Snacks...here are a few of my favorite things

This is in response to a post oh....3 months ago. Glad to see I'm not the only slow poke.

Take a sweet potato and bake it until soft and fluffy (I do it in the microwave for ease and convenience). Then spread a wedge of Laughing Cow - light garlic & herb. So good, so legal. I usually do this for quick lunches, but throw some steamed broccoli on top and I would be completely satisfied with that for dinner. Got this bright idea from the biggest loser cookbook.

Pirates Booty. How come I didn't know about this sooner? So very good and addictive. I have no idea if it's good for you, but I find it in the health food section, so at least it makes me think I'm being good.

This seems silly to write, but I'll open a can of tuna and instead of making a sandwich with it, I'll put it on celery. I like the crunch.

This also seems silly - Peanut butter banana toast. You know, like we use to make after walking home from school together. It needs no explanation. Such a good afternoon pick-me-up. Sometimes I go crazy and use crunchy peanut butter.

I also really like to make wraps with flatout. I made a really good one today with plain light cream cheese, cranberry sauce, spinach and shredded carrot. But I am in need of some new fresh ideas to wrap if you've got them.
