Welcome!
I'm Snack Girl and my website is devoted to becoming healthier. I create recipes, review food products, and support those on a healthy journey.

Low calorie cereal is easy to make. I know you want to buy it - but it tastes much better to make it.
I know that there are people out there who will take on look at this recipe and decide it isn’t low calorie. But, I would argue that it isn’t good enough to be simply low calorie -you can do that with Rice Krispies - you also need nutrition that gets you off on the right foot for your day.
These easy refrigerator pickles should live in your fridge. Bored with the same old food – add pickles!
I make these pickles for my husband who then devours them and attempts to drink the pickle juice (which has become a thing).
These chicken breast recipes will inspire you. How do I know?
Because, I use them all of the time for my family and no one complains about hockey puck chicken breasts.
My husband is a devoted hater of chicken breasts and yet he eats these recipes and likes them! It is possible to cook this leanest of meats without skin and get excellent results.
These fresh strawberry recipes will inspire you to buy pounds and pounds of fresh strawberries.
The easiest fresh strawberry dish is – wash and eat! (I guess that isn’t really a recipe).
Desserts with strawberries will be instantly healthier than your regular chocolate cakes or crème brulees because you are using fruit. Fruit is naturally low in calories, low in sugar, and higher in fiber than almost any dessert item that I can think of.
These fresh asparagus recipes will help shape your cooking for the next month. When I walked into my local grocery store, there was a wall of asparagus greeting me.
I said, “Hello, asparagus!”
It did not reply.
This healthy shakshuka recipe is for those who have never even heard of shakshuka.
I hadn’t heard of it either until I encountered it on a brunch menu in Mexico (over a year ago). What is this mysterious “shakshuka”? I did know I was going to like it because it has tomatoes and eggs (a great combo).
These gluten free peanut butter cookies can be made with ingredients in your pantry. Nothing fancy here!
I have literally a ton of peanut butter. Peanut butter is one of those foods that my family cannot go without and it is incredibly nutritious.
There is nothing fried about instant pot refried beans - but it sure tastes like heavy, luxurious food.
This is one of those magical recipes that sounds like it would be really high in calories but isn’t! You don’t need lard to make these beans into something special but an Instant Pot will help.
