A toasted whole grain waffle with a TB of almond butter and a few fresh sliced strawberries on it. It's delicious, satisfying and easy.0

Sounds a little crazy but I made low-cal cupcakes. Mix a box of devil's food cake mix with a 15oz can of pumpkin (I used Libby's) and a scoop of chocolate protein powder. The result 138 calorie cupcakes. I usually add that with a serving of Breyer's 1/2 fat vanilla ice cream. It makes a great evening snack. There are TONS of low-cal recipes on hungrygirl.com. I have found so many great snacks and meals and haven't had a single bad recipe yet.0

I often get 1/2 pint packs of berries (raspberries/blueberries, or especially blackberries) when they are on sale at the grocery store. Very refreshing and really low-cal. Or mini-carrots, those really fill you up as well. 1 cup of plain cheerios is only 100 calories. It's a bit dull, but they last you a while!0

I love the 100 calorie Sandwich Thins. The possibilities are endless. I use a bit of Garlic Herb Mayo and a Tomato. Or spray butter, mozzarella and garlic powder open faced in the toaster oven.
My husband loves the Bagel Thins and he makes turkey sandwiches all of the time using them. I put a piece of cheese on it and pop it in the microwave. If you eat meat, you could add a piece of turkey sausage to it.0 -

Two slices of Weight Watchers Raisin Cinnamon bread toasted, topped with one triangle of Laughing Cow cheese - split the cheese between the two slices. Yummy!0

No-Bake Energy Bites
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter)
1/3 cup honey
1 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla
Mix everything together scoop into balls or spread into a small cake pan and cut into bars. These freeze really well too.0 -
How many servings does this make?0

celery with peanut butter or apple slices with peanut butter.
If you don't have a ton of room for the calories of nut butter, you can always swap it with light tuna in water. The entire can is only 100 calories, and it is delicious stuffed into celery (I mix it with garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, S&P first, but any way you swing it is good)0
