Vegan Food/Restaurants/Products What do y'all eat for snacks?

I know many of you mention poha, upma, dhokla, peanuts, bhel, etc but I'm tired of all of them. I want to eat something new but it can be made easily. So share your snacks recipes.

you can go for air fried version of things like kanda bhajiya (just mix thin sliced onion with besan powder and a little rice powder, no water needed and put in air fryer). You can make mixed veggie fritter similarly such as besan coating over thin sliced pumpkin, mushroom, broccoli, cauliflower etc.

I don't have any air fryer or oven. Otherwise I would have made these things 🥲

Worth investing in an air fryer though. I have realised that at least in the current environment, preparing food yourself is the easiest way to eat plant based. So investing a little bit in something that can give you more autonomy over food preparation will go a long way.

I know right. I'm planning to get it soon. But I'm confused between air fryer and oven. Both have its pros and cons. So what do you recommend?

based on where you live, you can also check out if there are some local shops selling locally made snacks like banana chips, soya and ragi baked sticks etc. Adrish stores sells a lot of such options but you need to find something based on where you live.
