Satisfying Crunchy Snacks

To keep with my new theme of quick, easy, nourishing meals, I couldn’t skip this month’s Recipe Redux theme to share a crunchy snack! While the crunchy toast below is hardly a recipe, I thought sharing my favorite crunchy portable convenience foods is a helpful way to kick off back to school (and for some back to work).

The “recipe” itself is perfect as an after school snack for kids, dorm room snack for college athletes, or anytime snack for anyone else!
