I really got I to the flavored almonds.

Bless the women who have time to bf/pump, raise a newborn AND make cookies. I can barely manage to cook dinner most days

I make cracker sandwiches. Always with stone ground wheat crackers, sliced avocado, sliced cheese, and some kind of sauce or spread--hummus, sun dried tomato pesto, or if I have it on hand, homemade roasted red peppee and walnut sauce. Yum. Also, Think Thin bars when I need fast protein.

I love trail mixes and make my own with sacha inchi seeds (full of omega), cacao nibs, goldenberries and grapes. Tried sacha inchi for the first time at Metropolitan Cooking Show two years ago and have been hooked since. I get them online from sachavida.com because they are organic but you can also find them from another brands.

I also used to make quinoa patties (huge amounts) and freeze them and heat them as needed. Love quinoa and is super versatile in the kitchen.

Trader Joe's Omega-3 trail mix is wonderful (walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries...). Also, smoothies with frozen berries, yogurt or kefir, little bit of honey if you want. Hummus and whole wheat crackers. Pita bread and labne with dried herbs sprinkled on top. Really, though, the nuts were the things I finally found that stopped my constant hunger!

loved lactation cookies, I added cinnamon to the recipe below and would freeze the dough in cookie sized balls so I could bake a few at a time. the original recipe I got from my midwives at wisdom midwifery, but the below adaptation was in the Washington post a couple months ago. I really like the addition of peanut butter and Apple sauce. the original recipe is dry and hard to mix.

Ingredients (Try to use organic ingredients wherever possible)

2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup oats
1/2 cup ground flax seeds
1/2 cup nutritional yeast (not baker's yeast, but the yellow flakes)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup raw sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 cup applesauce
8 tablespoons peanut butter
2 cups dark chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts

Makes 40 cookies

Mix the flour, oats, flax seeds, nutritional yeast, baking soda and salt.

Cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla, then beat in the eggs, applesauce and peanut butter one at a time. Combine the two mixes, then add dark chocolate chips and walnuts.

Put batter in refrigerator for 30-60 minutes. Roll out ping-pong-sized balls and place on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake at 350 F for about 11 minutes until there's light cracking in the surface of the cookies. Do not overbake; you want to keep them soft. Place on racks to cool. Enjoy with a large glass of cold organic milk after 20 minutes while cookies are still warm.

You are breastfeeding-- eat the house! You can!

KIND bars -- yum

I'd try to add fats for satiaty. Coconut oil in your coffee. Quality cheese to snack on. Hummus drizzled with extra olive oil.

But also try to identify what it is you are craving and see if you are missing key nutrients.

Momme Meals makes a great energy bar called go chews! You can find them online.
