We\u2019ve got loads of amazing vegan recipes<\/a> for when you want anything from a special meal to an a quick supper but what about when you just fancy a vegan-friendly snack? Whether you\u2019re grabbing something on the go, are feeling a bit peckish or you\u2019re in the sort of mood where a nice snack is the only thing that will put a smile on your face, we\u2019ve got loads of amazing vegan snack ideas.<\/p>\n Luckily, many of the best traditional snacks are already vegan friendly. You don\u2019t normally rustle up a quick butternut squash risotto as a snack but nature has handily provided us with lots of great snack-sized goodies. As well as some obvious and \u201cautomatically\u201d vegan snacks, we\u2019ve got some ideas for more complex plant-based snacks too. By and large, these are pretty healthy, so fill your snack-craving little boots!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Loads of the healthiest vegan snacks are the ones that nature made for us. They tend to be amazingly convenient too, because if you\u2019re hungry and in a hurry, these are items that you can just grab, assuming you have them in the house of course. The National Health Service (NHS) suggests healthy snacks<\/a> should be around 100 calories and lots of these are under (or at least not too far over) that figure.<\/p>\n We don\u2019t think you have to stick rigidly to the 100 calorie mark though. As long as the calories are quality ones (see more about the British Nutrition Foundation Quality Calorie (QC) concept<\/a>), packed with nutrients, going to 200 or more calories is fine, especially within a balanced wider diet or when taking regular exercise. Here are some of our favourite healthy vegan snacks that require no, or virtually no, preparation.<\/p>\nHealthy Vegan Snacks<\/h2>\n
