I fancy a new snack idea. I'm sure most people go through phases of having a favourite snack. Sometimes we will try something new or go back to old favourites that we had forgotten. Something simple, minimal fuss.

I've eaten cheddar cheese, biscuit type crackers, and pickle almost everyday this week. Yum. But I'll probably be sick of it in a week's time. And that's where you come in.

Simplest snack for me is a protein shake

Protein Powder
Cultured Yougurt
Oat Bran
Milled Flax seeds
Raspberries.
Skim Milk

Whip is together pretty quick.

I don't eat snacks per se. If I'm hungry, that's a sign that I need a full course meal. If on the go it's a turkey sammich or some tuna salad.

That's similar to my morning hotchpotch:

blueberries - usually frozen
stawberries - usually frozen
mango - always from frozen
pineapple juice
greek yoghurt
peanut butter
milk
water
milled flax
milled oats
milk protein concentrate

I don't usually do more than one a day, though.

Yea I usually grab them's after ball, they are awsome.

Some things I like for a quick snack

-Almonds
-Beef jerkey (watch out for the sodium though)
-Turkey deli meat (again, sodium. i always ask for low-sodium)


Most of the tmie however, I usually open 3 cans of tuna, mix with some dill relish, and about 3-4 TBSP of lite mayo and I throw in a handful of almonds into the bunch. This makes two high-protein, high fat (good fat), low low carb meals and is about ~400-500 calories depending on how many almonds you thow in. You can also spice it up by throwing in some chicken or crab meat. Makes a great snack. I eat this 2-3/day if I can while I'm carb cycling.

Have those Ultra Hot Pockets made their taste better? When they first came out they were horrible tasting, so bad I could barely get them down.

Low fat milk (or with whey) + pb + oat cereal

[Irish Cannon]

My favorite snack is a some lean ground beef with blackened seasoning and some rosemary potatoes, or a tuna sub-sandwich with jalapeno peppers and banana peppers and lots of milk and fish oil.

In other words, You shouldn't have time for snacks. If you need a snack, eat more frequently. Don't eat for taste, eat for results!

If that fails, Cheetos.
