Who says healthy snacking can't be fun? The quarantine got us doing all sorts of things - cooking, cleaning, binge-eating (yes, it's a thing). Our snack time considerably became more frequent, now that we were home all the time. And that's precisely why we adopted a slightly healthier alternative for these mid-meal treats. It doesn't always have to be fried and full of harmful preservatives. Here's a list of gluten-free snacks that are highly nutritious and didn't leave us feeling guilty when we overindulged in these.
