Healthy Snackage

During my 60 day le body challenge, sometimes I still can't help but snack on delicious foods in between meals. So here's some good snack options that are low-cal, healthy, but still tasty!

1. Garden Veggie chips - BEST ALTERNATIVE TO REGULAR CHIPS

When I go to my local wholesale store, I always get a huge box of this stuff. The chips taste even better than regular ol' chips, but a lot healthier. Not only does the whole bag have 0 grams trans fat, the chips are naturally flavored. Garden Veggie Chips are sold for ~$10 / 8 bags at CostCo.

2. XinJiang's Dried Grapes (raisins) - MOST HEALTHY & NUTRITIOUS

A handful of these are extremely delish for snacking. The flavor is slightly tart with the perfect sweetness. Honestly I'd definitely pick these over the typical American brand sickly-sweet raisins. Except... I'd have to go to China to pick up a bag of these goodies. Next time I go, I will stock up! But in the meantime, you can still get this greatness via the power of online shopping. Buy for only 8 yuan (which is just 1 USD) at XiaoMaYi (online supermarket).

3. Pretz biscuit sticks - DIET-FRIENDLY

Pretz.... oh where do I start? The variety of flavors range from pizza to salad to tomato, so you get to pick whatever flavors suit your fancy. My personal favorite is Salad Pretz... I couldn't get enough of the salty goodness. Although this is probably not the healthiest choice, every stick is so low-cal that you won't risk getting fat from consuming these. You can find Pretz snacks at any local Asian supermarket for about $2-3.
