Snack variety?

[Catrin]

I love roasted salted nuts of any variety, but I need to learn to eat the blander raw versions

I like the idea of making salads and so forth to bring as a snack - that would certainly mix it up. I do enjoy quinoa and also balela (a middle-eastern bean salad). fruit, low-fat cheese, and turkey would be excellent for those days when I start by being tortured...errrr attend group training class at 6am.

I also need to get back to making my own hummus from scratch - it is easy and that way I know what is in it. Thanks for all the good ideas to help jump-start my brain. My diet is so strict that I tend to fall into a dietary rut - but it doesn't have to be that way

Crankin - I have that same craving, especially in hot weather. Salt and carbs, and sadly Trader Joe's has this wonderful multi-grain baked tortilla chip that fills that need quite nicely. I need to stop that!
