We’d like to start this piece off by saying that there’s nothing wrong with eating snacks. Heck, there’s nothing wrong with eating snacks that aren’t particularly healthy—some of the time. No, but seriously, there’s an emotionally healthy time and place for us to get our munch on with snacks that aren’t nutritionally healthy. The trick is knowing when those times are, and when we’re abusing the system. Here’s how to do that.

Ask Yourself Why

As you sit there munching on some tasty potato chips, or biting into an ice cream sandwich, ask yourself why you’re eating it. If you’re eating because you’ve had a long day and eaten healthy for most of it, and feel like you’ve earned a little break—then that’s totally fine.

But if you’re eating that box of candy because you just finished eating a different box of candy and wanted to prove to yourself that you have a hot streak in you, then maybe it’s not the best time.

Recognizing The Binge

It’s really all about moderation. Most of the tastiest snacks are designed to be addicting, so you shouldn’t persecute yourself for wanting more of it. But inner strength comes from being able to step back and moderate your intake of these sweets. You got this!

Hummus is one of the most popular healthy snacks on the planet right now. This chickpea-based dip is perfect for eating with sliced vegetables, and the possibilities are truly endless for the flavor combinations that you can come up with.

Here are some vegetables that are absolutely fantastic for dipping into hummus.

Cucumber

Cucumber is probably my favorite vegetable for slicing and dipping into hummus. We recommend keeping the skin on, giving the cucumber a vitamin boost, and allowing its relatively neutral flavor to allow the hummus to shine.

Tomato

Many people don’t consider tomato as an option for dipping into hummus, but the truth is that it is a fantastic choice. Be sure to choose a hearty variety of tomato that will stand up to being dipped into hummus.

Carrots

Perhaps the most popular vegetable for hummus dipping is the humble carrot. You can use either baby carrots or regular carrots that have been sliced into smaller pieces that are the perfect accompaniment to a plate of hummus. Yum!
