Snack ideas....

Hi everyone,

Im clear for the regular diet and 1 to 2 snacks per day. I've been relying on string cheese or baby bel. Feeling like there are more options but stuck....any good suggestions?

Anything you eat for a meal, just in smaller portions?  

Tuna fish, nut butter, nuts, yogurt, cottage cheese, an egg, leftovers, deli meat, whatever you want :)  It doesn't need to be something that's "snack" food, if you know what I mean.  

Lite Greek yogurt, turkey pepperoni chips.

One of my favorite snacks is cottage cheese with unsweetened applesauce, cinnamon and tiny amount of splenda.  I never like cottage cheese prior to surgery, but love it like this and it helps me get more protein.

I have the same issue figuring out snacks other than cheese sticks or Babybel cheese. What are pepperoni chips?  I've tried using hummus for a snack, pretty good on thinly sliced cucumber. 

Tlove, turkey pepperoni chips are sliced turkey pepperoni placed on a dish/tray lined with paper towrl qnd then microwaved.

I like sliced peppers, baby carrots,  cherry tomatoes or any sliced veggies with fage Greek yogurt w/Fiesta or regular ranch dip mix added into it. Makes a very high protein dip.

You can have all this so soon after surgery? or are they just things you like in general? Sorry, just curious.. 

I love cheese too. I found these: Jarlsberg minis the other day http://www.pinterest.com/pin/246642517067750442/ Yummy. Here are a couple of fav snacks/small meals: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2014/06/a-doz en-protein-packed-and-portable.html 

Hope they give you a couple of new ideas.
