Health Snack Options

Browsing around last night, I decided to look for some healthy snack options. I get burned out on string cheese and almonds. I think I will enjoy them a lot more when I can add in some others once in a while.

6 whole-wheat crackers with peanut butter

1 small pear and a small handful almonds

6 ounces of yogurt

2 cups of popcorn

1/2 cup of sugar-free pudding

1/2 cup of no-sugar-added ice cream

1 cup of berries and 1/2 cup of low-fat cottage cheese

1 small protein bar with around 15 grams carbohydrate

1 small apple with peanut butter

1/2 turkey sandwich on whole-wheat bread

Veggies dipped in hummus

1/2 cup yogurt mixed with 1/2 cup cottage cheese

6 whole wheat crackers with laughing cow cheese triangle

Note: By drinking a glass of water when eating a high fiber snack, it alows the fiber to expand keeping you fuller longer.

Here are some examples of some lower (under 15g) carbohydrate snacks:

Handful of almonds, walnuts, or pecans

Celery stalks with peanut butter

String Cheese

1/2 cup of low-fat cottage cheese

Hard boiled egg

Veggies and low-fat dip

Sugar-free jello
