    I know it sounds really wierd but a tortilla shell (whole grain) with peanut butter and bananas. It has alot of protein in it and it keeps you full!!

    Hi! I'm a SAHM of 3 (6, 3, 1.5)

    We keep granola bars, string cheese, apples, special k bars, fiber 1 bars on hand at all times :)

    My kids could eat apples dipped in peanut butter 18 times a day haha.

    For breakfast I usually do oatmeal (the real stuff, no quick oats here ewie) with a touch (roughly half a tsp) of brown sugar and a splash of cinnamon.

    Sometimes I'll microwave their apples for 10 seconds with cinnamon (it's relatively low calorie, I think it's roughly 20 per Tablespoon but I never use more than a tsp or so...so like 7? calories)

    I eat a lot of

    Almonds (esp the roasted sort- my favorite is the brown sugar and cinnamon. Not too sweet but yummy)
    Cheese
    Fruit (but only with protein- I get even hungrier otherwise)
    Hummus and carrot sticks
    Rolled up lunchmeat
    Avocado
    Hot dogs- I buy nitrate free, humanely raised ones and boil and dip in ketchup
    Luna Bars are great if you can tolerate that many carbs at once (I can't)

    I'm gluten/egg free, but if I could, I would also eat hardboiled eggs- they're hugely healthy and pretty portable

    I love cheese--it is satisfying to me in small amounts. Gordon Food Service sells several different kinds of cheese in cubes that are only 25-30 calories a piece. Havarti is my favorite. I'll eat a couple of cubes with an apple or a couple Triscuits or just by themselves.

    I like yogurt cups, granola bars, string cheese, special K bars, and fruits and veggies. I take my fruits and veggies once a week and portion them out into sandwich baggies, so I can grab one and go if I need to.
