My post of Paleo Snack Ideas has been so popular, that I've created a new recipe ebook on Paleo snacks.

As well as lots of simple snack ideas that work well on a Paleo diet, the recipe book contains almost 80 pages of recipes. These recipes are for simple snacks that you can make and take to work, serve to children, travel with, eat after dinner, drink or use to help you on your weight loss journey. There's a snack recipe for every taste and situation! By popular demand I've also include a chapter on grab and go Paleo snack recipes.

As well as clear, easy to follow recipes, the book also features beautiful photos of most of the recipes to inspire you! The book also includes an introduction into the Paleo diet and the place of snacks on this plan.

These are some of the recipes and photographs featured in the Paleo Snack recipe ebook

The book is currently on sale for $17 and can be purchased by credit card, debit card or paypal. It comes with a 30 day guarantee and instant download. I'm also currently offering further discounts if you buy two or three of my recipe ebooks together! My recipe ebooks are currently available in digital format – I will update this page as soon as the print versions are available.

I'd love to hear your feedback on the ebook!

Why Paleo Snacks Matter More Than You Think

Snacking gets a bad rap in many dietary circles, but on a well-formulated Paleo diet, the right snacks can play a vital role in keeping your energy stable, curbing cravings, and helping you stay on track — especially when life gets busy. Having nutritious snacks at the ready means you’re far less likely to fall off the wagon or reach for something that doesn’t support your goals.

Whether you're transitioning to Paleo, managing blood sugar levels, or trying to fuel long days at work or with the kids, the recipes in The Paleo Snack Recipe Book are designed to make healthy eating simple and delicious at every stage of your journey.

Who This Recipe Book Is For

This book was created for anyone looking for real-food, grain-free snack ideas that are easy to make, transport, and enjoy without second-guessing the ingredients. Whether you’re doing Whole30, following a strict elimination phase, living a flexible Paleo lifestyle, or just trying to eat fewer processed foods, you’ll find snack ideas that meet your needs and support your goals.

If you’ve ever struggled to find healthy options between meals, or you’ve been stuck relying on the same few snack staples, this book will help expand your go-to options with fresh ideas and bold flavours. And if you’re preparing snacks for kids or family members with food intolerances, there are plenty of kid-approved and allergen-conscious recipes included as well.

What You’ll Find Inside the Paleo Snack Recipe Book

Spanning nearly 80 pages, the book includes snack recipes for every occasion — from salty and savoury to sweet and satisfying. Here's a closer look at some of the snack categories featured in the book:

On-the-Go Snacks: Perfect for work, travel, or school lunchboxes. These include homemade jerky, seed crackers, and trail mixes without hidden nasties.
Sweet Treats: Made with whole food ingredients like dates, coconut, cacao, and nuts — but without the refined sugars or grains.
Post-Workout Fuel: Balanced combinations of protein and carbohydrates to help you recover and refuel after movement.
Drinkable Snacks: Smoothies, broths, and other liquid options for when chewing feels like too much effort but nourishment is still needed.
Kid-Friendly Snacks: Designed to please picky eaters with fun shapes, colours, and textures — but still made with 100% real food.

Each recipe includes simple instructions, a full list of ingredients, and clear preparation steps. The photos accompanying many of the recipes are there to inspire and help you visualise what the final result should look like.

How These Snacks Fit Into a Paleo Lifestyle

The Paleo philosophy centres on eating nutrient-dense, whole foods while avoiding modern processed ingredients that disrupt digestion, hormones, and metabolic health. That means no gluten, grains, dairy (unless tolerated), refined sugar, seed oils, or additives.

All the recipes in this book are compliant with these principles and focus on ingredients like nuts, seeds, meat, vegetables, fruit, coconut, natural sweeteners, and spices. They’re designed to support steady energy, satiety, and nutritional balance — without relying on modern snack traps like crisps, protein bars, or ultra-processed convenience foods.

Each snack recipe can easily be paired with meals or added to your meal prep rotation to keep your weekly planning simple and stress-free.

Make-Ahead and Freezer-Friendly Options

Many of the snacks in the book can be made ahead in batches, making them ideal for meal prep Sundays or busy weeks where you want to stay organised. Some can even be stored in the freezer, so you always have something nourishing to reach for — instead of defaulting to less optimal options when hunger strikes.

This is especially useful if you’re cooking for multiple people or trying to reduce the time you spend in the kitchen during the week. Just portion, store, and grab as needed.

Why Homemade Snacks Are Better

It’s tempting to reach for pre-packaged “Paleo” snacks from the supermarket — but many of these still contain questionable ingredients, high levels of dried fruit or nut-based sweeteners, and hidden additives or oils. By making your own snacks, you get full control over every ingredient and can adapt recipes to suit your personal preferences and dietary needs.

Making your own snacks is also a great way to cut down on food waste. Use up ripe bananas in muffins, leftover herbs in seed crackers, or extra roast vegetables in savoury mini frittatas. It’s a smart, sustainable way to eat — and your wallet will thank you too.

Bundle and Save

If you're enjoying this snack recipe book, don’t forget that there are savings available when you purchase multiple recipe ebooks at once. Whether you're interested in breakfasts, lunches, dinners, or treats, you can create your own bundle of resources at a discounted rate. Find all the details on this page.

Snack Smarter, Live Better

Snacks aren’t just something to tide you over — they’re an opportunity to nourish your body between meals, maintain energy, and keep your health goals on track. With this ebook, you’ll have everything you need to prepare delicious, nutrient-dense snacks that work with your lifestyle, not against it.

Whether you’re planning your weekly meals, looking for new lunchbox fillers, or simply want better options for your afternoon slump, The Paleo Snack Recipe Book is your go-to guide for smarter snacking.

If it wasn't for struggling to come up with different Paleo Breakfast Ideas, I'm sure more people would make the transition over to Paleo. Unfortunately, Breakfast seems to be associated with cereal, toast, bagels, crumpets and sugar laden foods.

I think a lot of people also get stuck in a breakfast rut making the same dish every day. Well, it’s time to break it up – try something new for breakfast tomorrow!
