Reduced Fat Triscuts and Salsa is my favorite. They are only 2 points per serving on Weight Watchers and the Salsa is 0 plus counts as a veggie. Gives me some crunch and some spice and I feel fulfilled!!
Organic dried fruit is a great snack. I like to get dried apples, apricots, cherries and cranberries and mix them together. Sometimes I add nuts and/or granola to make a kind of trail mix. Yummy!
Popcorn seeds that you can buy in a jar at the store...and cook them on your stovetop...add a pinch of salt and enjoy! :)
