Echo Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Sometimes, the most interesting and fun foods are the ones we eat as snacks or appetizers. What interesting or just plain delicious snack have you had today? I just had an cup of Pomegranate/Acai Berry yogurt. It was unbelievably delicious!! Quote
Kell Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 These days I find myself nibbling on a lot of crystalised ginger in an attempt to stave off morning sickness. I love ginger anyway, but I'm starting to get a bit sick of it already! Also dry crackers - Carrs Water Biscuits or Cornish Wafers are favourites at the moment - again, it's anti-morning sickness stuff. Quote
happyanddandy Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Dried bananas are great for my sweet tooth - Tesco's are good - beware a lot of brands with added fat! Quote
JudyB Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 In my quest for weight loss and good health I now nibble on soya nuts and seeds (sunflower etc). Quote
Nici Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 No I don't Judy. I do it in a saucepan with a lid and a tiny drizzle of oil. Quote
Roland Butter Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Warm pitta bread with humous or taramasalata goes down well in my house. Quote
Nici Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Oh yes I like pitta breads and houmous as well. Quote
Michelle Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Oh my goodness.. you're all so good! I do far too much snacking on anything chocolate! Quote
angerball Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Pistachios and cashews are my favourite. I also like yoghurt, and dried fruit, and cereal bars (apple and sultana are delicious). Quote
poppy Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 I don't very often eat these, but my favourites would be honey roasted peanuts, roasted cashew nuts and dried apricots. Once I start eating them I can't stop (angerball, just noticed you and Muggles are reading the same book - you'll have to compare notes) Quote
Kell Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Peanuts! Peanuts! Peanuts! I adore peanuts, but aparently they should be avoided during pregnancy because they can cause an allergy in the little'un. How nuts is that? (Sorry, I couldn't resist a small and terrible pun there!). I'm going to have to ask the midwife if that extends to ALL nuts or just peanuts, because I'm kind of missing cashews and almonds right now too... Quote
Icecream Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Kell, I think that is only if you have an allergy in your family, as it prevents the baby from getting the allergy. This thread is so good for a heavily pregnant woman with a toddler. I usually snack on fruit or crackers, or maybe toast since being very pregnant, but I am just so very hungry with having both children and have been struggling to think of healthy snacks that are substantial enough to get me through the morning, or afternoon with the children, but not too much. Keep the ideas flowing. I need them..(and so will Kell). Quote
Echo Posted February 10, 2008 Author Posted February 10, 2008 Today I've snacked on potato chips, Krispy Kreme donuts, chocolate, white chedder cheese puffs, and 3 diet cokes. It's that "time of the month".... No wonder I've been putting on weight. Quote
~Andrea~ Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 I'm really into twiglets at the moment and I have a bag of them every day at work. I do snack a lot as I have problems regulating my blood sugar and need to eat little and often. My snacks of choice tend to be fruit and yogurt, but today I have been naughty and had white chocolate raisins . Oh and pistachio nuts. I had some of those today too. I luv 'em. Quote
Kylie Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 I love chips and chocolate but have been quite healthy at work lately. I usually have a banana for morning tea, but this week I've switched to yummy red apples. Quote
Maureen Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 right now I am snacking on krustini, which are sweet hard biscuits with raisins and almonds. They are great with morning coffee! Quote
kitty_kitty Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 We have a fantastic market on Wednesdays and Saturdays so i have of fruit including some really nice Pink Lady apples and cherries Quote
kitty_kitty Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Actually the cherries were very nice Quote
Loopyloo100 Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I've just tried, this week, SunBites - Sour Cream & Cracked Black Pepper - They are just sooooooooooo scrumptious! I'm sitting devouring a packet and just about to get another NoCaf! Quote
Kate Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I mainly snack on biscuits Custard Creams are my favourite but shortbread biscuits are good for dunking in tea Quote
Loopyloo100 Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I mainly snack on biscuits Custard Creams are my favourite but shortbread biscuits are good for dunking in tea I was just wondering: do you drink much tea or coffee and is it usually caffeinated? Quote
