Gluten-Free and All-Natural Crunchies Freeze-Dried Snacks
The dog-days of summer are finally here and I’m always look for portable and healthy snacks to take along with us. We’re a busy family and we’re always on-the-go.
Crunchies freeze-dried snacks are made with just one simple ingredient – fresh fruit – and make the perfect low-cal, gluten-free, all-natural addition to smoothies, acai bowls, sorbet and more. If you’re like me, you can just open a bag and snack on them right out of the bag too!
* Complimentary Samples Received for Review & Feature.
Try Crunchies Mango for a touch of sweet in a refreshing tropical smoothie, or topping an acai bowl with Crunchies Strawberries for a nutritious pop of color & crunch. They’re great tossed into a bowl of cereal, oatmeal, yogurt and ice cream too!
For this foodie feature we received 5 complimentary bags of Crunchies to try out for all of you.
* Freeze-Dried Beets
* Freeze-Dried Strawberries
* Freeze-Dried Strawberry Banana
* Freeze-Dried Mango
* Freeze-Dried Mixed Fruit
As soon as they arrived my family had the Freeze-Dried Mixed Fruit and the Freeze-Dried Mango opened and were snacking on them straight from the bag. I like to pour them into little bowls and they just grab a handful and go.
What’s really cool about Crunchies is that they contain about 3.5 servings of real fruit. It’s a great way to get extra fruit into your daily diet without putting a lot of effort into it. Next, they need no refrigeration, so it’s a great on-the-go snack!
Calories range from 35 to 40 calories per serving, so they’re perfect for those of us who are watching our weight. Having fruit that is conveniently available is a great way to eat “healthier” snacks and to avoid the bad ones.
Unlike other freeze-dried fruit snacks that I’ve tried in the past, the Crunchies are indeed crunchy, but not teeth-breaking hard. Matter of fact, if you let them sit in your mouth, they practically melt within seconds. Great for people who have chewing problems or jaw issues.
Those 5 bags of Crunchies didn’t last long in my house! Within 5 days, my family had devoured all 5 bags! There wasn’t a bad flavor in the bunch! I would seriously buy them all!
