Upgrade snacks: crunchy cravings
When you are craving something crunchy...before reaching for those chips try:
- Apples with almond butter
- frozen grapes
- rice cakes
- light popcorn or plain popcorn: use coconut oil to pop in a covered pan
- one or two hard pretzels, the large Bavarian variety
- carrots: particularly the super-sweet, organic baby carrots
- crunchy crudités of veggies and dip (hummus, tabouli, or favorite dressing)
- celery and peanut butter (look at labels for hidden sugars!)
- hummus with whole grain toast, baby carrots, rice crackers
- snacks
- cravings
