What are your favorite healthy snacks? (lemmy.world)

I saw my doctor recently and while talking about what a lazy fat-ass I am, he mentioned something about replacing the crap I usually snack on with healthier snacks like seasoned air-fried cauliflower or something like that. So what are your favorite healthy-ish snacks that can be made relatively quickly when I feel like shoving food in my face for no reason other than boredom and force of habit?

Deep-fried macaroni pie. It's a Scottish delicacy.

  • Take macaroni cheese
  • Encase it in a hot water pastry crust
  • Dip it in batter
  • Deep-fry it
  • Put it inside a well-buttered morning roll
  • Eat
  • Die happy. Soon, but happy.

Mmm, carbilicious action.

Where's the "healthy" part? Lmao, excuse me while i go make an ungodly amount of these.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

Ah, yes, well. The healthy bit comes straight after 'un'. It's possible I didn't read the question correctly.

You have the rare honour of being the first comment I've both downvoted and saved.

(Downvoted simply because it's the opposite kind of answer to what OP is looking for, if it actually bugs you let me know and I'll remove, nbd).

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago

I can take the downvotes when I deserve them, so I've upvoted you for using the downvote correctly!

I don't know what a hot water pastry crust is or a morning roll. Where I live we eat Southern biscuits for breakfast.
