    I am going grocery shopping today (woohoo) and was wondering what your favorite healthy snack is? I need some new ideas!

    Quakes - great substitute for chips

    Popchips - ditto

    I love celery and hummus together!

    I like dark chocolate pudding.  It's not healthy so much as low calorie, but it offers a nice fix to a chocolate craving.  And I like string cheese.  But there's nothing better than good fresh fruit.

    I love almonds- they give me lots of energy- just eating a few. 

    And oranges.  Have you heard of Larabars?

    I really like Almond butter.  It is a nice substitue for peanut butter and the best with apples.

    I'm a fan of fruit, of course, or those protein bars!

    @jgibso27 I love Quakes too! BBQ are my favorite (then Ranch). My hubby loves the ranch.

    I love fresh fruit!!! Cantaloupe and berries are my fave fruits. :)

    Baby carrots. I can eat a whole bag of those in one sitting! 

    Celery and all-natural peanut butter

    Nonfat vanilla yogurt with some fruit and granola

    Any fruit- I love summer because all the berries are coming in season!

    Nature Valley Oats n Honey bars- not the healthiest but not bad either

    Cliff/Luna Bars- Out of all the protein bars out there, I have found these to be the least artificial/lowest in fat/most nutritious. 

    Low Fat String Cheese- yum!

    Veggies: red/yellow peppers, carrots, endive with a little hummus or laughing cow cheese (sometimes I mix a little goat cheese into the laughing cow cheese for something different)

    Cheddar cheese and green apple slices

    Hard boiled egg

    Cherry tomatoes with basil (and a little salt and pepper)

    English muffin toasted with peanut butter and banana

    Banana cut longwise, with peanut butter on top

    Larabars are the greatest!  They are vegan, mostly made from fruit and nuts.

    If I'm REALLY craving something chocolately, I'll have part of a chocolate brownie CLIFF bar. They're so tasty! No, they unfortunately don't taste exactly like brownies, but they're similar, and they have all kinds of vitamins thrown in. I'll eat like a third of one bar because they're pretty big as my late-afternoon snack, and it keeps me full until I hit the gym after work.

    I mean, they're not as healthy as fruits and veggies, but yum, they do the trick.

    Hmm.. good question.  I love rice cakes with peanut butter!  cucumbers and hummus.  Sometimes I get black beans, mash them up with a little salt and garlick and use it as a dip with pretzels & veggies.  I love apples and peanut butter, pistachios (low cal!), there are 100 cal ice cream bars.  I personally love to put fat free yogurt (yoplait) in the freezer,  it's like an ice cream treat!  you can do a smoothie fairly low cal with milk and fruit, you can even throw in a little pb!

    I also love fat free cottage cheese and pretzels (it replaces french onion dip quite nicely) or ff cottage cheese with fruit.  One of my favs is ff cottage cheese with dried cranberries & soy nuts... sooooo yummy.

    a little bit of trail mix--pecans, dried cranberries, roasted pumpkin seeds, and yogurt and dark chocolate covered raisins (fewer of those than the rest of the ingredients).  I just buy the ingredients separately and mix it myself.
