Good Afternoon all, I'm new to the group and thought I would say hi and ask what you like to snack on. I generally stick to fresh fruit with a weekly treat of green & blacks dark chocolate! Yum! As they say variety is the spice of life, so please share as always looking to vary my selections. Thanks in advance :-)

    I am also a fresh fruit snacker, but just may have a crispbread & small bit of cheddar if really stuck

    I get a Graze box delivered every week; it's my healthy treat and I like surprises! I have the 'light' option, so none of the little punnets are much over about 120 calories. Costs a couple of ££ but I used to spend more than that on chocolate and rubbish :blushing:

    Agree on the graze boxes - they're a really good little snack, out side of that grapes are a really good way to go..

    Houmous with carrot, rice cake with peanutt butter, cherry tomatoes, fruits (sometimes with greek style natural yogurth - pomegranate goes really well with it!)

    I make my own muffins, they are jam picked with fruit, low fat & processed sugar. Feel indulgent whilst still being slightly nutritious. Also seems to keep me away from chocolate as they give me my sweet tooth hit!

    You gave me an idea, so copied it, but not the chilli variety

    BTW Morrison's have Philly on offer for a quid at the moment if any one fancies stocking up

    Anything with peanut butter. I love the Whole Earth organic stuff. It's good with apple, mashed banana, straight off the spoon :blushing: . Yum

    Great suggestions folks, is it wrong to contemplate a day of nothing but snacks!? :-)

    I loooove Nakd bars! They're 100% fruit/berries/seeds with natural flavours like cocoa-mint, orange, cashew cookie and banana bread. They're gorgeous, and only 145 cals or so. I keep a box in the car so I avoid stopping at the shop for chocolate/crap on the school run. ;)

    I always have one in my bag. This stops me using the excuse that 'I have to eat a lot as I don't know when I'll be eating next and hunger gives me migraines'
