These healthy snacks are “part 2” of the Beyond series from The Daily Crave. Earlier I shared their sweet Beyond Churro bites. Both crunchy product lines are made with a dairy-free, gluten-free, corn-free, grain-free recipe that’s a baked blend of legumes and cassava. But that’s where the similarities end. Beyond Puffs come in vegan cheesy, spicy, and salty varieties for a solidly savory snacking experience. And each generous serving has a nice little dose of protein and fiber.
Beyond Puffs are a Better Way to Enjoy Vegan Cheddar
The ingredients are impressive, the flavors are quite tasty, and the nutrition facts are admirable. In fact, we felt downright virtuous munching on these. But what we loved most was the servings size: 40 puffs! Take that potato chips.

Good but hard to chew
They taste good but there are pretty hard chunks of the beans that my compromised teeth can’t chew. Wish the texture was fully puffed like other puffed snacks. You don’t expect to find hard chunks when you bite into a puff.
Bad texture
Tastes good but the texture is terrible
A tasty surprise
These have become a favorite for my husband and I. Truthfully, our first thought (both of us) was packing peanuts – the biodegradable / edible ones. They do have that vibe. But they’re hearty, crunchy, and have great flavor. The two cheddar varieties were our favorites. They taste remarkably cheesy for a dairy-free snack. And I love that the servings are so sizable – especially since these are quite filling! Even a handful is enough sometimes.
