Seriously Snacking Suggestions
Finding healthy snack options can be hard, especially if you need to grab and go quickly. Here are some snack suggestions that I found on thebiggestloser.com, that are easy to make, have 150 calories or less and are protein packed!
1. Edamame (1/2 cup), buy frozen and follow cooking instructions (80 calories)
2. 5 celery stalks (4" long) and 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese (95 calories)
3. 1 large dill pickle and 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter (125 calories)
4. WASA Rye Crispbread (1 cracker) with 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese (115 calories)
5. Two slices turkey breast lunch meat rolled with 2 teaspoons cranberry jelly (100 calories)
6. Thinly sliced medium apple or pear with 1 ounce of cheese (150 calories)
7. Shrimp cocktail, 12 small shrimp with ¼ cup cocktail sauce (100 calories)
8. 1/4 can tuna with 1/4 cup non-fat plain yogurt and 1 miniature box of raisins (125 calories)
9. Cottage cheese, 1/2 cup low-fat + 1/3 cup canned pineapple (120 calories)
10. Veggie burger, soy-based, + 2 pickle slices and 1 tablespoon of mustard (110 calories)

Don't get me wrong-- I love snacking. I love eating period. But sometimes I feel that snacking just opens up your appetite and you end up snacking more than you should have.
