    Some of my faves:

    Turkey pepperoni, nuked until crisp (you can have a good bit) and a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese to dip it in. You can have 17 slices of Hormel's turkey pepperoni for 70 cals and a wedge of the Swiss cheese from LC for 35 cals. My kids and hubby love it, too.

    And, I am on a fruit kick right now. Nothing tastes better than oranges at the moment.

    What a FANTASTIC thread!

    Most of my calories are snacks. I snack all day, especially now that it is summer!

    I eat 1/4 cup of prunes at least once a week.

    Mandarin oranges, banana dipped in chocolate silk Jif, guacamole with blue corn tortilla chips, half of a PBJ on Sara Lee light wheat bread.

    1/2 cup slow churned ice cream or 1/2 cup frozen yogurt (90-100),
    popcorn
    a mini quesadilla (1 corn tortilla 50 cals, 1 ounce low fat shredded cheese around 50, nuke in microwave or cook on skillet with 0 cal spray)
    1/2 cup cottage cheese (mmm protein) with some melon or by itself with a little salt and pepper
    nuts (just watch out for portion sizes!!)
    1/8 cup sunflower seeds
    pretzel sticks
    veggie slices with hummus or dipped in plain greek yogurt mixed with spices like sage, dillweed, parsley, onion powder etc,
    slice an apple nuke it 30 seconds and sprinkle with cinnamon and stevia
    whole grain pita pocket with low fat ricotta cheese and some garlic powder
    frozen grapes or frozen mango for a sweet treat
    frozen banana blended to make an "ice cream" like texture
    1/4 cup oatmeal cooked add in applesauce and cinnamon
    applie slices with pb2
    1/2 a baked potato with salsa
    light soup
    plain rice cake with apple butter or pb or jelly
    1 cup frozen spinach thawed (30) with 1/4 cup fat free ricotta (45) and garlic powder and oregano

    i'm not a big fan of 100 cal packs that people have mentioned, just because of the refined flour and lack of nutrients, they prolly aren't as satisfying as something else. they are convenient though so nothing wrong with having them around, i always feel more satisfied having one of these snacks though instead of a 100 cal packet of chips ahoy or something

    generally i have a clementine orange when i want a snack, and it usually does the trick.
    if i need something more satisfying, I go with a hard boiled egg, hummus and carrots, dry roasted unsalted almonds, a small banana, a pear, 2 clementine oranges, or a small spoonful of crunchy peanut butter. I have come to love fruit as a snack and I try to stay away from all pre-packaged, processed "snack packs," like the 100 calorie packs.

    I have yogurt popsicles that are only 40 cal. I feel like I'm still getting my sweet fix without all the cal.
