Healthy snack ideas

Just thought I'd share the snack ideas I received in my Women's Health email this morning...all of them are energizing and combine protein and carbs...just what a snack should do!


Sliced apple with peanut butter (1 tablespoon)
Turkey and tomato on whole-wheat bread (1 slice)
Low-fat cottage cheese and a peach or pear
A hard-boiled egg and a piece of fruit
Almonds (1/3 cup) and dried apricots (1/4 cup)
A yogurt-and-fruit smoothie
Hummus (1/4 cup) and baby carrots
Low-fat yogurt and fresh strawberries
Baked sweet potato with low-fat cottage cheese
Baked tortilla chips (10) and low-fat bean dip (1/2 cup)
Reduced-fat cheese (1 1/2 ounces) and whole-grain crackers (5)
Half a peanut butter and banana sandwich (1 tablespoon peanut butter)
