    Home made hummus is world's above the commercial. Make sure the first taste is worth it.

    It always surprises me when people say they haven't tried hummus. Maybe depends on where you live?

    I agree with popcorn, and pretzels and Wheat Thins crackers are also good with hummus. You could melt a few bittersweet dark chocolate chips in a bowl in the microwave, then dip slices of apple in the chocolate and roll the dipped end in oatmeal or chopped nuts. Simple can be good, too. I love cheese toast, and it is super easy. Sometimes I do a mini meal, such as a half roast beef sandwich with a half cup (or cup, depending on your calorie goals) of fruit like melon or pineapple. Depending on where you are snacking, you could just do a bowl of cereal with nuts and fruit or scrambled eggs and toast. Don't let the time of day affect what you eat. If you want a slice of leftover pizza or a sandwich for breakfast, then eat it. So in that sense, snacks don't always have to be "typical" snack foods. Sometimes my snack is a taco salad or nachos with black eyed peas or beans on them. If you are snacking at work and have access to a microwave or fridge, you can still make yummy things if you plan ahead and do all your measuring and counting beforehand.

    Hummus for me too! Make sure you get a flavored kind though. I like garlic or roasted veggie.
