Anybody have any snack ideas/recipes that are low in sugar count? But not using chemical sweetners.

Been at this a few weeks and have been consuming too many 100 calorie pack/packaged snack type products.
Added in veggies/carrots etc but that is only going to last so long before I'm sick of it.

    Mt. Olive Pickle Packs - high in sodium, but zero calories and full of dill pickly goodness LOL

    Almonds - I keep several varieties in my desk, though some have artificial sweeteners

    fruit - not exactly low in sugar, but not sugar you should worry about - I've been taking a granny smith apple and a clementine every day lately

    Reduced fat ritz crackers with a lite laughing cow creamy swiss wedge (just had that as an afternoon snack!)

    peanut butter on anything LOL

    Hard boiled egg

    baby carrots, cucumbers, pepper slices, any fresh raw veggie

    If veggies are too blah for you, have some low cal hummus with them. Roasted, unsalted pistachios are a fave of mine.

    A piece of fruit and a string cheese stick work for me. There is modest sugar in the fruit but it's buffered by the fiber content.

    The Vasa light-n-crisp crackers are mostly air, so you can eat several with a happy crunch for ery few calories. Dip in salsa for some zing and flavor.

    Cup-a-soup chicken noodle is low calorie and (for me) kind of comforting as a snack.

    Have you heard of Stevia. Its a natural sugar and very low in calories or has no calories. Dr Oz recommends it and so do a few nutritionists. Hope it helps.
