Hi all!
Just wondering what a low-ish calorie snack is thats *really* satisfying, either because it's got the 'mouth-feel' as in crunchy or creamy, or it's got a massive flavour? I'm really getting the midnight munchies at the mo!

    I like the sugar free jello. Hummus and veggies seems to be pretty filling too.

    I absolutely love those Planters Nut-rition individual packs. They're calorie dense (it's got like 15 pieces in it for 200 calories), which is good for me because I tend to go under on calories, and low on salt (40mg for the pack I buy!), which is good because I tend to be over on sodium. Something small and filling and super healthy.

    I'm big on Tostitos scoops and Jack's salsa! If I need a snack, that's usually what I reach for... loads of flavor, crunchy and spicy, and I only need a little (say, 12 chips) to be satisfied. Also love pretzel sticks and hot chocolate (k-cup, 60 cals for hot choc.) together! Both these snacks are 150 or under (and under 7g of fat) and I don't need a lot of it to be satisfied :)

    note: I'm not a "carb-o-phobe" so eating these doesn't scare me... carbs (in moderation, as with anything else) are ok with me.

    I read the topic and thought "snacks!" LOL! :bigsmile:

    For me, a handful of cocoa roasted almonds (dark chocolate flavor), or some smartpop popcorn, or pirate booty makes a nice low calorie snack.
