on the 6 week fitness challenge and I've found a snack that satisfies my cravings.....Pistachios! 1/4 cup for 170 calories and 6 grams of protein. What is your favorite snack?
I love nuts, but I find it very hard to stick to the right portions. They are very good for you though, contain 'good fats' and everything. Especially (I'm not sure where I read this) if they weren't roasted beforehand.
I was reading and found this fun fact about Pistachios; Per serving, pistachios have more antioxidants than green tea. That should make tea green with envy.
I'm having such a hard time w/ snacking & sweets :o( I'm going to try the oranges & cottage cheese. I totally dig your blog! Ok, I'm off to become a follower.
My camera is my constant companion and most of my life is an open book. This blog is a little of this and a little of that, but mostly things that make me happy, our humble lair and the people I love.

I looooove pistachios, but can't stop at 1/4 cup so I have to leave them out! :(
I love apples with a little bit of peanut butter ~ mmmm
I have been munching on those as well...Chris brought some home for me from his trip.
My favorite snack is apple sauce and graham crackers.:)
Kim you nailed mine on the button! I love apples and PB too! Of course I have to eat more apples than PB! =)
I do love nuts...but they do have to be kept to small portions...but they stick with you so your cravings are reduced!
I am a fan of pistachios. Now if you are on the Atkins diet, you can eat more than 1/4 cup. :)
Yea for Atkins!

Right now I'm loving apple slices dipped in yogurt and frozen grapes. So tasty.
