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.

It depends a little on which snack time I am on. I do a higher calorie snack in the afternoon than I do in the evening.

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.

One slice of whole wheat bread with peanut butter

blackened tilapia (or tilapia any other way)

fruit smoothie (100% juice, real fruits, maybe yogurt) I make an entire blender full, then store the excess in single portion cups.

Hungarian Zucchini Squash with Dill (variation of Hungarian recipe. I just sautee the zucchini cubes, then top with sour cream and dill and warm)

bowl of cereal w/milk

lemon pound cake with blueberries (have a frozen supply)

chopped tomatoes, chopped cucumbers and Feta cheese

rotini pasta salad

canned pineapple (1/3 can) I portion out a can into three little containers in advance. Easy to grab and the first one is cold, too.
