Hello Angels,

Fall is perfect time for family and friends gathering at home. You can prepare delicious healthy snack tray for your loved ones. I adapted healthy lifestyle for years and I love to prepare  healthy snack tray  for the people I care.

My snack tray is gluten gree because I have a gluten allergy.

In today’s post, I would like to share tips and tricks on how to make the delicious, healthy cheese board.

Tips

  • Presentation

Anyone can throw some crackers, cheese and vegetables on a plate and call it a snack tray. But who doesn’t prefer something good looking? I follow  pages on Instagram who creates a fantastic healthy trays and love it so much.

Some people think healthy snacks taste bad and they don’t even try it. A nice healthy tray can be convincing for them.

  • Choose a tray

Choose a tray that will showcase the creating. It can be rectangular or round.

Pick the seasonal fruits and vegetables

Fruits and vegetables have a lot of nutritional benefits. They are delicious and perfect to add some color into your tray.

  • Pick the cheeses

Opt three or four in different textures; creamy, firm, crumbly and aged cheeses. Healthy Cheese Options are;

 – Ricotta

One of the lowest fat and healthiest cheese.

 – Parmesan

It has highest protein content.

 – Swiss Cheese

It has also high protein content.

  • Choose two dips

Dips go perfect with the vegetables and cheeses. Instead of buying store bought dips, make at home. There is the only way can be sure of the ingredients. Healthy dip ideas are;

 – Guacamole

It is easy and avocados are rich in vitamins and healthy fats.

 – Humus

Humus is very nutritions and delicious. There are ingredients such as tahini, chickpeas and lemon. These ingredients are full of vitamin.

 – Basil Pesto

I love basil pesto so much. It is super easy to prepare. You need a basil, grated parmesan, olive oil and garlic.

  • Nuts

Nuts including walnuts, cashew and pistacchios are very healthy. Nuts are perfect to add snack tray for an crunchy texture.

  • Gluten Free Crackers

Making crackers at home is very easy. You can use chickpea flour or lentil flour for crackers.
