Snacks

– I didn’t snack very much, but when I did it was usually fruit, nuts, baby carrots with baba ganoush, or a Larabar in the mid afternoon. I usually eat lunch pretty early, around 11:30, so something in the afternoon is needed to tide me over. – As far as staples, I have been using a lot of canned coconut milk. I always drink sparkling water instead of soda, but it’s worth mentioning because it’s Whole30 approved. I buy the HEB brand, but LaCroix is also great. Eggs are definitely a staple. I also made a baba ganoush mentioned above and it was super yummy (instead of cumin I used paprika, and added a little bit more garlic and lemon juice than the recipe suggests).
