Enjoying Low Fat and Healthy Snacks

Snacks appropriate enjoyed watching television during the match to start a new small business

One of my favorite's pastimes is to watch television while munching of snacks. I have been doing this for the past few years and now realize that most of the snacks consumed are high in fat or high in calories. Since I love eating and didn't want to stop doing what I have done, I have switched to snacks that are low fat and still taste good. This benefited me and I wanted to share with others on how to continue enjoying watching television and eating snacks.

Here are a few tips on what snacks are tasty, good and healthy to our body.

Fruits and Vegetables

Instead of eating cheese stick, why not replaced it with a piece of fresh fruit. Fruit such as apple, banana or carrot is delicious, juicy and easy to eat. Furthermore it contains high fibre and helps lower blood cholesterol. If you prefer it cold, keep it in a polythene bag in a refrigerator. For kebab fans, skewer fruit pieces on to cocktail sticks or bamboo skewers and grilled them.

Crackers and biscuits

For pizza lovers, try crackers such as water biscuits or crisp bread spread with either reduced sugar am or marmalade.

You can even use low fat cheese and turkey ham as the toppings.

Yogurt

As for ice-cream which I know is hard to resist, try replacing it with low-fat, fruit yogurt or even fromage frais on to puddings. Keep the yogurt in the refrigerator for an ice-cream feeling.

Cereal

Cereal is real healthy food and beneficial especially for those that has high level of cholesterol. Taking it during breakfast with skimmed milk is really tasty. You can even try out no added sugar muesli as the replacement.

Canned fruits and cakes

For dessert eaters, a portion of canned fruit in natural fruit juice taste really good with serve with fat free yogurt. We do this on most weekends as the kids love it. If you really enjoy eating cakes, try rice cakes or oat cakes. It might not be as tasty as a chocolate or cheese cake, but it has its own delicacy. You can topped it with honey or reduced fat cheese. Oats are well known in reducing blood cholesterol.

Dry fruits

Dried fruit such as raisins, apricots or sultanas are really nice and healthy snacks to be munched while watching your favourite movie. There also make a perfect appetizer for children especially during school lunch or breaks.
