200 calories.

Popcorn

By popcorn, we mean the ones that can be made at home and not the ones that are available in the movie theatre. Popcorn is high in fibre. Popcorn is a whole grain. The three cups of Popcorn is a huge serving in compare to other crunchy, salty snacks like chips. Another key to ensuring Popcorn’s nutritional value is you can add flavour it with cumin, cinnamon or any other herbs.

Khakhra

Khakras is one of the best healthy food to munch on. You can avoid those buttery khakras and opt for baked, non-oily and wheat khakhras. Not only khakhras will keep you full for longer but along with that, they are also not heavy for the stomach.
