    One of my favorites is Almonds and Craisins. Very yummy and no sodium! Cottage Cheese is also an excellent low fat source of protein and great to eat with some of those fruits.

    Laughing Cow cheese with veggies or rice cakes (I like Real Foods Rice Thins...23 calories per cake). Greek Yogurt. My local grocery store (Fred Meyer...a Kroger store) has a great high protein, low calorie CarbMaster yogurt in lots of great flavors (60 calories and tons of protein to tide you over). I like a combo of a fruit or veggie and a protein (grapes and string cheese, celery and Laughing Cow, etc.).

    Tapioca Pudding (no sugar added)
    Pretzels and mustard
    Tomato Sandwich
    Slim Jims Snack Sticks

    Sabra Spinach & Artichoke Hummus...eat it with carrots, on a low carb/low cal tortilla folded in half & cut into wedges, or use it in hard boiled egg whites like deviled eggs. I also love pistachios...they take a long time to eat and are good for you! For a real treat, I love to take a half of a cantaloupe and put 1/2 c Edy's slow churned vanilla bean ice cream in it. YUM! If you haven't tried the Special K Multi Grain crackers, they are awesome & are perfect with a wedge of Lite Laughing Cow Swiss Cheese spread on them! I also like to have them with some cottage cheese with raisins & chopped up strawberries in them. I just scoop up the cottage cheese and fruit with them.

    Now there's an interesting idea. It's a little more sugar than I'd like though.

    sorry I forgot to put the sugar free on the hershey's one too... it was suppose to read "...sugar free nesquick or sugar free hershey's..."

    My favorite mid-morning snack at work is lightly salted cashews (1/4 cup only). Afternoon snack is strawberries with low/no fat cool whip topping.

    Two of my favorite snacks right now are the Emerald Cocoa almonds. It is coated with cocoa powder so it gives you a sweet/salty combo and also a cheddar rice cake topped with 1 tablespoon of hummus. I like the roasted red pepper Sabra brand.

    Yummy!
