Energy balls, very quick to make

The energy balls are the fastest option if we want a sweet snack. To do them you simply have to:

Healthy cupcakes and muffins

If we want something sweet, especially in the afternoon, we can prepare homemade muffins. The madeleine is much better than the cake to take away, because it doesn’t break as much and it’s already in its individual portion ready to transport. It is also easy to freeze.

Ideally, use whole grain flours, nut flours, and healthy, natural sweeteners such as dates, bananas, maple syrup, or stevia. Although we can also make them salty!

Fat bombs, the low carb option

Even if we eat a low carbohydrate diet, we can prepare energy balls or bars with nuts crushed, nut butter, coconut oil, cocoa and a low-carbohydrate sweetener such as stevia or erythritol.

Vegetable dips and pates

The dips or spreads are ideal for preparing in small glasses during batch cooking and thus have them ready to go. We can make hummus in its different forms, vegetable pates such as peppers, aubergines, mushrooms, carrots, beetroot or pumpkin, or pates based on tofu or nuts such as sunflower seeds, walnuts, cashews…

To prepare a vegetable pate, we can make the vegetables in the oven and mash with a little tofulegumes, tahini, nuts or yogurt with lemon juice and spices.

Once the pâté is ready, we divide it into individual glasses with lids and store them in the fridge to keep them close at hand. At the time of consumption, we accompany it with vegetable sticks or crackers.
