Every parent has days when they don’t feel like cooking at all. But they don’t want to feed their children junk foods either. Well, not every healthy recipe requires cooking. You can whip a variety of healthy no-cook snacks for your kids in no time. And these snacks are so nutritious and delicious that both kids and adults can enjoy them. Without further ado, let’s check out some healthy no-cook snacks for kids.

1. Chocolate chip granola bites
This is one of the healthiest and tastiest no-cook snacks that both kids and adults love. Another great thing about these granola bites is that they feature ingredients that you might already have in your kitchen: old-fashioned oats, honey, nut butter, chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (optional). To try this yummy snack, mix all ingredients well in a medium bowl. Then after covering the bowl with plastic wrap, refrigerate the mixture for an hour. Take it out and roll it into ping pong-size balls. Pack these balls in a tightly sealed container, and they’ll remain fresh for up to a week in your refrigerator.

2. Rainbow fruit skewers
If getting your kids to eat fruits has been challenging for you, try these rainbow fruit skewers. It’s a fun way to trick your kids into eating all the nutrient-packed fruits they need for optimal development. Just make sure to choose seven colorful fruits packed with various vitamins and minerals, such as strawberry, mango, kiwi, and grape. Then thread these fruits in a rainbow pattern onto seven wooden skewers.

3. Crunchy apple boats
Once your kids try this snack, they’ll always want apples to be served this way! Take an apple or two and slice it into half. Don’t forget to remove their core. Spread honey, peanut butter, or any other nut butter on the sliced top, and sprinkle some puffed rice or Rice Bubbles. Insert a toothpick into a thick, triangular slice of cheese and attach it to the sliced top. Your crunchy apple boat with a sail is ready!

4. Fruity frozen yogurt bites
Probably, there’s nothing more nourishing than a combination of yogurt and fruits. And these are the only two ingredients you need for this recipe. Choose nutrient-dense, colorful, and tasty fruits that your kids will love, such as raspberries, mango, pineapple, blueberries, and dice them. Then add two tablespoons of flavored yogurt to paper baking cups, and top each of them with different diced fruits. Now place the paper cups in muffin cups and freeze for about two hours or until firm. Remove paper cups before serving.

5. Nutella and banana sushi
Nutella is a family-favorite spread that goes with nearly every snack. And if your kids love it, this Nutella and banana sushi will become their new favorite. All you have to do is take a wholewheat wrap (or any other round wrap) and slather on Nutella all over it. Then place a banana on top and roll the wrap like sushi or a burrito. Slice the roll into about 2cm pieces and give them to your kids.
