Healthy Snack Ideas


Snacking doesn't have to be an unhealthy habit.

It's not unusual to get hungry between meals - particularly if you have a long stretch in between.

The key is planning ahead to make sure you have some healthy foods available, and ideally, you should combine some protein with a little carbohydrate to fill you up and keep you going.

A protein-enriched beverage, a piece of string cheese and a piece of fruit, or a small carton of yogurt with a few low-fat crackers should do the trick.


HERE ARE SOME SNACK IDEAS-ALL UNDER 100 CALORIES:

- Nonfat latte made with nonfat milk or soy milk
- Mini pita bread with a quarter of an avocado
- Herbalife® Creamy Chicken Soup Mix
- Herbalife® Peach Mango or Wild Berry Beverage Mix
- Two rice cakes with one wedge light cheese
- One 100-calorie pudding cup
- ½ cup nonfat cottage cheese with ½ cup blueberries
- 1 ounce turkey jerky with one slice rye cracker
- One individual carton light nonfat yogurt with 1 tablespoon raisins
- Toasted whole-grain waffle with a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar
- One stick mozzarella cheese with one sesame breadstick
- ¾ cup tomato soup made with nonfat milk
- Three hard-cooked egg whites mashed with a little Dijon mustard and a sliced tomato
- 15 baby carrots with 2 tablespoons fat-free ranch dressing
- 12 ounces tomato juice
- 10 soy crisps with a small peach
- One frozen fruit bar
- 1 cup whole strawberries with 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup

There you go.... It is not that bad.. is it?
You don't need to munch on celery sticks all day.
