Favourite snacks for the family

There are so many packaged snacks that are unhealthy and expensive. I try to keep on the healthy side as often as possible. Here are a few snacks that we like as a family.

string cheese with an apple
celery with peanut butter
almonds, cashews, peanuts
fresh tomato,onion, basil with olive oil and a little salt on top of Eziekial bread with feta cheese( my personal favourite)!
edamame
fruit
air blown popcorn with chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder and salt
pudding that I use old pudding cups from store bought (no one knows the difference, except me because it only costs $.30 a batch).
freeze the pudding and it becomes pudding pops
power peanut butter ( pumpkin seeds, plain yogurt, banana, raisins and honey) dip apples in this combo.
hummus on ricecakes
smoothies which consist of milk, plain yogurt, some type of fruit and honey for sweetener with ice cubes all blended together.
