    Kind Almond & Coconut bars... SOOOOO good. But high on the calorie/fat side so I can't eat them all the time. Which makes them a real treat!

    Luna Honey Peanut Pretzel bars... I eat one daily.

    Pop Corners - white cheddar is like eating Smart Food popcorn & they are all natural.

    3,2,1 cake topped with 1tbs of raspberry preserves.

    Just curious how many calories are in this? I love it but didn't know how to track it.

    When I'm craving something sweet, I go for frozen cool whip, fiber one bar, or anything with nutella on it!

    Carrot sticks dipped in light vegetable cream cheese. It's like I'm at a party, only without all the inane small talk.
    LOL!:laugh:

    It depends on who you ask. I eat chips and salsa as a healthy snack, but an awful lot of people on MFP seem to think it's bad.

    A healthier option to the chips- Wasa rosemary crispbread. It's only 70 calories for two slices (think the size of a graham cracker sheet). It's soooo yummy with salsa, without the chips calories

    Lower calories doesn't make it heatlhier.

    CHIPS AND SALSA are one of my favorite snakcs. Who says they aren't healthy?

    Tostitos - Bite Size Rounds, (1 serving is 24 chips - that's a lot!)
    1 cup of homegrown and homemade salsa (no salt)

    176 calories / 114 sodium / 26 carbs / 242 potassium

    Not bad for a "snack" that fills you up and doesn't leave you wanting something else!

    I love the fiber one fudge brownies and chocolate chip brownies. I also like the pop secret 100 calorie butter popcorn. It's a tiny bag, but it does the trick.

    A Ghiradelli dark chocolate square and sleepytime tea makes for a heavenly nightime snack. In the afternoon I often crave chips and salsa so I use the Special K chips (sea salt) in lieu of tortilla chips. I also indulge in almonds from time to time, but not too often because of the high fat and calorie content.

    Frozen yogurt with (insert random fruit flavor here)
    fresh berries, frozen in my freezer for a couple hours is AMAZING on a hot day
    Fruit to go bars
    Baked apples and cinnamon (just apples sliced in half, cored, splashed with some water to keep it from drying out, and cinnamon on top baked in the oven until the top just starts to brown and when touched feels soft)

    Basically anything with fruit is a weakness, so I find flour-free and sugar-free ways to indulge.

    I like grapes coated with sugar free jello mix. They are so sweet and delicious and even low cal! I also love the Yoplait Light Dessert yogurts. At only 90 calories, they taste like a dessert but you also get the healthy benefits of yogurt!

    baked bbq chips, and frozen fruit bars

    We like baked chips in our house, too. Although, I'd say my favorite - Which may or may not be "junk food" as I can't see "junk food" and "healthy" squaring each others' circles. They ARE, by definition, mutually exclusive. - I'd say my favorite would be basically any flavor of Lara Bar. OH, those things are addictive. We've started making them at home, they're so good.

    Definitely not "junk food", but I'll pit a big batch of cherries then freeze them. Nothing better on a scorching day than cherries straight out of the freezer!
