I took a ruby red grapefruit just now and cut it in half and then fourthed the half. This started me thinking. I bet all of you have healthy snack ideas and recipes you could share with all of us. I am very concerned about getting healthier as I am not a young whipper snapper any longer. So please, share them and I will copy them and put them in a word document and store them on my PC.
~Mmm. Tell us your healthy snack ideas/recipes~

1 Glass of Tomato Juice.
That's pretty much it for me since I've been on my diet. -

Mmmm. Yes. Tomato juice or V-8. I also like canned tomatoes.

Hey, Mama, hadn't seen you round for a while. What else do you use on the rolls? Can you list the ingredients?

Some of my Weight Watchers staples are:
A can of stewed tomatoes heated up with a slice of Kraft 2% single melted into it.
A can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped. Mushed up with Light Laughing Cow Cheese (garlic flavor). It makes an artichokey spread and I eat it with Ry-krisp crackers or AkMaks.
A big bowl of cut-up mango and papaya. For those times when an apple just doesn't do the trick.
Sushi from the deli section of the grocery store. Beware the ones with mayo. I just get the veggie or the calif. roll.
A big bowl of air-popped popcorn lightly sprayed with olive or canola oil spray. Then sprinkled with popcorn salt. Popcorn salt is hard to find but it is much finer than regular salt and sticks better to low-fat popcorn. I have this with a glass of V8.
I will post more as I think of them. -

Thank you, Evita. All of this sounds great. I love the artichoke idea especially. Can't wait for more.

cut your tomato in half and put on backing sheet with cut half up.
sprinkle with garlic basil or ahatever spice you like...cayenne (I like) sometimes cilantro
top with a little pamesean and put them in the oven and broil.
