My new fave snack...and healthy too!

These are the bomb! They have a light dusting of cocoa powder on them, just enough to satisfy my chocolate craving while still on a diet. Yum!

Re: My new fave snack...and healthy too!

  • Those look delicious! :)

    What are you cutting back on in your diet? Calories, carbs, gluten?

    Really just trying to cut back on the high fat, higher calorie junk. I've also been trying to eat smaller portions and have cut out sodas completely.

    I cut out sodas completely about a month ago, and I recently found that I *love* this Cranberry Green Tea that they carry at Trader Joes (Uptown). It's really sweet, so it doesn't need any sugar. That tea, and downing a bunch of dried cranberries, has really helped me get through those days where I have a major sweet tooth.

    It sounds like you have a great plan set up, good luck! :)

    Unfortunately, I can't drink tea. I wish I could cuz I love cranberry and I'm sure the cranberry green tea would be much healthier for me than hot chocolate :)

  • Thanks, I'm always on the lookout for good snacks. My pants buttons seem to keep getting further and further away from each other :(
  • Oh, I'm so glad you posted the tea rec, AT, I'm planning to go to TJ's during my lunch break today so I'll have to see if I can find it. I've been drinking coffee (with sugar & creamer) too often. I'm always hesitant to pick a random tea b/c most of the time I don't like them, but maybe I'll like that one with a squeeze of honey.

    It's pretty damn tasty... the box is big and green and says "Trader Joe's Organic Cranberry Green Tea with whole leaf tea, flowers, fruits and spices. 15 biodegradable tea bags."

    One of my favorite parts is the biodegradable tea bags... they look like silk so I think they're pretty. You can pat me on the head if you'd like lol.

  • Those almonds are tasty!  I've got some in my pantry right now!
  • I freaking LOVE those almonds.
  • I need to get more  healthy snack habits.  I try, and fail miserably.  I just bought some blueberries to snack on, my DH bought double stuff oreos.  Guess which one I've been eating.  Embarrassed
