Don’t you want some salt? Salty snacks can satisfy your appetite, but some don’t contain healthy ingredients. Here’s a list of 11 healthy, salty snacks to satisfy your salty tooth.
1. Salted Nuts
The best thing about nuts is their variety. Whether you crave sweet macadamia nuts or dry walnuts, nuts can satisfy any craving. Adding salt to an already flavorful snack adds flavor and makes for an easy seasoning.
2. Edamame
Edamame are amazing. This bean is healthy and contains several health benefits such as high protein levels, fiber and fatty acids that reduce the risk of heart disease and lower cholesterol.
Edamame can be purchased frozen or fresh at restaurants and grocery stores. Peapods are easy to make and easy to eat. Just sprinkle salt on the shell and enjoy the superfood.
3. Olive
Olive fans have an equal amount of dislikes, but this salty snack offers plenty of health benefits along with a satisfying dose of salt. Olives contain high amounts of vitamin E, which helps with vision and blood health. In addition, olives are excellent antioxidants.
4. Avocado
The best thing about avocados is the endless availability of the fruit. Chop it for guacamole, slice it, put it on toast, and eat it that way. No matter how you consume your superfood, avocados promote heart health and are packed with vitamins like vitamins E, C, and K.
5. Popcorn
It’s not movie popcorn. No, we’re talking straight to the core, the kind of popcorn that pops on the stove. All you need to make healthy popcorn is a bag of kernels and your favorite seasonings. In this case, break the kernels and sprinkle salt over the flakes.
Popcorn does wonders for your digestive system and helps you feel less hungry.
6. Seeds
Seeds are also a staple in the salty snack catalogue. The best salty seed snacks are pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. You can buy a bag of unsalted seeds and add salt to the mixture, or you can invest in a bag of pre-salted tasty seeds. The only thing to watch out for with pre-salted seeds is the added ingredients.
7. Roasted chickpeas
Roasted chickpeas serve as an appetizer or snack. And it’s easy to make! All you need is a can of chickpeas and your favorite seasonings. Drain the chickpeas, season and bake. Once browned and crispy, remove the chickpeas and enjoy a delicious treat.
8. Pita chips
This is not a greasy, oversalted potato chip. Many brands offer baked pita chips in a variety of flavors. It’s crunchy, flavorful, and has just the right amount of saltiness to satisfy.
9. Hummus
Hummus has a bad reputation. I don’t know why. This snack is best paired with the aforementioned pita chips and vegetables. If you want to add a punch of flavor, add it to your sandwich and enjoy.
10. Goat cheese
Be sure to try our delicious goat cheese, which is light and refreshing, with a balance of sweetness and savouriness. If you don’t feel comfortable trying it, choose the type with nuts or cranberries in it. Whether you eat it plain or spread it on a bagel, you’ll love this savory snack.
11. Sardines
Please don’t pick us up. Sardines may be a little familiar to those who don’t like fish, but seafood lovers will enjoy this salty taste packed with essential minerals.
