Just trying to get some new ideas.
My current favs are:

Extra crunchy PB on a spoon (1 TBSP)
Laughing Cow cheese wedges w/ Special K whole wheat crackers (SO good, wedge 35 cals, crackers 120 cals for 24)
Pistachios
String cheese
Almonds
Jello Temptations Chocolate Mouse (In freezer, taste like chocolate ice cream 60 cals)
Chiobani Greek yogurt 2%

    what comes to mind first is a cup of milk, it's definitely food with protein so you stay full longer. :)
    definitely also peanut butter or a handful of nuts. try a tbsp of nutella for a chocolate nutty treat!!

    Milk is my FAVORITE beverage. Now, Nutella... gotta stay away form it. It's too addictive.

    Definitely a handful of almonds. However, the laughing cow and crackers sound delicious for so few calories.

    My favorites right now....

    String cheese
    Hardboiled egg
    Hummus and pita chips...is hummus a vegetable?

    And my biggest favorite right now that I'm recommending to all those chocolate people out there. One envelope of diet hot cocoa mix(or reg depending where you're at for calories) and some vanilla protein powder(I use 1/3 a scoop) and then 12 oz of water. Just mix the hot cocoa mix and protein powder first, I found the protein powder dissolves better that way. It's sooo delicious and filling at the same time. It's good mixed in coffee too!

    earl grey tea
    almonds and dried pomegranite (sorry the last is a fruit, but i eat the 2 together)
    hot choco

    @tinkermom i'm going to have to try putting protein powder in my hot cocoa. how i've been making my cocoa is
    tablespoon of trader joe's unsweetened cocoa powder, cup of rice milk, 2 teaspoons brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and a dash of cayenne pepper for cheek. i bet protein powder would taste awesome in that

    Yeah, and I just eat them by themselves, so much flavor for so few calories! If they're too strong they can be a bit of an acquired taste, though, in which case you might just use them to cook with.

    If I want something sweet, See's Cafe Latte Krispys. They are individually wrapped, so I can eat just one. 38 calories apiece.
