Favorite low cal/fat snacks
| Tue, 07-24-2007 - 11:55am |
Looking for new recipes to boost my weight loss, and I am willing to try anything.
My favorite snack is:
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup Honey Nut Cheerios
1/2 cup fruit
Sounds gross, but is wonderful and filling.
Looking forward to hearing and trying your ideas.

Right now I'm loving a morning smoothie!
1/2 cup low fat vanilla yogurt
1 cup 1% milk
2 tsp natural peanut butter
1 cup fozen strawberries (about 7 indvidual strawberries)
6 ice cubes
Makes 2 servings (186 calories per serving)
I'm trying to increase protien so here's one I just made today
1/2 c fat free cottage cheese
1/4 c orange juice (more or less depending on how well you like cottage cheese)
blend to get rid of the chunks
add 1 carton yogurt (I used lime)
a few ice cubes
It's not real scientific, but I was able to get cottage cheese in me : 0
My husband likes cottage cheese so he just mixes yogurt and cottage cheese for a body for life snack.
I love threads like this!!
I still love apple & peanut butter which was an idea I saw here ages ago on this board.
And fat free pudding or sugar free pudding (chocolate) with sliced strawberries for a low cal/fat dessert!
I make a similar snack to yours, only I use Kashi Go Lean Crunch instead of Cheerios. If I want something sweet I'll often have a Fiber One oats and chocolate chip granola bar or a Weight Watchers toffee crunch ice cream bar.
I also have kind of an odd snack for the evenings when I don't really want sweets. I eat Nature's Own high fiber bread (5 g fiber and 50 cal/slice) with some margarine or toasted with a little feta melted on it.
That actually sounds really good!!
I like the "apple/peanut butter" combo too!
A good sweet treat from SBD that I like is:
YUM what great ideas!!!!!

I just found this website with some good ideas:

(I can't wait to try the pudding in an ice cream cone)
That is a fabulous site!! Thank you so much for posting!! I love those ideas!
I have tried the frozen yogurt tubes, and I really like them as long as I get a good flavor, but I'm definitely going to use some of those other ideas - first up is the cranberries on the peanut butter with celery!
