I am bored with my own healthy snacks and want a bunch more to count on when I need them.
Any kind of snack that is relatively easy to prep or easy to make for zip lock or container batches.
Costco's Pirate Booty Cheddar popcorn - 1 and 1/4 cups for under 100 cal was good but need a change!

    2 Tbsp PB2 mixed with 1 Tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk, eat it with a serving of mini pretzels. Less than 160 cal

    Some fruit (I like strawberries, blackberries, peaches, plums, honeycrisp apples).

    Sliced cucumber, sliced red/yellow/green bell peppers...dip em in apple cider or balsamic vinegar.

    Buy kale, spray it with some calorie-free cooking spray, season with a little sea salt and/or salt-free seasoning, and bake until crisp.
