Bunches of Low-Calorie Snack Options

Purchase Chocolate Covered Strawberries



There are lots of 100-calorie snack packs out there, but a lot of them aren't very satisfying, because they are either high sugar or low on fiber carbohydrates.  I'm not saying you should not indulge in the occasional 100-calorie snack pack of sweets, however there are some other snack options that are more satiating.  The key to a satisfying snack is balance.  Look for high fiber options, protein, and the presence of a small amount of fat.  Here are a few of my ideas.  Please feel free to add on your low-calorie snack ideas in the comments.
