Gluten FreeThese homemade gluten free snack recipes are not only easy to make, but they are naturally healthy and delicious! I’m no Martha Stewart, but I do love to save money by making homemade gluten free snacks!
It’s true. I’m no Martha, although I’d like to think I am at times. That is, until I am attempt to get “crafty” in other areas besides the kitchen. That just doesn’t work with me. Nope, not gifted there.
I’d say I’m crafty in the kitchen in two ways –> Thrifty and Resourceful. Or is that one thing? Haha. Basically, I want to save us money. I NEED to eat gluten free (and tasty), and I try to keep most of our snack foods healthy, like 80% of the time. That is until we get packages of candy and white chocolate from family abroad. That’s what I call a Kiwi Care package. Can’t say no to those!
But anyway, where was I? Oh yes, snacking. Gluten free snack recipes. Saving money. Yada Yada yada.
It’s easier than you think. And today, I’ll show you!
Here you will see my top 5 homemade gluten free snack recipes.
Let’s begin.
Snack 1- Have some ANTI-INFLAMMATORY tumeric ginger lemonade. Great for soothing and nourishing the body. Plus it’s a great “drink” to go with any snack or meal.
Snack 2 and 3 –> Homemade fruit chips and veggie chips.
Really, save yourself $10 and go ahead and try making these in your oven or dehydrator. I promise they are easy to make and super tasty!
Heck, you can even make these homemade fruit snacks low sugar and use coconut oil! SO SO GOOD!
Snack 4: Thou shall not waste! You heard me. Do not throw away stale rice. Recycle it! Use it to make rice balls. These are great gluten free snacks for active kids or athletes. Hello good carbs and natural sugars!
And last but not least Snack 5: Make your gut happy with a homemade gluten free snack recipe for REAL GELATIN JELLO
Did you know that you can make real gelatin with kombucha, grass fed gelatin, and vitamin C? Um, ya! It’s amazing! And kids will do a JELLO dance because it actually tastes good and is good for them. Good for adults too, but I guess we need to learn how to share, right?
Well… anyone have the munchies yet? If so, let’s get snackin on these homemade gluten free snack recipes!

April 3, 2015 at 6:09 AMI’m sending this post to my sister! She lives in NYC and is gluten free – a busy busy gal who wants to start making her own snacks rather than buying them all the time – great timing! 🙂
