"Healthy" Snacks

What is your favorite "healthy" snack??  I'm getting bored with my current menu for morning and afternoon snacks but I'm a super picky eater meaning veggies, nuts, and granola don't do it for me.  I'm big on apples and yogurt, cheese and crackers, and even some peanut butter, but of course those combos are getting old quickly.  Anyone have any favorite suggestions??

Re: "Healthy" Snacks

  • Carrots and Garlic Hummus is one of my favorites. I'm not a huge "Veggies are a great snack" kinda girl either, but you do what ya gotta do, ya know?

    I get bored really easily with healthy snacks.  I find that if I stick to 1 portion size of an unhealthy snack then it really isn't that bad and fits into my diet just fine.

    Chips and salsa are my 'go to' snack, I just make sure to count out the 11 or 14 chips (however many it is in a serving) and then put the bag away.
