Usually around 8:00 I get munchy for a snack. I normally have veggies or maybe fruit. But I'm getting a bit burned out on that. What's your fave filling snack?

    Snacks are my most eaten foods. I go
    for peanut butter and apple or celery. Nuts
    with dried fruit and dark chocolate. Cottage
    cheese and pineapple( sugar free) frozen yogurt.
    Popcorn w/o butter or oil. Granola, Greek yogurt
    with hemp and flax seed. Just a few!
  • I like string cheese or granola bars or cashews. Sometimes I do a wholegrain goldfish/cashew mix. It's higher in fat and calories so you have to have around 200 left for the day but it's soooo good and very filling! And for a chip lover it is very satisfying.
  • Cottage cheese and fruit
    Banana and pb2 or almond butter
    tuna salad on lettuce wrap
    Hard boiled egg
    Avacado half filled with salsa
    Celery with nut butter
    Brown rice cake with nut butter and sliced banana

    I've been eating a lot of strawberries dripped in plain greek yogurt. It's satisfyingly sweet, takes awhile to eat, and is fairly low in calories.

    i love these posts!!! such great ideas!! can't wait to find/try vitatops!! yummers!!! and look pretty good for the kids too!!
  • I love making superfood balls - as long as you have a good base, you can put anything in. A good base is dates and almonds, and that's delicious by itself. But I love to add chia seeds, coconut, peanut butter, raw cacao powder or even goji berries. Roll them into balls of about 2cm width, pop them in the freezer and have 1 or 2 when you need to snack.

    I also love raisins and raw almonds, hummus and wholegrain crackers. Hope this helped :)

    any fruit
  • If you have a craving, you will be looking for fat to satisfy you. A very small handful of almonds works for me.

    8 pm? I'd make some popcorn with coconut oil & sea salt. MMM. But if I'm hungry during the day, I tend to go for protein since it's filling, like a hard-boiled egg or a handful of almonds. If I'm just feeling like crunching something I'll eat carrots.

    Yoghurt is my favourite go to, always hits the spot. Otherwise, I like a piece of fruit paired with a bit of nut butter or cheese.
  • Special k bars or oatmeal granola bars.
