peppers, which are considered a fruit (Yah! I know! Shocked me too!)

1. Bell peppers are very rich in vitamin C and vitamin A.
2. One cup of raw, red bell peppers gives your body approximately 290 percent of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin C and 105 percent of the RDA for vitamin A.
3. Bell peppers have significant amounts of vitamin B 6
4. They are a great source of dietary fiber.
5. One bell pepper contains only 30 to 40 calories.
6. Bell peppers are a great source of antioxidants.
7. Red bell peppers contain lutein, a phytonutrient that benefits against macular degeneration.
8. They are also a good source of lycopene which has been shown to lower the risk of prostate, bladder, cervical and pancreatic cancers.
9. Bell peppers contain about 110 grams of water which is necessary for fat burning success.
10. They are low in saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium.

Dip them in some low fat hummus... Yummers!

I like Special K crackers / chips , you can get them where the rice crackers are sold, but they are made with potato flour, and are 20 for 80 calories (plain style).

Thanks everyone, great suggestions, I made the protein granola last night and worked it out to 100 calories per ounce with almost 6 gram of protein and 4.2 gram of carbs and I put sugar free Nestle Quk in it so it was tasty also.

Happy New Year
