While I love all things wellness, I unabashedly admit that I'm not the best cook in the world. I'm constantly experimenting, and I'm fortunate to have a partner with a good palette. Usually around 2 or 3pm, my hunger flares up a bit and I'm searching for a healthy snack to satisfy my craving. Below is a quick snack that provides a healthy energy boost, and keeps me full for hours.
