You've likely seen the prepackaged cookies, crackers, and chips that weigh in at 100-calories each. They're a great idea for those who need to grab a quick nosh without having to face portion control on an empty stomach.
Why not take this same idea and run with it, prepackaging some 100-calorie snacks of your own? Try:
Veggies and Dip: Pack up a cup of fresh veggies like broccoli and cauliflower florets, baby carrots, snap peas, pepper strips, baby squash with two tablespoons of hummus or light ranch salad dressing for a snack that's packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
Oatmeal in an Instant: Pair an individual serving of flavored instant hot oatmeal (check package labels to find one under 100 calories) with a little hot water and you'll have a stick to your ribs snack that satisfies one serving of whole grains, too.
Hot Potato: Bake or microwave one medium potato, then cut it in half (set aside one half for another meal). Fluff the potato within the skin with a fork, then top it with 2 tablespoons of salsa. Skin and all, this snack only weighs in at 90 calories, but has protein, fiber, and vitamin C.
