    A really good alternative to tostitoes is wonton wraps. My sisters and I cut them into triangles, season them with garlic powder and bake them in the oven. 10 wonton wraps is about 120 calories (which makes 20 triangles) compaired to about 260 calories for 12 restaurant style tostitoes!

    That is an awesome idea!

    Edamame with sea salt. I buy the individual frozen packs at Costco and bring them to work. When I get hungry in the afternoon, I pop one in the microwave and it keeps me full for a few hours (99 calories).

    I love baby carrots-I can eat 20 for around 50 calories. I also love string cheese, homemade dehydrated apples, and homemade beef jerky.

    yep, love those! Egg roll wrappers work, too! You can also sprinkle with cinnamon and splenda, and dip in pudding for a sweet treat!

    What is Edamame? Sounds interesting. My favorite is any fresh veggie or a serving of fiber one. Of course, reading all of these posts now make me HUNGRY!

    Currently....
    Wheat Thins by Nabisco

    16 crackers feels like a REAL serving....and only 140 cal with 2g fiber.
    Knowing that I'm usually happy with 8

    Lately I've been making Kale chips. Take fresh Kale, cut the ends and cut up the remaining leaves and spread
    on baking sheet. Spray with Pam olive oil spray, sprinkle whatever seasonings you like...i use a little salt, pepper,
    garlic and a pinch of hot pepper flakes. Pop in oven @ 350 for about 10 mins. The Kale becomes crispy around
    the edges and tastes sooo good. It's also a nice alternative as a side with a sandwich for lunch. Love all your ideas!!
