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.0 -

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 something0 -

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.0 -
I have yogurt popsicles that are only 40 cal. I feel like I'm still getting my sweet fix without all the cal.0
