Sweet Potato Hummus with cucumber is my new favorite snack!! It has a bit of kick to it , something about it reminds me of a meal I have had at an Indian resturant.
Holy COW!
Sweet Potato + Hummus = dream come true!
I just looked up a recipe for it and I'm going to make it this week! Thanks for the tip!!0 -
Lowfat iced latte--use your leftover morning coffe, add skim milk and your favorite sweetener, and lots of crushed ice.
Not only is it yummy, and has a bit of calcium, I'm using leftovers to make something for almost free that would cost $2-$4 dollars at a coffee shop!0 -

Roasted and spiced chickpeas (garbanzo beans)! Drain a tin of chickpeas and pat dry, roast as they are until crunchy. While they are in the oven, mix some of your favourite spices (chili, cumin, corriander, etc.) with a bit of olive oil, then tip the hot beans in a give them a good coating before making them vanish!
What temp do you roast them at and for how long?0 -
Also, my snack (and this is really weird) I get pancakes and put mustard on them :P You get a slightly sweet and slightly spicy mix and it's awesome0

my housemates think it's really weird,but I LOVE a banana cut in half longways and then half short-ways filled with peanut butter: like a pb sandwich but with banana instead of bread!
I made these a few years ago when my niece and nephew moved in with us. It was a great way to get them to eat some fruit, and they love them. It is a frequent request by my niece especially for a non-school lunch. We call them "peanut butter and banana sandwiches" since that is basically what they are. Mmmmmm.....I might have to have one of these tonight.0 -
Here's another twist to "ants on a log": celery, with a laughing cow swiss cheese wedge and craisins! It's delish!
I like the sound of this!
That's a great idea! Sounds delicious!0 -

(Something Salty): Baked Chick Peas
19 0z. can of Chick Peas (strained, rinsed, patted dry with a paper towel)
Olive Oil Spray
Salt
1/4 tsp Cayenne
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp Oregano
Set oven to 450f and bake 30-35 minutes. Spray with olive oil (when done cooking), top with seasonings
I ate an entire can of baked chick peas earlier (; I think they're a great substitution for chips or crackers. Feel free to tweak the seasonings(: I like spicy things so I typically add more Cayenne
(Something Sweet): Frozen Yogurt
Cover a plate/tray with tin foil. Pour your favorite yogurt into a Ziploc bag. Cut a tip off of the bag and make yogurt 'dots' all over until you've used all the yogurt up. Freeze 45 minutes.
I also ate this today(; (lol eat a *lot* of snacks!) I like this because it's less calories than ice cream but still satisfies(:
Hope these helped!!!0
