What are YOUR favorite snacks?

alchris

Yes, for you!  And other than fresh fruit, since I've got that covered.

When we don't have any fruit, I have the hardest time deciding what to have, and I usually end up eating trail mix or a Luna bar or the like.  Sometimes we have sugar snap peas or carrots and I'll eat them straight or with hummus.  I used to keep yogurt on hand but I haven't bought any in a few weeks.

Otherwise, I eat something naughty, or nothing at all.  And I'm looking for other ideas.

I adore fruit but little Ms. Pac Man here tends to eat it all up and I'm stuck more often than I'd like to be.

And yes, I'm hungry now, so answer quickly, LOL.  Just kidding...sort of.   Thank you!

ETA: I forgot about my Trader Joe's kettle corn -- love!  It's been my go to for most of this year.  I don't know how I left that out...it's so brainless, perhaps? :P

I like pretzels, pita chips, grapes, chips and salsa.  Wash it down with a coke zero = I'm golden

Entenmann's cheese and raspberry danish

or 

salt and vinegar chips. 

Depends if I want sweet or salty

Lately, Luna bars all the way. I eat like 2 a day! (Now that I'm done with childbearing I don't care about the soy, but before that I avoided all soy products since I began TTC so I missed them!). Otherwise, other snack bars like nutrigrain bars, Special K bars, etc.

Also a big fan of chips and salsa - the real mexican chips, not tostitos. And I snack on string cheese a lot.

As I type this I'm pumping, bumping and eating bbq chips and a caffeine free coke. This is the life...

Lately I'm completely smitten with yogurt parfaits. I buy the dannon light and fit vanilla yogurt (seriously I think it's the best), and put in blueberries, strawberries (or whatever fruit) and yummy granola. I have one a day. I'm sure I'll be sick of them someday but I just love them, and they're healthy.

Also loving these nut/granola cluster things I recently discovered.

vanilla or greek yogurt with raspberries and blue berries, Kashi bar, fruit or veggies, string cheese, glass of chocolate milk.

These days, I am kind of limited in what I can eat, but I've been munching on pecans, pistachios, peanuts, cheese sticks, cheese and crackers, peanut butter and cracker with pickles...that's about it.

Before GD, one of my favorite afternoon snacks was chips and salsa.

Wait do you seriously take a cracker, put peanut butter on it and then a pickle on top or pickle on the side?   That's an interesting snack.

I also love carrots and hummus (I get the kalamata/artichoke hummus - yum!).  Also, cheese (really any kind, I could it instead of a meal) and crackers, almonds (either plain or with greek yogurt and a little bit of honey), tabouleh and crackers.  I also PPH popcorn but I really like the buttery, greasy stuff so try not to snack on that too much.

I eat a lot of nutty granola bars...like the Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Peanut bar I just had a few minutes ago.

If I'm really hungry and on the go (or can't come up with anything), I love Odwalla's Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip protein bar. Any protein bar needs a big glass of water with it, too.

I used to be all about chips/pretzels and Coke, but I almost never eat that anymore. I still eat pretzels but pair them with Nutella. In college I would eat a ton of chips and salsa and call it lunch. Oy.

I also love some DKB (Dave's Killer Bread -- only west coast, I think...Have you tried it???) with just about anything -- chocolate peanut butter, Nutella, with butter, garlic, and cheese, with butter, cinnamon, and sugar, or just with plain butter!

I often also steal one of DS1's cheddar cheese sticks.

Thank you so much everyone!  At risk of being dorky, great food for thought, tee hee!  I appreciate it!
