    Hey there I was wondering if anyone has any recipe ideas for hamburger meat? I would like to make something for dinner that is good for us but tastes good as well.

    Loving this thread!

    Mine's Vanilla yogurt with cereal (cheerios, coco puffs, etc) mixed in.

    Sweet with a nice crunch to it.

    I think I saw it on here

    Half a graham cracker
    Spread light cream cheese on top
    Spread reduced sugar strawberry jelly on top of that

    Voila! You have mini cheesecakes

    I never thought of that! And I love cheesecake, I'm gonna have to try this!

    Love, love, LOVE all these! I like how I can make a bunch on Sunday and then have them for quick, healthy snacks throughout the week. Thanks for the great idea!

    Almond-Poppy Crackers with Cottage Cheese and Honey

    Intensely flavored almond flour gives these poppy crackers a buttery crispness, along with a measure of protein, calcium, vitamin E, and folic acid.

    Yield
    Makes 1 dozen
    Serves 6

    Ingredients

    For The Crackers:
    1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour (bobsredmill.com)
    1 tablespoon poppy seeds
    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
    1 large egg white, lightly beaten

    For The Topping:
    3/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese
    1/4 cup honey
    Directions
    make the crackers:

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, poppy seeds, oil, salt, and egg white. Transfer mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with parchment; roll out dough to an 8-by-12-inch rectangle. Uncover, and cut into twelve 2-by-4-inch crackers using a paring knife. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool.

    make the topping:

    Pulse cottage cheese in a food processor until smooth. Spread 1 tablespoon onto each cracker, and drizzle each with 1 teaspoon honey.

    Cook's Note

    An unrimmed baking sheet makes it easier to roll the dough. Crackers can be stored at room temperature for up to one week.

    Mix fat free cottage cheese and fat free sour cream (16 oz containers each) with 1 packet of the hidden valley ranch dressing mix, and use it to dip fresh veggies in. Delicious and low calorie

    FOUND: SNACK WITH VERY LITTLE SUGAR! Tried something new today; Quaker Stila Oat Clusters Bits. I had the Cranberry & Yogurt and it was nice! 1 package is 90 kcal with only 5g of sugar.

    1 full graham cracker w/ Biscoff spread across it--its less than 100 calories and it gives you the crunch most snacks require, the creamy texture of the Biscoff has a sweet and somewhat sharp taste to it--its basically a gingerbread spread....so yummy

    For the sweet tooth: 1 sheet chocolate graham cracker, break in half , put 2 tbsp fat free cool whip between and freeze. Kinda like ice cream sandwich, only 90 calories. If you can find the reduced fat chocolate graham crackers, less calories than that.

    Get a low fat yoghurt, toss the contents into a bowl ( a 1 portioned yoghurt, like activia) and slice a banana or whatever fruit you desire into that and you have a delicious, simple, low calorie desert!

    I love veggies with ranch dip, but instead of regular ranch I mix powdered ranch dressing mix into plain greek yogurt. Tastes awesome, way less calories, and way more protein!

    That's a great idea with the ranch! I can do without a lot of things but NOT MY RANCH. I'm going to give this a try! How much of the packet do you mix in or are you using a larger container of yogurt and the whole packet of mix?

    Make your own Peanut butter if you can not find a better solution at the store.

    I use my ninja

    10 oz unsalted peanuts
    1/3 cup peanut oil
    2 Tbls honey

    process peanuts untill thick
    slowly add peanut oil until combined
    slowly add honey while processing at the end.
