Just thought I'd share with other dieters out there...I have such a sweet tooth its not even funny :) I took three jumbo strawberries, a TB of World Market Vanilla Hazelnut spread (you can use Nutella) and dipped 'em...talk about delish! A good way to squeeze in some cals if you need to and have it still be sorta "healthy" :D oh...130 cals!

    Speaking of spreads that satisfy the sweet tooth, have you ever tried sunflower seed butter? Trader Joe's has it for $3.99. And it. Is. AMAZING. Blows peanut butter out of the water. It has less saturated fat than PB, and sunflower seeds are the most nutrient-dense food in the nut category on the ANDI scale. I HIGHLY recommend it!

    I cam to the boards for some snack tips and these are fantastic. I came home drunk last night and ate tacos. I'm headed to Trader Joe's now so hopefully the next late night pillaging of my kitchen will turn up these healthier snacks!

    Another thing to try with Strawberries:
    Make a "dip" with 3 TBSP light sour cream mixed with 1 or 2 tsp of Splenda Brown Sugar (or reg if you are anti-splenda :)

    Really good!
