As sticking to a long healthy streak and getting use to logging in my meals everyday, I often wonder what other healthy low fat snacks are there to eat in between meals. I am not a creature of habit on eating the same snack everyday especially during the work week. Usually I snack on nuts, a rice cake, fruit, etc. What is your favorite snack that gets you through the next meal?

    Snap pea crisps are great!!! I also like nuts, protein bars, pretzels (for days when I have carbs to spare), dried fruit, or veggie crisps.

    Greek yogurt + berries.

    almonds + chocolate chips

    fruit - oranges, pears, berries

    apple + peanut butter

    One of my MFP friends has been sauteing apple slices in coconut oil then sprinkling with cinnamon - I can't wait to try that.

    I like cheese strings as a go-to snack... with a piece of fruit. The combination of protein from the cheese and fiber in the fruit lasts quite a while and it helps me to reach my protein target for the day.

    Protein at meals and for snacks will keep you going. Handful of raw (preferably unpasturized, sprouted and dehydrated) almonds
    and cashews. Or raw walnuts (most Omega-3 fatty acid). Organic/raw whole milk yogurt plain (I make) or homemade kefir will take away my hunger.

    I am going to pick up some veggie crisps, and to try dry fruit. I love good carbs! :)

    Low fat because some processed foods have high sugars or bad calories in fat.
