I'd like to get some new ideas for snacks. What do you like to eat for snacks?
Mine are usually -
-cheese toast and applesauce
-yogurt
-fruit
-100 calorie pack crackers
-very small portion of oatmeal with almond butter, milk, cinn and a few raisins
- turkey and crackers
apple and peanut butter
apple and cheese
Wasa cracker and Laughing Cow
boiled egg sliced on a wasa cracker
roasted garbanzo beans (really spicy)
v-8 (I like the spicy kind, but the plain is good too)
veggies and hummus
That's what I can think of off the top of my head right now. I do try to mix things up when I can and I'm always reading magazines and food blogs for new ideas.
lo-fat triscuits and low-fat cheese
half a bell pepper in strips
cup of raw broccoli florets - sometimes with Annie's dressing as a dip
1/4 cup nuts
small container of fat free NSA yogurt
celery
apple cut up sprinkled with cinnamon
grapefruit
handful of radishes, trimmed
I always try to include some protein with my snacks:
Wasa & Laughing Cow or hummus
Thomas light Multi-grain English Muffin - with LC or hummus
LF String Cheese
South beach protein bar
baby carrots with yogurt dip
yogurt with SF syrups
Fruit with LF string cheese
Yogurt with breakfast cereal
Almonds or Walnuts (good Omega 3 sources)
raw veggies with hummus
Hard-boiled egg
Dry cereal (if decent protein content)
Flatout bread with LC or hummus
LaTortilla with MSF Chick'n or steak strips
My favorite is 1 oz cheese, rye crackers spread with hummus and crab sticks. It looks like almost nothing on the plate, but it's delicous and it fills me up.
snow peas....I eat em like corn chips.
watermelon, heck, any kinda melon
string cheese
laughing cow cheese
lofat plain yogurt with sf jam mixed in
cottage cheese and applesauce
- plate full of fresh tomatoes with salt/pepper
- apple chopped up into bits with spleda and cinnamon
- low fat yogurt with pineapple chunks mixed in
- homemade trail mix (raisins, almonds, popcorn, baked apple chips)
- dried apricots
- raw veggies with low fat sour cream to dip in
