Hey everyone,

You're at home more these days, and there's a good chance the kids will be doing at least a portion of their schooling at home, at least for the time being.

That means there are more people rifling through the fridge and pantry looking for snacks throughout the day, yourself included.

People have been writing in asking about healthy snacks that don't take much effort. So, I thought I'd throw together a list of go-to snacks that don't require much preparation, if any. 

1. Hard boiled eggs. I like to make a half dozen or a dozen at the beginning of the week, then my wife Carrie and I can grab one whenever we feel like it. Boil for 7 minutes for soft, 10 minutes for hard-cooked. 

2. Guacamole. Sure, there's some amount of prep involved, but a batch will last a few days. I like this recipe because there's bacon in it. 

3. Chocolate Primal Fuel Shake. I'm digging Primal Fuel as a snack because it's satisfying, it tastes like a dessert, and you don't need a blender to mix it. Right now, you can get a FREE Chocolate Primal Fuel when you purchase one. 

4. Olives. Olives contain healthy fat to keep you feeling full. 

5. Tuna salad. You can mix up a big batch of tuna mixed with mayo (here's my favorite) and chopped vegetables to snack on all week with almond flour crackers or cucumbers.

6. Artisana Coconut Butter. Technically, it's a spread, but I eat it with a spoon. The fewer steps, the better. 

7. Macadamia nuts. I almost always have a stash of macadamias with me when I'm out.  

Primal Fuel Whey Protein Bars

Here's an easy breakfast or snack to make on Monday and grab all week. 

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup coconut cream/coconut butter (200 g)
• 1 cup (116 g) raw, unsalted macadamia nuts (or 1/2 cup macadamia butter)
• 1/4 cup maple syrup (60 ml)
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda (2.5 ml)
• 1/4 cup Chocolate Coconut Primal Fuel (28 grams)
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 tsp. kosher salt (2.5 ml)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 °F/177 °C.

In a food processor, blend the macadamia nuts for several minutes until a smooth, thick paste or “butter” forms.

In a medium bowl, whisk together room temperature coconut butter, macadamia butter, maple syrup, baking soda, Chocolate Coconut Primal Fuel, eggs and salt.

Pour the batter into an oiled 8″x8″ baking dish. Bake 20 minutes until the batter is set and has puffed up a bit. Let cool before cutting.
