Healthy snack diet plan for vegans

• Fresh Fruits: Apples, bananas, and berries are great for quick energy and fiber.
• Raw Vegetables: Carrot sticks, cucumber slices, and bell pepper strips for a crunchy snack packed with vitamins.
• Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds for protein and healthy fats.
• Plant-Based Dips: Hummus, guacamole, and bean dips for a flavorful addition to veggies or whole grain crackers.
• Energy Balls: Made with dates, oats, and nut butter for a sweet and satisfying treat.

• Dairy Products: Cheese, yogurt, and milk, which are not suitable for a vegan diet.
• Honey: Often overlooked, but not vegan since it’s produced by bees.
• Gelatin: Found in many gummy snacks and marshmallows, derived from animal collagen.
• Processed Snacks with Animal Ingredients: Be cautious with some chips and crackers containing animal-derived flavors or fats.
• Non-Vegan Baked Goods: Many contain eggs or dairy; opt for vegan versions or make your own.

Stick to affordable proteins like beans, lentils, and eggs. Consider buying larger packs of chicken breasts or lean cuts of pork and portioning them out at home. Opt for canned fish like tuna or sardines, which are budget-friendly and versatile. Planning meals around sales can also help you save on meat and fish.

Prepare your own protein snacks like boiled eggs or homemade hummus instead of buying pre-packaged items, which are often more expensive.
