I am sick of protein shakes, pickles, almonds, and hard boiled eggs! I need snack ideas for the evening when I get hungry before bed. Low calorie please.

    A few pieces of beef jerky (I think they have turkey jerky too) or a laughing cow cheese wedge with a couple of wheat crackers.

    Both my doctor and A&P professor recommend avoiding carbs before bed because of the way your body processes them, which makes me realize my usual late snacks (popcorn, cereal, fruit) are not ideal. I've been meaning to ask how close to bedtime that becomes an issue.

    I have Veri Deli crackers. All the flavours are delish. Most servings are 4 crackers, one of them is 6. I have on its own or with a small piece of cheese.

    Sugar free Jelly is good too, and filling.

    a frozen banana blended with some almond milk to make "ice cream" - you can add anything else you want - peanut butter, walnuts, other fruit, etc.

    sliced up banana or half banana with some chia seeds and a tablespoon of peanut butter.

    Rice cakes are low in calories and they seem to have a similar satisfaction as crisps (potato chips). my fave are the salt n vinegar mini ones in packets, 90 calories a bag, preparation? open, munch, enjoy!!

    Frozen berries blended with a spoon of yoghurt and some almond milk. Under 100 calories for a decent bowl size! I sweeten mine with 0 cal Stevia. I actually prefer it to ice cream. x

    If i want something that tastes like dessert, I'll have cocoa. Two teaspoons of actual cocoa - not hot chocolate powder! - is only about 8 calories. Add milk of your choice. I used to prefer a lot of milk and made the cocoa with half hot milk and half boiled water, but now I'm happy with a much smaller amount. Oftentimes I'll add a couple of teaspoons of cream instead of milk, but whatever works for you!
    If you find the cocoa too bitter, add a little of your favourite sweetener.

    Enjoy!

    Special K Cracker Chips. They taste soooo much better than rice cakes. 110 calories for 27 chips. They make several different flavors such as Southwest Ranch, Cheddar and Sea salt...probably a few more.

    Not my thing, but others have told me to try is celery and peanut butter. or something with peanut butter.


    I love a nice juicy orange for my snacks. I'm addicted.

    One of my favorite evening snacks is light microwavable popcorn. If I want something sweet, I go for fruit.

    Very light buttered popcorn or 100 calories snack packs. I always find myself eating cranberries when I absolutely need something to snack on.
