Grapes! I always keep some (usually) green grapes in the fridge for times when I just need a little "something".
I also rely on almonds, I like roasted unsalted, and eat exactly 15 of them for a quick 100 calorie snack as well.
I have also found a recipe that I make every Sunday and keep in the fridge, 1 c quick oats chopped in your food processor, add 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder, and 1 lg banana. I throw in a handful of dried cherries for some extra flavor then pulse and shape into 12 little balls. I often eat one or two before a workout or if Im feeling hungry as they are only 65 calories each and an awesome little snack. I pop 2 of them and 1/2 cup of grapes before a morning workout as well as it is a good boost without a stomach full, enough energy to get through my workout.3 -
I eat a plant based diet and sometimes i just go for a smoothie, I add in cucumber or zucchini for filler but it's very low on calories and I am usually pretty full afterwards. I'll use 1 date to sweeten it but I'll use frozen berries as a fruit. That really helps me and it's about a liter in total to drink so almost feels like a meal but under 250 cals. Good luck!2

*Plain rice cake with a spread of dayia vegan strawberry cream cheese and top it with slices of bananas. I have at least 2 for a snack.
* I also have silk vegan yogurt any flavor , add 2tsp of chia seeds and top it off with a banana or berries
* Last I have air popped popcorn. I have a spray bottle which I use to spray the warm popcorn with olive oil and then I season it with popcorn seasonings.1 -

Freeze your seedless grapes for a sorbet like treat. Frozen watermelon or banana whizzed in the food processor are great too.
My favourite quick low cal savoury snack is vegetable sticks dipped in commercial hummous.1 -

pickled vegetables - just eat them out of the jar!
If you challenge yourself for a few days to stay away from sugary treats, the cravings will disappear.0 -
I am on a 1200 calorie restriction for a week and have found that jicama works wonders for me when I’m hunger. It’s differed, low in calories, and a little sweet. I cut it all up into individual pieces to have ready when I’m hungry. Yum!0

Roasted chickpeas with favorite seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil can be made in toaster oven quickly on bake/toast setting at 350-375 degrees. I'm going to try lemon pepper and ranch flavor sometime0

Nuts are satisfying to me but I have to watch portions since the calories can really add up.
Celery and peanut butter.
Mary’s crackers... made with nuts and seeds.0 -
I up my calories to 1300, instead of 1200 as recommended. (I'm ok with slower weight loss). I eat 4 times a day, approx 325 cal per meal.
Smoothie, fruit, yoghurt, skim millk, protein powder.
2 boiled eggs, cream cheese, 2 Ryvitas, carrot, celery & apple.
Small tuna salad, fetta, olives.
Chicken/fish, mixed veg, quinoa/chickpeas ect
Its working good so far. No need to 'snack'.

This may be a crazy answer, but if I'm pretty close to my next meal I try to skip snacking and just pop in a piece of sugar free gum. Sometimes this is all I need to get me through.2
