    I frequently substitute applesauce for oil in recipes and they turn out really delicious. Substitute equal parts--applesauce for oil.

    Easy. Air popped popcorn. Sometimes with butter and salt, sometimes with honey and pepper, but my latest that I got online is with 10 pecans broken up and 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese. Delish!!! :bigsmile:

    Core an apple and put it in a microwave safe container. Put about a tablespoon of water, cinnamon, squirt of honey or agave. Cover and microwave for 2 minutes. Tastes like apple pie filling.

    Also love plain fat free Greek yogurt topped with a tablespoon of Craisins, tablespoon of sliced almonds, and a quick squirt of agave. Like a parfait!

    Smoothie: Blend 1 cup chocolate soy milk, 1 overripe banana, 1 cup ice, 1 Tbsp agave nectar and 1 cup fresh spinach. Good and simple.

    Fiber one nutty bars: fiber one cereal, natural peanut butter and agave nectar. Mix in bowl and form a ball or rectangle on wax paper. Refrigerate to mold. Great source of fiber, good fats.

    I don't know if any of you like Grippos Barbeque chips? SO DELICIOUS! But too many points for my weight watchers diet.. so I buy Lays Light ruffle chips and a bottle of Grippos barbeque spice put it on them and it's like half the points and just as good :)

    Grippos: Lays w/ Grippos spice:
    Calories- 140 Calories: 70 +20
    Fats- 8 Fats: 0
    Carbs-16 Carbs: 17+4
    Fiber-1 Fiber:1
    Protein-2 Protein:2

    This is an awesome idea! I love Grippos. They're the only chips I'll eat, but find there's too many calories in just a few chips. I'll have to give this a try.

    Finally some different ideas! Thank you to everyone who posted such great ideas. :)

    My latest find is ginger chews. They come in a variety of flavors - ginger, orange, mango, peanut, spicy apple, etc.
    I LOVE the peanut ones, 2 for 40 calories. Also a big fan of the orange flavor.

    I'm also tempted to get some plain greek yogurt (which I can't stand) and make it friendlier with a shot of sugar free chocolate syrup and perhaps a tbsp of peanut butter.

    WOW-- that sounds like something I can do!!!! I have to look for the cracker chips and cheese!!
    Laughing cow french onion cheese wedge 35 calories with Pepperidge Farms Multigrain Cracker Chips (25 for 130 calories)

    Low fat graham Cracker (one plank is 70 calories) One tablespoon of Nutella spread on it (100 calories) If I have a lot left on my calories for the day I have 2 like that.

    Watermelon
    Apples (red delicious)
    Bananas
    pistacio nuts
