Quick low cal snacks

1 laughing cow cheese: 35 calories
8 turkey pepperoni slices: 35
8 reduced fat wheat thins: 65

Total calories: 135

***************

Roasted red pepper Hummus: 1/4 C is about 100 calories (depending on the brand)
variety of veggies: I love celery and it's basically no calories for a handful of sticks

Yummy breakfast sandwich (175 calories)


1 orowheat bagelthin (I like the everything bagel)
1 laughing cow cheese (I like the mozzarella, sundried tom. and basil for this dish)
1 serving egg beaters (1/4 c.)

Lightly toast bagelthin and spread with laughing cow cheese. Cook eggs according to package and put on bagel...put the top on and enjoy.

Calorie breakdown:
Bagelthin: 110
Laughing Cow: 35
Egg beaters: 30 (1 serving)

Total calories: 175

Sometimes I add a slice of turkey bacon for an additional 35 calories

100 calorie omelet


1/2 cup egg beaters (2 servings or 2 eggs)
1 T. sliced green onions
1 laughing cow cheese (I like to use the garlic and herb)

Spray small fry pan with non stick spray. Hit pan on med. heat. Pour in egg beaters and let set up a bit. Pull back the edges to allow the egg to cook through. Add green onions and chunked cheese on 1/2 of omelet, fold over and slide onto plate.

Calorie break down:
egg beaters: 30 calories a serving (serving size 1/4 c.)
green onions: (5 calories in 1/4c)
Laughing cow cheese: 35 calories

Total calories: 95

You can add lots of different veggies and you will probably never go over 100 calories. The laughing cow cheese doesn't really melt, but I love the little chunks of the creamy cheese. You could substitute regular cheese, (1/8 C of shredded cheddar is 57 calories), but it will put you over the 100 calories.
