Okay, no matter how good we’re being about our eating, we need snacks, right? Over the past few months I’ve found a few new, low WW point snacks, that get me through the evenings watching TV. Of course, there’s popcorn. At zero pts for air popped it’s hard to beat, but I need variety. My two new favorites are:
Snacklins:
The company describes these delicious devils as impossibly crunchy, remarkably airy crisps. And that’s true! They are plant-based and 90 cal per snack size bag. I buy the larger bags at Sprouts, so I can’t eat the whole bag, but for a serving of 25 chips they’re 3 points for me, which is great! And, It’s not like there are 25 little puny chips sitting at the bottom of a bowl either, which is often the case with other bagged snacks (say pretzel sticks). These are big chips and I always feel very happy when I look at that full bowl that I get to eat. They come in barbecue and nacho at Sprouts, but it looks like you can get others online, such as teriyaki, Chesapeake Bay, sea salt and vinegar, and Cinnamon churro. My favorite is Nacho right now but I haven’t had all of them. I love these crunchy nibbles! I just wish my grocery store would stock them.
Arrowhead Mills Cereal Puffed Corn:
I guess it might seem weird to just eat cereal like a snack, but I’ve done this all my life, with no regard to calories or points. I love Arrowhead’s puffed rice as a snack now too, but their puffed corn has become my newest favorite. I can only find them in my area at Sprouts. This cereal is 1 point for 1 cup and I always fill my bowl with two servings. It’s addictive though, so beware…..always measure and don’t eat out of the bag (which you would never do, right?) 🙂
I firmly believe it’s important to keep my snacks around so I won’t go off the rails when I get the nibbles, so I do. A trip to Sprouts is a weekly event for me.
Well, have a good WW week….it’s Snack time!
