I am currently hooked on apples. I can't eat a whole apple so I core and peel the apples, cut them up and freeze them in my size portions in a ziplock with diet 7-up to keep them fresh.

2 Tbsp. PHILADELPHIA Light Cream cheese Spread or Fat Free

1 medium apple, cored, cut into 8 wedges

1 Tbsp. PLANTERS Dry Roasted Peanuts, chopped

SPREAD cream cheese spread evenly onto apple wedges; sprinkle with peanuts.

my favorite snack is blueberries in milk with artificial sweetner

Any kind.

It really is unfortunate because although healthy, they are just (for me) very addictive and I rarely stop at a reasonable sized portion...who can eat just 8 almonds?!?!?

So, although my favourite, they really have become my downfall...Eve had her apple, with me, it's nuts.:eek:

Those all sound yummy.

I like to take the prepacked imitation crab meat and wrap a peice of low fat motzerella or gouda around it.

I also like a plum

Or an apple with a little Peanut Butter.

That crab and cheese sounds good. Gonna have to try it. I eat turkey that way with Lite Jarlsburg.
