Snacking on the right foods is an excellent way to keep your blood sugars balanced during a busy day, and will help to reduce sugar cravings. By opting for a nutrient-dense snack, rather than one loaded with sugar, will provide a slower release of energy, briefly satisfy hunger and will provide more vitamins and minerals that benefit health, rather than just calories.

If you want to find more low-calorie recipes, check out our guide. We've also got more healthy sweet snacks and low-carb snacks to try. If your energy levels are flagging, then check out our list of high energy foods for that extra boost.
