Kids forever arriving home starving straight from school and afternoon activities, and yet it’s still a while before dinner is on the table?
Yep, same here.
The solution? Keep your fridge (or, even better, freezer) stacked with some easy-to-defrost and re-heat healthy snacks that are not only filling, but also bursting with healthy ingredients.
And when it comes to easy, bite-sized snacks, we think these ones, all made in a muffin tin, sound all sorts of delicious.
1. Muffin Tin Quiche with Spinach, Tomato, and Bacon
As perfect for breakfast as they are an after-school snack, make a large batch of these little and keep them in the freezer. You future, time-strapped self will thank you.

2. Homemade Tater Tots with Cheese and Bacon
While these are filled with cheese, chives, and bacon, you can pretty much fill yours with whatever you (and the kids) like. Warning: They taste just like mini loaded baked potatoes that are crispy on the outside, soft and steaming on the inside, meaning it is impossible to stop after just the one.

3. Banana Courgette Oatmeal Cups
These vegan and gluten-free oatmeal cups make the perfect afternoon snack or breakfast on-the-go. Oh, and feel free to customize as you wish. Swap almond butter for peanut butter and add chocolate chips for a real morning treat. Get your Autumn on by tossing in walnuts, diced apple, and extra cinnamon.
