Snacks Anyone??

  • I eat 6 meals a day so I running out of snacking ideas! What does everyone like to munch on throughout the day??
  • Normally I don't link to old threads because I don't want to seem snarky, but a couple people gave awesome answers in this recent thread that might help you:

  • Thanks Mayness - I will take a look!
  • I can add some of my favourites:

    hummus with carrots (or flatbread)
    beef jerky (making it myself recently)
    homemade snack cakes (high protein, made with soy flour and/or protein powder)
    soy nuts, also almonds
  • Lately my favorites have been grapes, carrot sticks and cauliflower with a little low fat dressing, baked tortilla chips with salsa, and homemade no sugar added applesauce.

    Also Yogurt with apple slices
  • Low Fat Cottage Cheese with Fresh Fruit

    Hummus & Carrots

    Apples & Cheese (laughing cow)

    trail mix = 94% Fat Free Popcorn, Roasted Nuts (not salted), mini chocolate chips, dried cranberries (jsut a few for a pop of flavor)

    Tomato Basil Mozzarella salad = 1 roma tomato, 1 stick of reduced fat mozzarella, 1 tsp fresh basil & 1 tbsp EVOO
  • Just an FYI - my doc said to stay away from grapes, mangos & bananas. They are high in sugar.

    Also, steer clear of PB if you can.

    I love PB, so I allow myself to have it on my cheat day!
