While I'm a vegetarian, the rest of my family is not. They do, however, eat vegetarian 80% of the time. Sounds so healthy, right?
But we are snackers. And even vegetarian snacks (like brownies and cookies - I LOVE to bake!!!) are not good in excess. So this month, we are trying our hand at different types of snacks and forgoing the cookies, cakes and candy (even the 100 calorie type).
My criteria for this list was for the snack to have fruit, veggies or non-meat protein and be under 150 calories. I needed something that would fill them up for ballet or acting class so they wouldn't be starving when dinner rolled around.
Here is the list:
1 tbsp PB with 4 club crackers
1 tbsp PB with celery sticks
2 tsp PB with 1/2 apple
1 Egg - hardboiled or scrambled
1 oz box of raisins
1 c blueberries
1 medium pear
1 cup pineapple
2 cups carrots
1 cup baby carrots with 2 tbsp hummus
1/2 cup cooked rice
3 cups cherry tomatoes
4 mini rice cakes
1/2 c frozen orange juice, eaten as a sorbet
2 cups raspberries
1 cup grapes
1/2 medium cantaloupe
15 strawberries with 1/4 cup cool whip lite
5 strawberries and 1 tbsp of chocolate chips
2 lite cheese strings sticks
1 babybel cheese round with 4 club crackers
20 roasted peanuts
60 goldfish crackers
40 classic style pretzel sticks (the small matchstick kind)
1 nature valley granola bar
1/2 bagel
2 sheets of graham crackers
3 cups of air popped popcorn (no salt/butter)
round tortilla chips (amount depends on brand) and 1/2 c all natural mild salsa (40 cal)
1/2 cup fruit juice
1 cup vegetable juice
1/2 c canned mandarin oranges
1 package of instant oatmeal
3 Amy's Cheese Pizza Snacks
1/2 c frozen yogurt
