    To supplement the previous suggestions, I include things like Wasa Crackers (especially crisp 'n light) or the triscuit thins. You can top them with anything from cheese to veggies to smoked salmon. I also like snapea crisps (unlike potato chips, I can stop at one serving). If you have a microwave, you can pop corn in a paper bag and spritz it with olive oil and your favorite spices. They also have all different shapes of rice, kamut and other grain "cakes". I only like the thin ones -with peanut butter, cream cheese and cucumber, or anything you'd put on a sandwich. I also like a corn tortilla rolled up with some refried beans and salsa. They also have sandwich thins which I like as toast with whatever sounds good when I'm toasting them-peanut butter and banana, peanut butter and thinly sliced apple. Truthfully, I usually eat either pistachios or almonds everyday since they're quick to eat and fill me up.

    I like both sweet and savory.....but I would suggest that you try Baby Bel light cheese rounds, they are 50 calories each and are delicious. You could pair them with any number of light crackers, where 5 or 6 crackers are 70 calories.....you should also try almonds, especially Marcona almonds from Costco; 28 nuts are 170 calories and they are tasty and have energy and fiber which keep you which keep you satisfied until the next snack in a couple hours. Enjoy.

    Awesome ideas thank you!
    Definitely looking at a popcorn maker - they look amazing and forgot I liked houmous etc. It's just rmemebering these things when it's so easy to just grab a slice of bread/cheese!!

    Thanks everyone :)

    i eat pretzels & hummus quite often. I just count out the serving size, 32 sticks for 110 calories, for the kind I buy + the hummus. Yummy!

    Hard pretzels are good. I like Clancy's Honey Wheat pretzels myself. Not too high in calories and low in fat too.

    I make my own pita chips...take one pita bread and cut into 16 pieces...toss in a bog bowl with 1 tbsp calorie wise italian dressing and what ever other seasoning you love and crave ( i always add chili powder and Salt and pepper). Bake low and slow in a singe layer and turn once the first side is golden then bake until golden on both sides....it usually takes about 20-25 minutes at 300 degrees. Enjoy as is or with a sensible portion of salsa or hummus!

    Tofutti Cream Cheese (which is the Vegan equivalent of cream cheese) solves my salty cravings. I'm not a vegan, but I used this stuff to make Veggie Pizza for a friend of mine. I immediately noticed that it seemed extra salty. 2 Tbsps are 60 calories. You can dip carrots or celery in it for not a lot of extra calories and get both crunch and saltiness.
