Favorite 100 Calorie Snacks!

I'm going to compile a list of my favorite snacks by calorie count, for me and for you. This way, I can refer back to it once in awhile and so that you can look at it as well! I hope that you're able to give me some ideas as well :) it's never good to get bored with what we're eating.

  1. Eggo Waffle (Whole Wheat) (85 cal) w/ 1/4 of a Tbsp of Syrup (15 cal)
  2. 5 Almond stuffed Dates
  3. 6 Whole Wheat Crackers (or 3 crackers with cheese)
  4. 29 Pistachios, yum!
  5. 1 Skinny Cow Fat Free Fudge Bar 
  6. Cheese Stick (Not all of them are this low in calories!)
  7. Just Under 1/2 a Cup of Cottage Cheese (Mix and match with certain fruits!)
  8. 1/2 Medium Cantaloupe 
  9. 1/2 Cup of Mango
  10. 1/2 Cup of Ice Cream (Chocolate too!!)
  11. Popcorn! (How much you can eat in a hundred calories depends on what kind of popcorn)
  12. 1 Cheese Quesadilla
  13. 14 Almonds
  14. 1 Pita Pocket stuffed with Ricotta Cheese
  15. 8 Carrots with Hummus (or more without!)
  16. 3/4 Cups of Apple with Peanut Butter 
  17. Peanut Butter (check calories)
  18. Frozen Banana Pop - haven't tried it yet but I've heard great things about it. An alternative is taking out the frozen banana and blending it to make it creamy (like ice cream!)
  19. 1 Cup Tomato Soup (74 calories) 
  20. 1/2 Medium Baked Potato (85 calories), add some butter and make it 100 and delicious!
  21. 1 Medium Red Apple
  22. 2 Medium Kiwis
  23. Slice of Bread (depends on what you get) 
  24. 1 Cup of Low-fat, Low-sodium Vegetable soup 
  25. 1/3 Cup of Red Kidney Beans (85 Cal)
  26. 1 Small Scoop of Frozen Yogurt
  27. 2 Cups of Watermelon (90 cal) (that's a lot of watermelon!!)

Tips that I Read About 
  • Don't have cookies and crackers during all of your snack breaks...too much refined flour isn't good for us!
  • Mixing fruits with other things (cheese!) helps us eat more fruits without torturing ourselves
  • Making smoothies is a great way to get in your fruits and veggies, but make sure you're counting calories because it could easy add up to 400-500 calories without even trying!!
