    Kale chips. Easy to make and good for you.
    Baked garbanzo beans. You season them and cook them in the oven until crunchy
    Sweet potato chips
    Carrot chips are great too if you have a mandolin to cut them nice and thin and then bake till crunchy.

    What all do you put on your garbanzo beans? How do you cook them? Thanks

    I'm curious about the garbanzo beans as well ~ Love them, so I am always looking for new ways to prepare them!!! Also love sweet potato chips, the Good Health Natural Foods Kettle style ones with sea salt are awesome!!!!!

    My favorite thing to eat for a snack is cinnamon roll flavored oatmeal. It tastes delicious, and is high in fiber and protein. And it cures my sweet tooth, also.

    all great ideas - also you might just want to try drinking some water first to see whether you're hungry for food or just dehydrated!

    I like Ryvita crsipbreads, Carr's Cheese melts and Speculoos biscuits! Almonds are good - you only need a few to feel satiated!

    Good luck!

    if you're looking for seriously low calorie and pretty filling...try raw celery dipped in yellow mustard. Sometimes I even add a packet of Equal to my mustard to give it the 'honey mustard' taste:)

    i agree. just bought it this week.
  • wow lots of great ideas! i like having a bowl of oatmeal if i'm hungry between meals. 1/2 cup (dry, before cooking) with cinnamon and a packet of splenda is only 150 cals and VERY filling

    Chobani 0% plain yogurt : 100 calories, 7g carbs, 0g fat, 18g protein, 0g fiber, 80mg sodium

    You can add your favorite fruit to it to make it a little tastier.
  • Homemade Low Calorie Ice Cream Sandwiches

    Low Fat Honey Graham Crackers
    Fat Free Cool Whip

    (you can even add your favorite fruit to it ... like sliced strawberries)

    Thaw the cool whip in the counter until it gets soft. You don't want it watery, just soft enough to be able to scoop onto the sandwiches.
    Break the graham cracker in half, then spoon on 1-2 tablespoons of cool whip. Place the other half on top and gently squeeze down to distribute the filling.

    Place on a cookie sheet lined with wax or parchment paper. Pop in the freezer until frozen solid, then remove and wrap each individually in Cling Wrap. Freezing them first before wrapping will ensure that they keep their shape.

    When I feel like a chocolate bar, I'll have a protein bar instead. Clif builders are pretty good at 270 calories.

    I'll cut up pitas or tortilla, bake them and have salsa with it. Might be 250 cals but that can be reduced with whatever tortillas you use.

    Microwave a potato and put salsa on it. Low cal and filling.

    I mixed up 3/4 cup canned pumpkin with SF white chocolate pudding powder (1/4 dry package) - thin with a bit of milk if you like. Top with 3 tbsp cool whip light for a 135 calorie treat! Add spice if you like. It's a nice size bowl full.
