For many, dieting equals food restriction. Snacks? They usually get eliminated in the name of saving calories. But snacking when you’re watching your weight is actually a good idea. When dieting, people often wait too long in between meals, so by the time they eat, they’re so hungry, their portions or choices are out of control.
Here are a three simple, easy and tasty snack ideas to get you through the week ahead:
Dipped Strawberries
Dip the strawberry into some low fat yoghurt, then into some crushed nuts and seeds. The crunchy, sweet texture will satisfy all your cravings!
Apple & Cheese
Packed with fiber, water, and antioxidants, fruits and vegetables are great choices for diet-friendly snacking. Try a slice of your favourite apple with small amounts of cheese.
Frozen yogurt berries
If you’re looking for a satisfying snack that you won’t regret later, then these frozen yogurt berries are perfect!
Just dip the berries into yogurt, place on a tray then place in the freezer for a few hours. Enjoy a guilt free snack!
