healthy snacks
Does anyone have good recommendations for healthy snacks? I often stay up late doing homework and get pretty hungry, and I'm getting tired of eating an apple or some crackers every night.
Just some notes: a) I don't like nuts or peanut butter. b) I would prefer if the suggestions were stuff we would likely have in the house so my mom doesn't have to go out and buy me snack food c) fruit is great, but it's expensive and not super filling, so I need some other ideas
Thanks!

When you mom goes to the groucery store why don't you see if she will buy you some healthy snacks because we don't know what you have in the house already. Here are some suggestions
Carrot sticks or any other raw vegies with low calorie ranch dressing
Unsweetened applesauce
Cheese and crackers with the whole grain crackers
Pretzels but they do have a lot of sodium if you have high blood pressure
Chips and salsa with the baked tortilla chips and granola bars.

Hey, here are a few suggestions:
Zucchini fries
- Cook 1 or 2 zucchinis (or more, depending on how hungry you are)
- Cut them up into the shape of fries
- Coat them in wheat flour
- Coat them in egg whites
- Roll them in bread crumbs
- Put them in the oven for 20 minutes at 425 degrees
Wraps
- There are many different wraps you can make, if you search it up you might be able to find a few different wraps to try out with food you already have.
Salad
- Maybe try making a salad. Some can be more filling than others, often pasta salads can be pretty filling.
Rye bread
- With avocado and tomato
- With hummus
- With banana and honey
- These are just some examples
There are quite a few videos on YouTube and articles with healthy snacks, I suggest searching it up as well.
Hope this helps!

why dont you go to the grocery store with your mom and pick out some stuff to make ahead of time if you know your into midnight snacking??
Pick out some boneless chicken and some chicken broth, and a few veggies and get your moms crock pot out, and MAKE a nice stew or soup??
Crock pots are fun because theres really no limit. Really no exact measurements or ingredients, and YOU decide based on flavor what you want! just toss all the stuff in there that you would want in a soup or a stew, click it to high in the morning and then by nightfall you have a grew HEALTHY soup to eat!
Crock pots can be so much fun, you should look into getting one if your mom doesnt have one, and checking out some recipes that other more experienced people who have played around with theirs a little more have made and try them! a crock pot is basically like an easy bake oven for adults. its not dangerous, and its a slow cooker.....
