Frozen fruit... fresh fruit or you own homemade snack that you make with organic and clean ingredients pop corn is great..
Sugar is almost impossible to get around.. Vegtables in the cutt up form with Organic peanut butter is great and yogurts
but they arent appealing unless u cutt them and makem look yummy.. haha..0 -

Hi there. I like the vitamuffin tops sugar free chocolate. They taste like cake. I also like celery with salsa, rice cakes, and pickles. Here is a recipe from another MFPer that is filling because of the protein but also a little bit sweet.
Egg White Oatmeal Bars
Ingredients:
6-8 egg whites
1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats, oatmeal, or barley flakes
2 packets Stevia, Truvia or Xylitol (your choice of sweetener)
Cinnamon
½ cup blueberries or 1 banana (optional)
With bananas they are only 130 calories.
Directions:
Blend egg whites, fruit (if desired), sweetener, and oats.
Pour into 9-inch pan already sprayed with Pam nonstick spray, making sure it spreads evenly (use a knife).
Bake for 13-15 minutes at 350 degrees. Sprinkle cinnamon on top. Makes 4 bars.0 -
What works for me are snacks with high protein:
Apples or celery w/Natural Peanut Butter
Soy Nuts
Protein Bars
Protein Shakes
String Cheese
Good luck!0 -
Popcorn. I love popcorn.0

I go for savoury and protein in my snacks:
hard boiled egg
cheese
nuts
roast soy beans0 -
Several of you listed popcorn as a good snack...just curious, what kind do you use and is it microwave or air popped or what? I know the movie popcorn at the theater is terrible for you.... Just need some new ideas :0) Thanks so much!0

I'm an air popped convert. Seem to get a lot more for the calories, plus I get to decide what goes on it.0 -
