Healthy Snacks!

To avoid the sugar rush/crash that things like chocolate bars cause I picked up a little tidbit from GC.

Check the label and do the math: Protein + Total Fat (both) + Fibre should be greater than Total Carbs.

Found out the nut/fruit bars that I always had with me during rounds failed this. Watching for a replacement snack for out there.
 
I like apples and bananas, my next choice would be trail mix.
 
Apples with Peanut Butter, popcorn (we use a receipe similar to "Skinny Pop"), homemade turkey jerky and regular jerky, home made granola bars, smoothies, bananas, peanuts, rice cakes w/peanut butter, dried fruit, and greek yogurt is what I try to snack on.

Blueberries with a dollop of sour cream. Could eat that all day, every day. Matter of fact, think I'm going to buy plenty of both ...

As another snack, I go cottage cheese with some sliced peaches. Try to buy them without the heavy/light syrup.

Also, unsweetened, shredded coconut, mixed with plain yogurt.
 
I like to eat really any kind of fruit. Can't go wrong there. I also really like turkey jerky. I want to get a dehydrator to make my own jerky.
 
On the course, I'll have a serving size of Cheez-It trail mix. Give me the little boost I need to keep me from starving. Probably not the healthiest, but better than a hot dog and bag of chips? I'll usually pack a PB&J, too.

Off the course, I love unsweetened applesauce.
 
I just had a bag of spicy pumpkin seeds - they were really good, and about 150 cal for something that was pretty filling as a snack.
 
I will snack on Cuties (little oranges) and banana's if in a hurry. If not in a hurry will grab a can of peaches or pears.

Those sound nice!
 
Generally go with apple, banana, or some berries. The lady friend has been making some homemade granola bars lately though and they're fantastic, think they're

Granola, chee seeds, peanuts, peanut butter, honey, dried cranberries, and a touch of dark chocolate.

Lots of good choices in this thread, and a lot that I have and do for myself. Like bananas, cuties, almonds, and nuts. I'm a fan of almonds and cashews, as I do have a minor peanut allergy.
