3-ingredient super snack

There comes a time in everyone's day when a snack is in order. Perhaps you've just powered through a two hour meeting, perhaps you just finished your workout, maybe you're just plain old hungry. This  super simple, 3-ingredient snack is practically a miracle. And a go-to for serious, but health-consious, snackers. The blend of protein (from the hummus), carbs (from the bread/cracker base) and fresh veg has a staying power that will keep you away from the chips and cookies that call your (ok, my) name all afternoon. 3 ingredient super snack Top a cracker, crostini, rice cracker or small slice of bread (use whatever you like, or whatever you happen to have in the cupboard as long as it's crispy and carby!) with a dollop of hummus and some slices of cucumber. Slice the cucumbers paper-thin and give them a quick twist to add gourmet appeal to this dead-easy snack. If you like, add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and some fresh cracked black pepper for even more appeal. Pair this simple snack with these delightful spring apps for last-minute, no-fuss apps on the deck. spring appetizer And try your hand at making homemade hummus - it's worth the (minimal) effort and beats store-bought any day. images: Rheanna Kish
