Another random snack that really fills me up- I take 3 of those Deli Thins slices of cheese (Sargento) and spread with a layer of hummus. Wrap each slice around a green apple slice. Its the perfect blend of crunch, savory and sweet.

(My husband is a big cookie fiend and he often bakes off a batch of chocolate chip cookies after dinner. I can never eat just one.)


Adding tzatziki or PB to foods really increases the calorie count. I wish it didn’t but FYI.


Get the PB Fit. Tastes just like regular PB, its sooo good

Mix in a small amount of water with it and stir until it thickens up - just like regular peanut butter. I eat it by itself or along side greek yogurt. Also spread it on rice cakes. But you could also spread on fruit, celery etc.

Going to have to try this! I was going to say, hard-boiled eggs (remove some of the yolk, but not obsessively) with Trader Joes garlic mustard aoili. So good.

I also like string cheese and Babybels. Laughing Cow with a few pretzel thins or Bagel Chips. Sometimes I toss the latter in a mug of tomato soup and it's like a diet grilled cheese and tomato soup, the cheese melts a bit.

I'll maybe try the PB Fit, but I don't love peanut butter. I do buy the PB Fit to mix with lowfat yogurt that I use to fill and freeze Kong toys for my dog. She is a fan.

I recently discovered flavored rice cakes and brown rice rolls. Also a game changer. Satisfies the crunchy snack craving but very little calories. You can eat like 3-4 of them at a time and its only like 200 calories or less.

A cup of chicken broth (soup?) with scallions, a few thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms, and tofu or a few frozen wontons if I feel like it. I just microwave it in a mug. It’s salty enough that it satiates the craving for a snack but actually has very few calories.
