I love to snack. There’s something comforting about it. When you’re on a diet why do they deprive you of your snacks? It’s almost cruel and unusual punishment, if you ask me. I am a veteran dieter. I have been on a constant diet for most of my life. I have found out in my long weight loss journey that the more the diet restricts, the harder it is to stay on it. I think you should have a wide variety of food options and they should not only be healthy but delicious. The taste buds do rule the day. Let me give you some smart low fat snack ideas.

For a on the go snack, sprinkle cayenne pepper on top of one ounce of dry-roasted peanuts and enjoy.
