Healthy snacks

For a quick light snack, try a toasted whole grain waffle topped with nonfat cottage cheese and a handful of fresh berries.


Try cucumbers cooked instead of raw - they’re great. Slice thinly, sauté in a little oil, then top with soy sauce, garlic and pepper.


Melons are more than 95% water, and are rich in potassium, so they’re great fluid replacers if you’ve been exercising on a warm day


Eating hard, crunchy foods is a stress reliever. Skip the chips & try baby carrots, roasted soy nuts or a small handful of almonds instead.


Slice tofu and marinate in teriyaki sauce. Then roast in a single layer at 425°for 15 min. Delicious in stir-fry dishes, or in a salad.


Make your own fruit-flavored yogurt. Thaw frozen berries in the microwave, stir berries & juice into plain yogurt, and sweeten lightly
