I can't remember how Core works, so not sure if this follows that program (do you still at least get flex points to use on non-core items)
If so...
Are you looking for sugary snacks, salty? What do you crave come snacktime?
The only time I crave a snack is at night, and it's usually a sugar craving. My favorite snack is S'mores. I always keep the ingredients onhand and one s'more is usually just enough to kill the sugar craving.
Reduced fat graham crackers
bag o marshmallows
Mini chocolate chips
I assemble, but leave the top off and pop in the microwave for a few seconds til I see the marshmallow puff up. Take out, smoosh the top on and Voila.
I find these very filling and 1 is usually plenty. I'll splurge for two, or a glass of milk with it if I have the points left over.
Not the healthiest snack, but I normally eat very healthy during the day and save these for my treat after dinner.
Daytime snacks I lean more towards fruit or a smoothie. I keep bags of frozen berries in the freezer and pop some in the blender with a banana and some juice. I know you cant run to the market all the time for fresh ingredients, but dont discount the frozen ones.
And if I'm craving salty. I portion out a serving of nuts (and put the bag AWAY!!)
Hope this helped
