Help with snack ideas

I feel like I am feeding Halle the same things all the time.  I am looking for new snack ideas - pleases share your favorites!

Unfortunately, they have to be dairy, nut, and banana free.

Re: Help with snack ideas

  • Mostly, Tatum snacks on fruit.  We try to get lots of different kinds of fruit, but we're creatures of habit, and she tends to have a lot of apples, mangoes, nectarines, peaches, grapes and bananas.

    Also, Puffs or some kind of dry cereal, like Cheerios.

    That's about it for snacks, though.  She really doesn't have a lot of snacks.

    Oh!  And I get pouches for when we're out and about, and sometimes she might have one of those for a snack on the go (like, while we're walking through the grocery store).

    I use pouches very often if we're out.  They distract him and keep him full.  We are also very boring in the snack department at home.

    Puffs, cheerios, goldfish crackers, pieces of fruit are our norm.  I know daycare does animal crackers, goldfish, graham crackers, and some others I'm forgetting.

    I picked him up some cinnamon crackers (Gerber) at Target yesterday, they're really yummy lol.

  • Fruit (usually fruit cups with the juice drained out), Kix, graham crackers, Teddy Grahams, animal grackers, wheat thins, fruit bars (the Gerber ones), cereal bars (the Gerber ones), cheez-its, goldfish crackers.

    My LO hates Cheerios.

  • DS loves fruit... espeically peaches and kiwi. The freeze-dried fruit from Gerber is nice on-the-go... healthy but not too messy.

    Cheerios are a staple in our house too... along with teddy grahams & goldfish crackers.

    Fruit, cheerios, Kix, graham crackers.

    What are you giving her now?

    That would have been helpful info, hey?  I swear I lost my brain somewhere along the way.  Lol.

    Generally she gets fruit, crackers - often with hummus spread, coconut yogurt, Cheerios, or puffs.  I am trying to figure out fatty and/or protein filled snacks as well.  She is tiny and eats a ton ...

    How about greek yogurt?  It's J's newest favorite food, he eats about 75% of the container with dinner.  Packed with protein.

  • What about tofu?

  • Hummus with veggies? Bo Loves cucumber

    Veggie Sticks? They are like chips but veggie flavor

    pears and avacado slices

    Olives

    Steamed edamame

    whole wheat crackers with fruit puree If you have a costco they sell peeled mango slices...It is super easy to puree them and put it on a cracker or piece of soft french bread.. I wish she could eat goat cheese; that is Bo's favorite snack!

  • Thanks so much everyone, there are some great ideas in here!  I just get in such a rut, we even have some of these things in the house but they didn't occur to me.

  • I buy a lot from the brand "happy" they are at target and are nut, gluten, and dairy free. I don't buy for that reason, but they are convieniant. O loves the apple/carrot snacks. 

    We do coconut drops also (like yogurt drops) and also crackers like white cheddar bunnies and graham crackers. 

    I also do a PB sandwich, with just 1 slice of bread and half PB.
