These homemade snap pea crisps are super simple to make in a dehydrator. They’re seasoned with spices and nutritional yeast for a tasty healthy snack that rivals the store bought kind.

I’ve been quite “snacky” lately.

Literally, I could just sit and graze on small bites pretty much all day long and never eat a full meal.

I don’t really know what’s going on but it’s one of those times I kinda wish I worked outside of the house so that wasn’t even a possibility.

But, when you spend 90% of your waking hours either in your kitchen or on the couch, 5 steps from the kitchen, snacking all day IS a possibility.

A dangerous one.

For as much healthy stuff as there is in my house to eat, I seem to always find that bag of chocolate chips, coconut crusted cashews (<–heyyyy, Trader Joes obsession) or, that bag of marshmallows that’s supposed to be for fire pit s’mores on the patio. Oops.

I justify this daytime snack by calling it workout “fuel” since I’m usually headed to the gym right after the pantry debauchery goes down.

When I get home from the gym and it’s time to prep dinner, I’m usually better about things.

I grab a container of Sabra hummus (I love the singles for built in portion control!), scrounge around in the vegetable drawer for a carrot or celery and promptly commence with the #UnofficialMeal (<– Sabra’s fancy phrase for the pre-dinner snack we all know and do so well).

Sick of the usual baby carrots and boring celery though, I decided to steal Brandy’s dehydrator (I swear I use the thing more than her, case in point – eggplant chips, buffalo sauce beef jerky and lamb jerky and might just keep it this time) and dehydrated the hell out of some snap peas.

I figured if they could sell these as a packaged snack these days, I could easily make them, right?

And hey, guess what? They’re pretty freakin’ delicious.

You know what you don’t feel bad about eating 1.5 pounds of before dinner?

Snap peas.

Can’t say that about chocolate, cashews and marshmallows can you?

The possibilities with these homemade snap pea crisps are endless when it comes to seasonings but I went with a spicy, “cheesy” approach.

There’s the savory garlic and onion powder undertone with some chili powder and cayenne for spice and a good dose of nutritional yeast for that cheesy flavor that’s not really cheese.

Nutritional yeast keeps these vegan friendly but grated parmesan would be an awesome choice too if you want real cheese flavor.

Try dipping them in this vegan spinach artichoke dip too for another great vegan option!

I’ve pretty much given up hope for the afternoon snack staying on the healthy side but I’m down to make the pre-dinner one a bit more nutritious with these snap pea crisps and some hummus!
