Healthy A snacks and foods

Well, lately I have been trying to loose weight and most of the foods I have been eating food and snacks that give me an F as a nutritional grade. I really want to eat and be happy that it is healthy and nutritional. Any food suggestions, health websites, recipes, anything helpful will be REALLY appreciated. Thanks!! :)

have you looked at the recipes here?

I like to snack on fruits, like bananas, apples, berries so on or veggies and dip. Like raw carrots, celery, brocoli, and ranch or something. Sometimes if I want something salty I'll have air popped popcorn or something sweet i'll have a small chocolate milk. Though I still have about 10% of my calories in junk food or I would never be able to do it!

Good luck!! It always seems hard at first but once you change your lifestyle you don't even notice.

This is a list of 21 healthy snacks under 100 calories, hope it helps:)

 

1.   Frozen grapes (any color): 1 cup (about 28 grapes), stuck in the freezer for 2+ hours. My favorite.
2.  Celery stick dipped in 30 g of Tzatziki yogurt & cucumber dip. Crunchy and creamy at the same time.
3.  Grilled pineapple – 1 cup of pineapple rounds, grilled for two minutes or until golden. So good.
4.  Popcorn – 100 calorie bags of air-heated popcorn.
5.   Orange-Berry Salad – 1 cup of mixed berry salad (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, preferably organic) with one tablespoon fresh-squeezed orange juice. I should call it my anti-aging snack. 
6.  Gerber Graduate Puffs – My favorite flavor is sweet potatoes. Yummy and low calories.
7. Banana chips – One sliced banana dipped in lemon juice and baked.
8. Yogurt and berries – This one is 139 calories but it fills you up. 1/4 cup of frozen berries, 100g of low fat yogurt and 1/8 cup Rogers’ 5 grain granola with raisins. Yummm.
9. Dipped egg: One over easy egg with half a slice of whole-wheat toast, to dip in yolk.
10.  Edamame – : ¼ cup boiled Edamame with 1 teaspoon soy sauce.
11. Artichoke – 3-4 slices of canned hearts of palm and artichoke hearts.
12. Tropical smoothie – ¼ cup pineapple juice, apple juice and orange juice, blended with ice.
13. Sweet potatoes and Curry – One medium size potato, boiled in water until soft, mashed with 1 teaspoon of curry, a little salt and pepper. Very good.
14. Pumpkin seeds – These are amazingly healthy. Two tablespoons of pumpkin seeds, sprayed with a spritz of olive oil and baked at 400 degrees until brown. You can add a little salt and it’s heaven.
15. Natural Almonds – 14 whole natural almonds
16.  Toasted pita crisps – One whole wheat mini pita, spritz lightly with cooking spray or brush lightly with oil. Preheat oven to 425F. Bake until crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Delicious.
17. Mediterranean salad – Chopped fresh tomato, chopped seeded cucumber,
    chopped green onion, no-fat vinaigrette salad dressing (raspberry or balsamic are good), chill. Almost no calories and delicious.
18. Stuffed figs – 2 small dried figs with 1 tablespoon low fat ricotta stuffed inside. Add some cinnamon on top.
19. Cheese and Apples -One non-fat mozzarella cheese stick with sliced half of a medium sized apple.
20. Cottage and Fruits – Half a cup of non-fat cottage cheese with ½ cup fresh mango and pineapple sliced or chopped.
