    What is low calorie to you? For me my snacks can range from 100-300 calories. Some I enjoy often are

    -Hummus with crackers, or cut up veggies
    -Greek yogurt
    -Turkey pepperoni and laughing cow cheese
    -Cottage cheese
    -Oatmeal
    -Fruit - apple, banana, cantaloupe, berries
    -Slice of toast with peanut butter
    -Hard boiled eggs
    -Multigrain tostitos with salsa
    -Nuts - especially pistachios
    -Granola bars...I'm not a huge fan but a lot of people love them!

    Thanks for the idea about using celery with it. :) I never thought of that! That is going to be my new go to snack.

    clementines- soo yummy and on sale this time of year

    unshelled peanuts- when I have to shell it takes longer, which is good.
    if I'm done with my snack in seconds. that's just not satisfying.

    mix canned black beans with salsa + romaine leaf folded like a taco
    they also work for dinner when everyone else is having tortillas/100 cal each or more.

    @katy_trail I love the tip of mixing black beans with salsa and folding it into a lettuce wrap. Genius!
