    What is your new favorite (and possibly healthy) snack?

    Mine is organic dried cranberries from one of my favorite local markets--I cannot stop eating them!

    Dried apricots, especially on the bike. I like that they're bite size, and don't require wrapping.

    OMG--I used to love that. I think I am drooling now! Thanks for admitting the craving!

    Apple--small granny smith with peanut butter (natural).
    Ok, good to eat at my desk--not on the bike.

    I have this recipe (I'd post it here if I were ever home) from the Biggest Loser book (an older one) for Peanutty Spread. It's like PB, but lower in fat. I'm addicted to it on everything from apples to toast.
    Be yourself, to the extreme!

    I'm an granny smith apple & peanut butter gal also. That's my mid-morning snack everyday at work. I got asked by one of the guys the other day if that's the snack I'd be bringing for them during this year's "Bike to Work Week".

    I like to throw different types of nuts in it for extra flavor. Honey roasted almonds make it really yummy.

    Raisins, though I know some "brands" aren't as healthy as others.

    Are you chopping the apple and mixing it all up?

    Granny smith apples, peanut butter and almonds are 3 of my favorite things, but I'd never considered eating them all together!

    Edamame!
    Well, that's a new favorite HEALTHY snack.
    Popchips salt and pepper flavor are a favorite sorta healthy snack, but you really have to watch portion size. It's easy to get out of control with them, but then, not sooo tragic if you do.

    Walnuts and raisins.

    PB on just about anything. A spoon will do in a pinch.

    Glazed walnuts . . . they're fabulous and very healthy.

    Funny, I think we all have similar tastes.
    My new favorite: Sliced apples, peanut butter on a whole wheat tortilla, with a little honey drizzled over it all. Roll it up and NUMMY! a little messy sometime, though
