Easy snack suggestions?

[HeidiK]

Now that I'm trying to get away from the mindless handful of pepperoni when I want a snack, I need help coming up with lower salt, lower calorie munchies -- I really struggle with the pepperoni and...............cheese (I'm Swiss, it's in my blood.....that and chocolate unfortunately ). Suggestions?

Re: Easy snack suggestions?

Here's what I keep in tiny tupperware containers or little zip-lock baggies at all times:

- 10 black olives
- string cheese
- devilled eggs
- chopped cucumber with blue cheese dressing
- broccoli heads with ranch dressing
- flax crackers to top with cream cheese
- pickled artichoke hearts
- pickles
- roasted chicken wings, heavily seasoned
- nuts (I'm in OWL)
- salami
- smoked turkey
- cherry tomatos
- mashed turnips with parmesan cheese (to heat up quickly in microwave)
- sliced jicama fried in butter until golden brown and topped with cinamon and splenda (best heated)

I don't eat them all every day, not by a long shot, but they're there for the taking.
