3 nutrient-dense snacks you need in your house at all times

Absurd Snacks: it’s a no brainer. With 7g protein, 5g of dietary fiber, and only 2-3g of added sugar, Absurd Snacks takes the cake with getting the most out of an everyday snack. From taste, to ingredients, to being “reasonably carbed” too - with 23g of complex carbohydrates. What the heck is a complex carb you ask? Think of them as a steady stream of energy, crucial to keeping you going throughout the day. This is because complex carbs take longer for your body to digest, so you avoid blood sugar spikes and crashes associated with common simple carbohydrates like flours, sugars, pretzels, and bars. Our main ingredients, chickpeas and old fashioned rolled oats (gf!), make the top 6 list for best complex carbs, and they even pack a punch of plant-based protein, too. 

Epic Smoked Salmon Jerky: Fatty fish such as salmon are the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids and natural sources of vitamin D, which support brain and heart health. They also provide high-quality animal protein and ample vitamins and minerals, including a large amount of magnesium, potassium, selenium, and B vitamins! Add in some Rosemary Sea Salt Absurd Snacks for a savory, umami kick-of-a-snack.

Hard Boiled Eggs: We know that eggs are pretty expensive right now, but they are truly the quickest and easiest way to add a nutrient-dense food into your daily diet, from availability to ease of cooking. Eggs contain almost every vitamin except for vitamin C. Plus, eggs provide iron, iodine, calcium, copper, selenium, zinc, sodium, magnesium, and potassium. Lastly, eggs contain ALL NINE essential amino acids!
