That takes minutes to prepare.

Not sandwich's.

Something different.

I have one, but I need more ideas.

Take 2-3 slices of yellow American cheese. Cut them up to pieces (by hand). Place in bowl. Add in just a little bit of milk, so that the cheese pieces are not totally drowned by the milk. Add picante sauce. Microwave for 1-2 minutes. Mix sauce. Eat with nachos.

Voila!

Any other really easy snack ideas?

dutch_paki

That doesnt really sound healthy you know

Anyway, I love to make fruit salads The easy ones
1 apple
1 banana
1 orange
cut them into small bits n slices and mix them up. Add a little bit of orange juice and voila.

Or yoghurt with a little bit of hot honey
Put yoghurt in a bowl, and add a little bit of warm honey. That is soo darn good

I agree with dutch_paki...nothing beats a good fruit salad for a healthy snack. I am always on yogurt or fat free cottage cheese. You can also try garonola with rasberries and blueberries and yogurt.

Take some grapes out of the fridge...rinse them well and enjoy! That's my favorite snack

And nothing beats granola and yogurt with fresh fruit!!!!

I love eating frozen grapes with low fat cottage cheese..I often make sctambled egg whites for snack.

You can buy the fat/sugar free instant pudding and have it ready in less than 10 minutes.

There is rice cakes, sugar free popsicles/fudgesicles.

more to come....lol

I get these veggie mix packs from the grocery store; they have sweet baby carrots, broccoli and cauliflower (some of them have green beans too), you don't have to get the pack, just get everything separate & cut 'em yourself. Pop them in microwave for a minute or two. They will be steaming hot. Sprinkle black pepper and then sprinkle the Cheddar mozzarella cheese mix as much as you want. Put 'em back in the microwave for 15-30 seconds if you don't see the cheese melting.

Its a VERY healthy snack because its low carb and desis get all the carb they need from the roti and chawal they eat everyday. No salt because cheese has some sodium and too much sodium isn't good for you.

We also keep these frozen veggie (Chinese) rolls in the freezer and bake them if we want to get fancy with the evening chai.

I love having home made hummus(cos u can control what goes in) with veggie sticks as a healthy snack.

aaish

sometimes when i want to give some thing quick t o my kids i apply pizza sause on a bread slice and sprinkle little mozarella cheese on it and grill it in oven for 3,5 min.my kido like this so much.

Grilled veggies take a little longer but are also yummy! Just slice up some eggplant, potato, carrots and whatever else you like. Drizzle with olive oil, some salt/pepper and bake for 15 minutes on high heat.....absolutely yummy with noodles or a side dish or even as is.

Or just keep a bag of mixed greens on hand, and pour into a bowl and enjoy with favorite low fat dressing

Good thread PCG. I hope others can share more ideas. I snack on almonds and some other stuff thats not healthy so looking for more suggestions.

My healthy snack usually fulfills my cravings for strawberry short cake. I use reduced fat cottage cheese, cut up some strawberrys - mix the two together - put them on top of a toastd english muffin and the final touch is honey...wonderful breakfast item!!

you can eat peanut butter with celery sticks, low fat wheat crackers and stuff. It's pretty filling

Zabardast

A mango...

GummyBear

I like to cut up an apple and have that with a little bit of cashew butter (maybe a tsp- believe me the favour goes a long way)

Stringless Snap Snow Peas are another satisfying snack if u like crunch

Edmame - steamed with a little salt (YUM!!!)

Smoothies- Frozen Fruit, Fat Free Flavoured Yogurt, and OJ

I also love having cotage cheese with cut up fruit and a little bit of balsamic vinegar to give it some tang....

guacamole- I have a great recipe that is very low fat, I can post it if anyone is interested... with home made pita chips.

CareBear

Grate an apple and a carrot, sprinkle some salt, pepper, and a bit of lemon juice. It's yummy!

Zabardast
