Aim for 200 calories
Am I Hungry?
Control portions
Plan ahead
Pair carbs and protein
Less active people should keep snacks under 200
calories, while active people can aim for 200-300 calories.
Ask yourself, am I hungry or am I just bored/thirsty/stressed or
frustrated instead? If it's not hunger, go for a walk or call a friend.
Avoid eating directly out of a multi-serving bag/box.
Measure portions or use single-serve size bags or cups.
Prep and pack your snacks ahead of time to avoid
impulse snacking on the wrong foods.
Carbs digest quickly while protein digests more slowly. The
combo gives you instant energy with lasting relief from hunger.
Pro Tips- Snacking
snack ideas
Homemade Trail Mix: Mix lightly salted or unsalted nuts with dried
fruit and dark chocolate bits for a snack filled with fiber, antioxidants,
and vitamins. Portion into ¼ cup servings. Choose dark chocolate
with 70% cacao for added antioxidants and less added sugar.
Roasted Chickpeas: Chickpeas aren't just for hummus anymore.
They're packed with fiber, protein and carbohydrates. Craving a
crunchy snack? Toss chickpeas with olive oil, season, and bake at
450° for 30-40 mins. until browned. Portion into ¼ - ½ cup servings.
Vegetable Skewers: Pair cherry or grape tomatoes with low-fat
cheese cubes for a nutritious and satisfying snack.
Yogurt Parfait: Yogurt has beneficial calcium,
potassium and probiotics. Look for Greek yogurt, which
usually has twice the protein and half the sugar of
regular yogurt. Top 6 oz. Greek yogurt with a handful of
nuts or 1/2 cup of berries for added fiber and nutrients.
