Salty and sweet combine with crunch for the perfect, omega-filled and protein-packed on-the-go snack. Keep Hemp Heart Bites on hand for a healthy, delicious boost anytime you need them.

Happy (Jewish) New Year, everyone! I really can’t believe its Rosh Hashana already. Fall, I feel you coming, and I am so excited.
You know what else is here? Football season! GO COWBOYS! My fantasy team is off to a great start (Yes, I play fantasy football. No, I don’t know what I’m doing), and I’m on the lookout for new healthy football watching snacks!
What makes the perfect football snack? Something munchy, crunchy, slightly salty and delicious! I could get a bag of potato chips or whip up some nachos, but lately I’ve been loving Manitoba Harvest’s new Hemp Heart Bites.
I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with these, but they are football snack perfection. They’re made with hemp, organic sweeteners (like cane sugar and brown rice syrup) and a little sea salt, so they’re slightly salty, have just enough sweetness and crunch to perfection. One serving also packs 10g of protein, 3g of fiber and 10g of omegas, so they’re super nutritious and filling.
Manitoba Harvest sent me this cute little snack bag, too, so if the Cowboys aren’t playing on my local channel (which they aren’t most weeks), I can pack them up and bring them to a bar with me. I have food allergies, so having my own snacks on hand is a must. #noshame
And now for the most fun part! Manitoba Harvest is offering all of you lovelies 15% OFF Hemp Heart Bites! Just use code “HHBitesLaunch15” at checkout (expires 11/5/15).

So happy to introduce you to a new healthy snack :).
I never would have thought to use it as a football snack – great idea and so much healthier!
I always want the unhealthy stuff, but my tummy always thanks me for the good-for-you goodies 🙂
Happy New year to you too! We may have a problem with the Cowboys thing though 🙂 I love the hemphearts! Can’t believe I never had them before now. Thanks for linking up today

haha – well the Eagles took DeMarco Murray away from us. Sad times :(. Do you like the Hemp Hearts? I love them on salads!
Seriously these snacks are my jam. I currently have two cases of them waiting to be consumed. Also, congrats on the win last night….as much as that pains me to say!

Hemp is a variety of cannabis plant – but it won’t get you high or anything like that. Here’s a whole site that explains it and it’s uses: https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/hemp-101-what-is-hemp-whats-it-used-for-and-why-is-it-illegal
So many Steelers fans! When it comes to PA teams, I’ll take the Steelers over the Eagles any day… as long as they’re not playing my boys ;-P
I REALLY want to get my hands on those and give them a try. I loooove Manitoba Harvest – hooray for Canadian companies!
Ange @ Cowgirl Runs recently posted…Dear Women’s Running Magazine…
Yey!! I bet they’ll be at a store near you. Or you can order them online or enter the contest!
Those snacks do sound yummy! I must have good snacks around or I’ll grab anything and by anything I mean not something healthy!
Tricia@MissSippipiddlin recently posted…RooSport Giveaway
I’m the same way! I can’t keep bad stuff around at all or I’ll eat it all.
Interesting! I bet with the little bit of salt, they can be pretty tasty!

The slight saltiness is just the right amount 🙂
I tried Hemp Hearts back in the fall and sadly had an allergic reaction to it. I wish that hadn’t been the case. 🙁

Not a football fan, but I am a snacking fan. So let’s say someone invited me to their house for a game, I would show up and cheer and eat snacks haha.

These looks so tasty! I love that bowl, love at first bite =)
It’s so cute, huh? I just want to put everything in it now haha.
I love their hemp hearts. I bet these are great, too. We’re a 49ers household here. The husband has been a loyal fan for 25 years. Haha.

Nice! What about Moxie?
These sound delicious! I bet they’d be great to crumble on smoothies and oatmeal and things too. I usually put chia seeds in my oat bake recipes for crunch, but I’d love to try these!

Have a wonderful day!

ooo split house, huh? Mine is the same. My dad likes anyone BUT the Cowboys – not really sure how I wound up being a Cowboys fan haha
Shoutout to the Steelers and the Patriots! I’m not really a football fan but I love the friends family and football that goes on in our house during football season.

lol at your fantasy football comment. I wouldn’t know what I’m doing either. I’ve never tried anything hemp so this is new to me. Interesting!
