Triskets in Rosemary and Olive Oil!
I was watching a morning news show and the dietician said that regular Triskets were a better choice then the Reduced Fat Wheat Thins. So I thought I'd give them a try.
They were REALLY good. I had some with my tuna instead of bread. (I sort of used the tuna as a spread.) It was DELICIOUS!!!!
Oh and hummus. I love hummus. So do my kids which is a BIG plus.

cheese toast - lite cheese on a piece of healthy bread
cereal, fruit, milk
cinnomon toast
cheese and crackers
hard boiled egg whites with lite mayo and crackers
fruit and peanut butter
crackers and almond butter
peanut butter and honey toast
yogurt
a tbl of Hersheys' syrup mixed with 2 t. peanut butter - taste like a Reeses
celery and carrots with deip
Other than the occasional S-F jelly, which really isn't my idea of a filling snack, I don't touch packaged foods. Those snack packs one can buy are full of empty calories, IMO. The things I like are:
nuts
seeds
kefir
cheese
natural peanut butter
cup of cocoa
I find any of the above in a reasonably-sized portion hits the spot for me.
Definitely 100 cal popcorn bags
Edy's No Sugar Added Fruit Bars (30 cals, yum!)
No Sugar Added Applesauce
Skinny Cow Ice Cream
Almonds
Clementines
No Sugar Added Quaker Oatmeal
I am simply amazed how the calories drop when I get something that's labeled "No Sugar Added". And maybe it's just me and maybe my tastes have changed, but I honestly can't tell the difference!
I"m the same with the no sugar added! it tastes completely he same to me and If I want to add a little sweetness i add a packet of splenda or sweet and low!
and having an empty calorie snack every now and then is ok! I'd die with out them! you just cant revolve your day around them or your life style.. and make sure it's will fit into your daily allowance not that your taking away other healthy foods in place of an empty calorie treat- then it would be wrong
strawberries, banana, oranges mixed..mmm
cut up peppers...green , red, yellow mixed or just one
low sugar oatmeal pack
light wheat toast with a TBS of natural PB
sf jello
tangerine
pear
tomato sliced with a just a bit of Italian
My favorite (and I look forward to it every day) is fat free Activia strawberry yogert mixed with a tbsp or 2 of kashi go lean crunch and like 4 strawberry sliced thin. YUMO!
