10 Snacks
Under 100 Calories
Ah, the Holidays, the
excitement, the parties, the family get togethers,
the extra pounds around our waists... Instead
of a recipe this month we are including 10 snacks
under 100 calories, for those of us who have some
diet issues to work on for our New Year's
resolution. Happy snacking!
- Hershey's Kisses
are a perfect choice if you're looking to curb a
chocolate craving. Creamy and full of flavor,
these morsels are substantial and satisfying.
And at only 100 calories for three pieces, your
waistline won't have to suffer for your
indulgence.
- For a decadent
and visually delightful treat, top raw, sliced
fruit with Cool Whip Lite. A half cup of fresh
strawberries paired with four tablespoons of the
light whipped topping equals a measly 90
calories.
- Top half an
English muffin with one teaspoon of
protein-packed peanut butter and you'll have a
healthy and filling snack with only 95 calories.
Spread the low-cal goodwill by sharing the other
half with a co-worker.
- For a crunchy
and sweet snack, what could be better than
cripsy, crumbly graham crackers? Two sheets of
this classic treat have exactly 100 calories.
- Easy to grab on
the go, Jell-O Fat-Free Pudding Snacks come in
delicious flavors like chocolate, tapioca,
devil's food, and chocolate/vanilla swirl. Light
on calories -- coming in at just 100 -- these
pudding cup cuties are full of flavor.
- Creamy and
delicious, frozen yogurt is a perfect treat any
time of the year. Just three ounces of a
fat-free brand will only set you back 100
calories.
- There's nothing
like beautiful, fresh, ripe cherries to brighten
up your palate. A cup of this antioxidant-rich
fruit has only 95 calories.
- Eggs used to get
a bad rap, but now they're back in good favor
because they are such a good source of iron and
protein. One medium hard-boiled egg delivers a
host of essential vitamins and just 81 calories.
- Crunchy almonds
make a filling, protein-packed snack. While we
don't suggest overindulging, 10 raw almonds
roughly equals a diet-friendly 100 calories.
Can't find them raw? Roasted, without salt, only
adds a few more calories.
- Three cups of
air-popped popcorn weigh in at just 93 calories
and give you nearly 15 percent of your daily
requirement of fiber -- making it the perfect
snack to fill you up, not out.
