    I love Larabars, they only use unsweetened dried fruits and nuts so there are no added sugars, the apple pie is my favorite and the coconut cream pie is my dessert stand in!

    I LOVE Larabars, the chocolate one is my favorite.

    I just got HOOKED to this last week...its a gr8 healthy snack

    I bought two, the Oats and Honey with toasted coconut, really good, and Maple Walnut Clusters with Chia and Quinoa, haven't tried that one yet. Now I'm going to have to go get all the other flavors. I am a granola fanatic!



    Kind also make many varieties of fruit and nut bars. They have many that are dairy free and gluten free. You can buy the bars and the granola on amazon. They have the best prices for the bars that I have found. They are relatively clean as well

    Swai, very mild easy to prepare fish from Thailand. Wegman's started to carry 32 oz bags frozen and individually wrapped portions. And about as cheap as seafood gets these days, $5/lb

    Red lentils are awesome with quinoa.

    Hey, I just found this @Wegs on Saturday. It was super yummy. I may like it better than tilapia.

    Cottage cheese is my new food - I've tried it before and couldn't stand it but now I crave it. Friendship is my favorite brand.

    The awesomeness that is frozen blueberries in greek yogurt. Top it with a little bit of granola and it's a delicious, healthy dessert.

    Greek yogurt, peanut butter (which I used to hate!) and oatmeal. Sometimes all mixed together.

    I think about oatmeal all day and what I can put in it. Kind of obsessed really :D

    Favorite oatmeal combo is banana coconut though-so filling and delicious!
  • i like to take yogurt, and pipe little dots out onto a cookie sheet. after freezing them, they turn into a delicious and yummy snack!

    California Lavash, Whole Grain Wraps!!!!!! (I get them at Whole Foods)

    I use them for pizzas, wraps, sandwiches, crackers for dips (just tear up and toast)... they are SO versatile
    and way better than sliced bread.

    1/2 Wrap (a whole one is HUGE):

    Trader Joe's Plantain Chips
    They taste EXACTLY like ruffles, with only 3 ingredients, and 140 calories in 20 chips :)
    One of the best things I've ever tasted.

    Not too recent, but Kale Chips. They are soooo good! Make your own, they are easy and crunchy.

    I'll buy 2 bunches of Kale, make a bunch of kale chips, the next day, they are gone. My hubby is SOOO addicted to them lol

    Gah, me too! Even my 9-year-old had some. What seasonings do you guys like?

    Great ideas everyone! Most of mine have been said - seafood, grilled veggies, greek yogurt. I love egg white with veggies in the morning and I recently purchased Jay Robb protein powder and am having fun playing with that.

    Jalapeño Greek Yogurt dip! It's great on raw veggies, or with toast and eggs in the morning!
    you can usually find them pre-made at the grocery store but if not make your own!

    Ingredients
    1 cup Greek-style yogurt
    1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
    Juice of 1 lime
    1 teaspoon cumin
    Salt and pepper

    "Off Label Uses for Kraft Mio"....

    Makes Plain Greek Yougurt taste like a dessert!, Makes any protein drink taste awesome, Instant Diet Soda...mix w/ seltzer, Makes plain Kefir taste like a smoothie. Will flavor Low fat whipped Cream Cheese, Makes it easy to choke down Cottage Cheese. Can flavor No Cal, or No Sugar Syrups. Anywhere a no cal fruit flavor is needed Mio is the answer.

    Spinach in my protein shakes. I can't even taste it! Perfect! and I like spinach. Just seemed odd. Finally tried it and am never turning back. May go for flax seed in it next!
    Oh and dark chocolate...mmm!
