I put cinnamon in the snack pack (to be fair I did not like it without cinnamon), and the cinnamon did not magically turn it into cinnabon frosting (not even remotely close).
I tried (from another thread) putting sugar free jello into yogurt. Nope...gross for me. I guess I can use the rest to make some jello. Not gonna experiment with this stuff anymore. I'm not fancy this way. I'll be fancy in other ways.0 -
Graham crackers and lemon greek yogurt tastes like lemon meringue pie.
That is all.

If you're looking for something sweet just add 2 little greek yogurt containers ( small ones) to fat free cool whip MIX and put it in the refrigerator for 4 hours then eat0

You could make cauliflower magically taste like pizza. I believe in you.0 -

Half a serving of ice cream over a heated Vitatop makes for an awesome sundae for less than 200 cals.0

Steel cut oats. Added maple syrup and butter to it so it could taste better.

I put PB2 in strawberry Greek yogurt. Tastes like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Yum!0

I love to put fresh basil leaves on my wafer thin 6 calorie crackers and laughing cow cheese. It's unbelievable how good it is. Regardless of what I am eating I take the time to plate it really well. I even have some nice specialty plates I picked up super cheap at the thrift store. So even if I'm just having a sliced apple I fan it out on an exquisite dessert plate and drizzle it lightly with caramel or all place assorted sliced vegetables on a chilled salad plate and use a tiny lotus bowl for my mango citrus dressing. Even at the office a keep a complete place setting of platinum trimmed china, charger, place mat, water goblet, silverware, and a cloth napkin. I may heat something up in the microwave using the container I brought it in but I won't just eat it with a plastic fork out of a storage container. Taking the time to arrange everything I eat as if I were at a 5-star restaurant makes my servings seem more satisfying and filling. Even salads are more inviting on my chilled glass plate that looks like a bushy tree. My tiny snack placed on the shell shaped appetizer plate looks amazing too. Pairing it with a large water goblet filled with fruit infused water makes me feel as if I'm at a relaxing brunch with dear friends.0

I was just looking for things like this (ways to make the ordinary better), and am going to Publix right now to get some dang cool whip and cinnamon grahams! Great topic!
p.s. I found this earlier today, it is 88 snacks under 100 calories, but what I liked about it was most of them are REAL foods (cheeses, etc.): http://greatist.com/health/88-unexpected-snacks-under-100-calories0 -
Great ideas.0

I tried the Cookie Dough yogurt recipe before & it tasted nothing like cookie dough. Sure it tasted good, but just not the same.0 -
I'm eating that RIGHT this second (the cookie dough thing)... I added chocolate chips and it is pretty good0

Ok, got the caramel pudding snack pack (60 calories) and crushed some Maldon salt flakes on top... now THAT's good!0

That's a great idea. I've been slowly collecting some great dishes for a purpose similar to this. For example, I now have an amazing blue stoneware bowl specifically for very large salads. I'm sure it's meant to be a small serving bowl, but it's now my salad bowl.0 -

That is amazing! Kudos to you for doing all of that! I am not a fancy person in any way and wouldn't even know what a nice place setting looked like if it hit me in the face, so I absolutely don't mind eating out of tupperware (I actually love tupperware and buying new tupperware) or off our 10 year old chipped plates at home, but I think it's awesome that you take so much time to dedicate to placing your food before you eat.0 -
I tried a recipe I saw on Pinterest & used Funfetti Cake Mix (43 grams), some Lite Cool Whip, and some Vanilla Yogurt & made a dip. It actually didn't taste bad. I made more of a single serving size, but you can also make a batch & figure out the calories for each serving.0

I incorporate some kind of nut to my fruit snacks, e.g. walnuts on homemade dairy free avocado ice cream, peanut butter on bananas, walnuts on kiwi/apple/mango fruit salad...it adds to the texture and makes the meal more filling....

For the cool whip/ graham cracker ice cream sandwich, add in some canned pumpkin, along with cinnamon and/or nutmeg. Tastes like pumpkin pie. I make a bunch at once and freeze them in waxed paper so that I don't waste the canned pumpkin.0

A few...
I like to add a little cinnamon, ginger or turmeric to my green/fruit smoothies. I also adding cinnamon and walnuts to my oatmeal. I need to think of other ways to add cinnamon into foods. It's so good for you.
I like adding a tbs of raisins and raw pepita seeds to savory things like soups and beans. I like that hint of sweet from the raisins and the crunch from the seeds.
I like to roast veggies, like sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts, broccoli, carrots, etc., and then keep them in the fridge. Throughout the week I'll add them to sandwiches, soups, salads or beans for the added flavor, or I'll just snack on them as is.
I like adding almonds or pecans to my smoothies. Gives it a slight nutty taste, and adds some good fats to the drink.
I like using tzatziki or baba ganoush for a raw veggie dip or sandwich condiment.
I was recently surprised to find I like apple slices with peanut butter. I love celery and peanut butter, but never thought about apples.0 -
