AIP Work from Home Snacks

When you’re sticking to the more restrictive elimination phase of the AIP, snack time can sometimes feel like a challenge…especially if you are working from home. So today I’m sharing with you my favorite AIP Work from Home Snacks to keep the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol easy and to keep you on track right now!

I know personally that if I don’t remind myself of the variety I am actually allowed to enjoy on this diet, that I may end up just eating plantain chips 3 times a day in between meals – and then getting really bored with them quickly.

Since this is one of those challenges that can make you feel like quitting the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol before you’ve completed the minimum 30 days, I wanted to give you my top pointers for making AIP snack time more enjoyable, flavorful, and easy!

These are delicious, simple to make, and help to keep you going throughout the day with a mental and physical energy boost (something we all need to get those multiple tasks done throughout the day while staying productive at home).

Say bye to the hangries and hello to productivity with these 10 tasty AIP Work from Home Snacks:

1) A whole avocado

Full of healthy fats and fiber to keep you satiated. Simply slice in half, pop out the seed, and sprinkle with sea salt and a squeeze of lime.

Devour with a spoon!

2) Bowl of berries & coconut manna

Fiber-rich strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries are rich in protective antioxidants. A scoop of coconut manna/butter over the top lends healthy fat and more fulfilling fiber as well.

3) AIP Trail Mix Bark 

My newest recipe from the blog truly hits the snack-spot! Laden with filling tigernuts, coconut, gelatin (for protein), and dried fruit, this bark will keep you going when your energy takes a dip. 

4) Wild Zora Meat & Veggie Bars

I’ve heard so many people say that they don’t like lamb, but that they love Wild Zora’s Lamb Bars (I totes agree – they are delicious!). I love that these snack size packs are loaded with hidden veggies, too.

Nutrient density win!

5) Zucchini-cucumber salad

Super fast! Add 1 thinly sliced zucchini with 1 thinly sliced cucumber to a food storage container. Drizzle in a bit of olive oil and vinegar, then a sprinkling of sea salt and garlic powder.

The perfect quick salad for when you’re a little tired of lettuce but still want something fresh and raw.

6) Homemade sausage patties

On a budget? This frugal Maple Breakfast Sausage recipe packs a protein punch!

In a pinch you could even press the mixture down into a baking dish, pop it in the oven at 400 F, and bake for about 30 minutes (or until cooked through) for your own homemade meat bars.

They freeze really well too so you can reheat them individually if needed.

7) Banana tigernut butter bowl

I love to peel a banana, pop it in a bowl then top it with a scoop of tigernut butter. A sprinkle of sea salt and cinnamon on top…so much yum!

8) Can of salmon and celery sticks

You could simply eat the salmon right out of the can (just make sure it’s wild caught and BPA-free) with the celery on the side, or stir the salmon in a bowl with 2 Tbsp of this yummy Ginger Dressing from the blog archives, then spread the dressed salmon along the celery sticks.

9) My nut-free, dairy-free AIP Pesto and veggies

This yummy green dip is so wonderful with mixed raw veggies dipped in it – try radishes, carrots, jicama, or your favorite compliant veggie as crudite!

10) Eat More Bars

This “chocolate” protein bar recipe is one of the most popular recipes on my blog!

It’s so easy to make – you just add everything to a food processor, then press the mixture down in a baking sheet – then after you drizzle it with the 1-step icing – refrigerate, slice, and devour!

Do you have any favorite snacks that you’d add to this list?
