100 Calorie Snacks
A 100 calorie snack is just enough to give you that nice feeling of enjoyment, without putting on the pounds. They are a great way to treat yourself without completely demolishing your diet.
These are some of my favorite 100 calorie snacks:
- 1/2 cup of sugar-free gelatin, any flavor, and two tablespoons of low fat whipped topping.
- 15 chocolate-covered raisins.
- Stir 2 teaspoons of chocolate syrup into a cup of coffee for Cafe Mocha.
- Six animal crackers.
- Add 1/4 cup of fat-free Ranch dressing to 1 cup of mixed fresh veggies such as zucchini, red bell pepper, celery, carrot sticks and cherry tomatoes.
- Either six saltine crackers or two graham cracker squares with 2 teaspoons of peanut butter or fruit jam.
- One 1/2 cup of fat-free ice cream.
- A luscious parfait: 1/2 cup of low-fat pudding layered into a parfait glass alternating with two crumbled vanilla wafers and a dollop of low fat whipped topping to garnish the top.
- Spoon 1/2 cup of salsa and 2 tablespoons of non-fat sour cream over a small baked potato.
- One rice cake thinly spread with fat-free sour cream and sprinkled with one tablespoon of crumbled blue cheese.
- Place a marshmallow on top of a graham cracker and microwave until gooey, drizzle with a teaspoon of chocolate syrup.
- Cut half an apple into slices and spread with 2 teaspoons of peanut butter.
