Been trying to figure out the snacks in between meals. Does anyone have any suggestions of healthy snacks to eat throughout the day? Simple yet quick and effective things to make, do or buy to take on the road that will help keep me full longer.

    Was gonna say beef jerky and a fruit. Or nuts or string cheese or a hard boiled egg and fruit.

    Celery sticks w/ peanut butter; cocoa-dusted almonds (I buy these in 100-cal packs or else I'll eat way too many); hard-boiled egg; popcorn if I'm really craving chips; greek yogurt cup; handful of pepperoni (if you have time you can bake these until they get crunchy, yummm)

    Fruit is my go-to snack. Mandarin oranges, peaches, cherries...all the fruit!

    This past week, I made up some small sugar-free walnut peanut butter cookies and have been snacking on them, which has been really nice and filling. Some other things I usually do are chopped fruit, air-popped popcorn, tortilla chips and salsa, trail mix/granola, or mini quesadillas with beans, hummus, 1-2 low-calorie veggies, and nutritional yeast.

    I keep a small tub of mixed seeds and dried fruits and nuts in my work bag - for an energy boost between clients etc. I vary the seeds, change around the dried fruits and nuts to keep it fresh. Most recently I have added roasted whole nuts - I had not realised how much nicer they are roasted, nice discovery!. You can do your own in the oven easily…

    A banana is my go to, it'll fill you up enough and doesn't need to be refrigerated so it's pretty simple.

    I like carrot chips (carrots sliced on the bias with a wave edge mandolin) with some kind of dip. Whatever looks good at the store, I like to change it up.

    Grapes….great snack food. One cup of grapes is only 100 cal and they have high water content - make you feel fuller.

    Spinach dip w/reduced fat wheat thins. Make dip w/reduced fat cream cheese and lower fat Best Foods mayo (the jar with the blue lid). Delicious and full of veggies. So good!

    Hard boiled eggs with a little salt. If I have 2 I’m satisfied for a very long time. Cheap, easy, delicious.

    Low fat mozzarella cheese stick or turkey sticks by Chomps. High in protein, low in calories.

    I had about 80 calories left last night and went with a deviled egg (slice a hard boiled egg in half lengthwise, mix yolks with 1 tsp half-fat mayo, add mixture back to whites, eat). Or a bit of deli turkey or roast beef wrapped in a part-skim cheese slice, or a few salted, roasted cashews (6 to be exact; they are 9 g) and a 1/4 square of Baker’s 70% chocolate.

    I am a snack or for sure. I’ve been eating frozen blueberries. I keep string cheese on hand. I Make my yogurt special by putting fresh fruit in it or a 100 cal package of nuts and cranberries.
