what are you snacking on????

[moniegail]

i'm sitting here taking a break from housework with a little snack or i should say a mini meal. some cheese chunks(cheddar & jalapeno pepperjack), a few small salami slices,3 bell pepper strips, and a couple celery sticks with garden veggie flavored cream cheese.

just was wondering what other types of snacks people eat. this time around i am looking to find new ideas for snacks and meals. i think that's why DH and i managed to go off this woe last time around, after about 1 1/2 yrs of eating the same stuff, we got bored. Fell off wagon hard!!!!

for me eating new things this time around is keeping me from being bored. so far though DH seems to be content, but i get tired of eating the same things, so i've changed things up a bit.

just like with breakfast, bacon & eggs worked the first week, but got old for me quick, so now i generally only have eggs 2 or 3 times a week. now instead of a traditional breakfast, i make tuna salad, or eat a salad, or just change up the meat i fix w/ my eggs. i fixed a pork chop today with my fried egg.

sorry for such a long post, but i enjoy everyone's comments on here so much, i'd love to hear back from you all.

PS-in case you forgot the (?)....."what are you snacking on?"

thanks for all the support!!!!

Celery stalks with cream cheese, but cream cheese with chives and garlic. Regular cream cheese is gross! ;P Also, um, pepperoni, I make Mog's fake taco shells and cut them up and eat them like chips, and flax cookies. Mmmm!

My favorite nighttime snack has been creamcheese mixed with SF vanilla syrup and a dash of heavy whipping cream. Because it is sweet I don't like to have it during the day as to not set off a craving for sweets.

I like to place some sliced pepperoni on a saucer and slicd a roma tomato, sprinkle with garlic powder and top with mozzarella cheese. Nuke for 2 minutes an whalla== individual pizza. Very good stuff too.

Here's a yummy low carb and not too many calories snack..

Dill pickle sliced into about 7 pieces. Wrap it with ham or beef with cream cheese to "glue" it on. So yummy.... A "real" appitizer that my sis used at her wedding too!

At the beginning of the week, I made the best green beans...I threw them in a skillet with fresh minced garlic, some olive oil, and a little black pepper. They are so good! I actually eat them cold right out of the fridge...They're great for that chip craving!

I'm in the car a lot and instead of skipping meals when I can't make it back to Boondocksville to have lunch, I carry Slim Jims and macadamias or peanuts. Nice snack and it keeps me from accidental carb poisoning. I used to keep Mozzarella sticks in the cooler with my water (don't we ALL have a cooler with water in our cars?)
