my housemates think it's really weird,but I LOVE a banana cut in half longways and then half short-ways filled with peanut butter: like a pb sandwich but with banana instead of bread!

Tasha_Star

1/4 cup of natures path hemp and omega granola

Mix: 1/4 cup of greek yogurt, little less than 1/4 cup of milk (skim or 1%), and little less than 1/4 scoop of protein powder...makes a silky yogurt sauce you can pour over the granola.

I eat only 1/4 of the granola because its high in carbs/calories as most granola is (although as far as granola goes this is one of the healthiest I've found...) but you could eat whatever you please and use the yogurt blend as a drizzle!

Graham crackers with cream cheese and sliced grapes

seventyand

Little cube of sugared preserved ginger. Found it in a health food store. Satisfies and soothing to the stomach.

seventyand

One square of 72% organic dark chocolate sold in pound plus bars at Trader Joe's. One square is not too high in calories and doesn't produce a craving for the rest of the bar.

I think I saw it on here

Half a graham cracker
Spread light cream cheese on top
Spread reduced sugar strawberry jelly on top of that

Voila! You have mini cheesecakes

I like to get an avocado and slice it, take tha skin off and cut into smaller pieces and do the same with a cucumber and then put a little vinegar in a bowl with salt and pepper and mix it all together. Its amazing if you dont mind vinegar

My favorite snack is hummus and veggies. Mmmm....

I also love apples and nut butter. Raw cashew butter is my favorite, but a close second is a Target brand almond/cashew/peanut butter.

I usually do cottage cheese and salsa mixed........delish........I will have to try this....the pesto is a nice twist. Thanks.

Unique you say? I love me some sardines mixed with cottage cheese (sometimes avocado too). Tastes delicious to me, and gives my body lots of protein.

When I get a sweet & salty craving I do a few pretzels with a few chocolate chips thrown in... Nothing to strange - but it helps with the cravings..

Pollyfleming

2 reduced fat triskets, light cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, and finely diced red onion. It's super satisfying and low calorie.

yes this! and celery with almond butter (or fresh nut butter) and a few raisins. brings me back to childhood days of ants on a log. also, it's got fruit, veggie and a fat. I tend to lean towards this if I have a sugar craving after dinner!

I dice up a peeled cucumber and pour 2 T of Ponzu sauce (basically a citrus soy sauce) on it. Drink your water because of the sodium but I love the flavor!

Bump! Can't wait to get some great ideas!

Sugar free jelly mixed with cottage cheese!

-Soy crisps (about 5 cal each) with a smear of Smuckers natural peanut butter (or other nut butter) (about 55 cal for a TB).
-Trader Joe's Seaweed Snacks. Yummy, sesame/salty flavor that reminds me of sushi. Only 30 cal for a 1/2 package.
-Flavored coffee. (Not so unique but the flavored coffees offer a good way to satisfy cravings. I drink them black but a ts of sugar goes a long way.)

I love taking a small Oikos vanilla Greek yogurt (4 oz - the kind that comes in 4 packs. I find 6 oz to be too much), 1/2 tablespoon of some kind of nut butter (right now, I love PB & Co's Oatmeal Raisin Swirl), 1 teaspoon of whole roasted flax seeds, and chopped strawberries, and mixing it all together! Mmmmm.

Sometimes I slice a cucumber into small rounds, then add hummus, tomato, and turkey slices and another round on top. Mini cucumber sandwiches!

55 cals for a TB?!!! What peanut butter are you using, because I need this! All the PB I've found is 95-100 calories per tablespoon.
