    Raw veggies and fruits. String cheese. Cottage cheese or yogurt. Hard boiled eggs. Protein bars. Protein powder smoothies.
    I make oat bars about once a month, keep them in the freezer, take one out and pop it in the microwave for 1 minute.

    Crispy broad beans or nuts in 100-calorie single serve packets. Prunes. Fresh fruit. Babybel light cheese individual rounds. Light Jarlsberg or Cabot Light Cheddar Cheese. Good-quality individually wrapped chocolates, such as Lindt truffles, Godiva hearts, Ghirardelli squares. Marinated mushrooms. Pickles. Puppodums (microwave them, no oil needed). Dry-roasted soy nuts. Crispy chickpeas or lentils.

    Protein balls (Oats, peanut butter, protein powder balled up).

    Oats desert (Oats, peanut butter, frozen berries, flax, chia pop in microwave with water and done deal or make a bunch for over night Oats the next week).

    Sardines with some crackers.

    Cut up apples with cinnamon, Greek yogurt, pecans, berries, and some whip cream.

    YES! To all of the above. 😍

    There isn’t anything much easier (or faster) than fruits and veggies. - grab and go.

    I started here,
    https://www.mysequinedlife.com/healthy-baked-oatmeal-bars/#recipe and made changes.

    I put the oats in the blender until they make a course flour.
    I leave out the baking powder and usually the cinnamon and maple.
    I use unsweetened almond milk to cut calories.
    I beat the egg whites separately and fold them in last.(instead of baking powder).
    I always make mine with almonds, and increase the fruit to about 1/2 cup.

    I bake them in a 9 x 13 pan at 250 for an hour to an hour and 10 minutes and when they cool, cut them into 24 bars.

    Mine are a lot different consistency than hers, and I would think most people would like hers better. Mine makes a dense bar, under
    100 calories each. I’m not a big sweets eater, and these are a perfect dessert or sweet snack for me, perfect size.

    An easy one is a sliced apple, and dip it in a low-fat Greek yogurt like Chobani. About 200 calories and very filling with protein and fiber.
