Level up your snacking game with AI

How AI makes snack prep easier

AI for snack inspiration is perfect for busy lifestyles, as it eliminates the guesswork of thinking up new recipes by pulling from tried-and-true combinations that encourage variety.

Personalize your snacking experience to fit your own needs and your family’s. Using search and generative AI tools, provide AI prompts that specify your dietary preferences and/or the ingredients you have on hand. AI even factors in your hankerings—do you want something Mediterranean-inspired, a sweet treat, or a cheesy dip for cold weather? With these points in mind, ask AI for easy snack suggestions. Try prompts like these:

• What are some ingredient ideas for mini quesadillas?
• Give me 3-4 ideas for smoothies that use kale as its base ingredient.
• Are there trail mix recipes for people with allergies to cashews?
• Please recommend unique toppings to add to avocado toast.
• How do I scale up this basic French onion dip recipe to feed a football tailgate?

Find fun, healthy snack ideas with AI

If you have nutritional goals, it’s time to think beyond processed snacks. Opt for nutrient-loaded snacks that pack protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Consider crispy vegetables to satisfy that crunch and fruits to answer your sweet tooth.

Here are some healthy snacks and combinations to keep you feeling full throughout the day, especially in between meals:

Protein-packed snacks for fitness

Whether you’re looking to build muscle, lose belly fat, or simply feel fuller for longer, protein-packed snacks are instrumental in meeting your goals. Beef jerky, turkey slices, and hard-boiled eggs are some of the most common protein-rich snacks.

You don’t just have to be a carnivore, however. For example, many crispy vegetables pair well with Greek yogurt, which has twice the protein of regular yogurt. Protein bars made with granola, chocolate, or nuts provide a protein boost on the go. Ask AI, “What are the protein bars with the least amount of sugar?” to find your ideal snack.

Lastly, get creative by using AI to design your own trail mix combinations. Ask for creative, AI-powered trail mix recipes that combine different dried fruits and nuts—such as almonds and pistachios, which are high in protein—and take into account what you already have in your fridge.

Snacks that deliver the benefits of fiber

Not only is dietary fiber vital for maintaining a healthy weight, but it also supports digestive health, lowers bad cholesterol levels, and helps regulate blood sugar to keep your energy levels steady throughout the day. Ask AI for snack ideas made with high-fiber ingredients such as fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds, popcorn, and whole grains (such as wheat bread or brown rice).

Sweet or savory dip combos

What’s more fun than reaching dipping something crunchy into something delicious? Start with these fun and popular combinations. Then use AI to add a creative twist:

• Plantain chips and fresh guacamole: In chip form, plantains contain more fiber and less sodium than traditional potato chips. Avocados offer healthy fats that aid in lowering bad cholesterol. Ask AI, “How can I put a creative twist on my plantain chips and guacamole snack?”
• Apples and almond butter: Almond butter provides healthy fats and plant-based protein. Ask AI, “What apple varieties are in season?” or “Which apples are currently available in my zip code?”
• Celery and cucumber with hummus: These crunchy vegetables pair well with hummus, Ask AI for simple hummus recipes featuring roasted peppers, garlic, or your favorite toppings.
