Snack Time! My Favourite Go-To Snacks

It’s great to be here today with the lovely ladies from the Share Our Lives link-up. This time, we’re chatting all about our go-to snacks. Thanks so much for stopping by 😊

Now, let’s see… what are some of my go-to snacks? Well, to be honest, I don’t really snack a whole lot during the week. I’m not sure if anyone else is like this, but I actually love feeling properly hungry before my main meals. It makes them feel like a real event!

I look forward to lunch and dinner (not breakfast—I’m never hungry first thing in the morning). And I love that when I finally sit down to eat, it feels like a major occasion. I even try really hard not to moan after every bite, because that would just sound too weird, right?

Snack Time

Although I don’t usually snack during the week, that all changes when Friday night rolls around. Because that’s when snack time is on like Donkey Kong!

Here are some of my go-to savoury snacks:

Nuts – I love all nuts, but these Kri Kri peanuts from our local fruit shop are just so delicious.

Chips – Salt and vinegar or plain are my favourites.

Cheese – with or without crackers.

Corn Thins – When I feel like I need to pretend that they are a healthier option. Are they? No, don’t tell me.

Seaweed – So deliciously salty and crunchy. Until two years ago, I avoided seaweed because it’s high in iodine and I had thyroid issues. Now that I don’t have a thyroid, I’m making up for all the times I had to say no to seaweed.

My go-to sweet snacks:

Cadbury Hazelnut chocolate – this one is dangerous because I buy the block and it’s so hard to stop at just a few squares.

Snake lollies – The green ones are my favourite, but I also love the orange ones because they remind me of the lollies I used to get as a super special, once-every-few-months treat when I was little.

Peanut M&Ms – Nuts all the way!

Cadbury Flake – crumbly and yummy

Picnic bars – I clearly just can’t get enough nuts.

Now, I know I said I don’t snack much during the week, but when my work buddy is rostered on for a casual day, she usually brings me some kind of delicious treat. She’s introduced me to some of the best snacks ever, and every time she’s called in to work, I just know it’s going to be a fun day. And no, it’s not just because she’s my snack supplier… haha!

My healthy snacks:

Plain yoghurt with honey and berries

Fruit – Usually grapes when they are in season. At the moment, I’m enjoying the small mandarins I buy from Woolworths. They remind me of the ones I saw on our trip to the U.S, called Cuties.

So there you have it, my go-to snacks. I sure do look forward to Friday nights and the weekend when it’s open season on snacks. What about you? Are you more of a weekday grazer or a weekend snacker?
