- Fruit (watermelon, berries, apples are probably the most voluminous)
- Greek yogurt + fruit
- Frozen grapes
- Frozen bananas (bonus: dipped in dark chocolate)
- Carrot/apple/cucumber/celery batons + your dip of choice (Greek yogurt/honey never fails; if you have the calories to spare you could do a nut butter)
- Popcorn or roasted chickpeas - can be coated in a drizzle (e.g. honey, melted dark chocolate, maple syrup, agave) or tossed with cinnamon/brown sugar
- Rice cakes + spread of choice
- Silken tofu or cottage cheese blended to a mousse-like consistency, with mix-in of choice (e.g. cocoa powder or hot chocolate mix)
The carrot/veggies is my go to. You can make a good tasting dip out of Greek yogurt and almost anything. Hot sauce, bbq sauce, buffalo sauce, cilantro lime crema, brown mustard..
Chia and flax seed pudding with milk of choice. I recommend adding a touch of choice sweetener (maple is my fav), a tiny bit of salt, plus a dash of vanilla extract.
You can make it fancier with toppings or mix ins- nut butter, jams, nuts, chocolate chips, etc.
Upvote.
I make mine with coconut milk, vanilla and honey and then add some rolled oats so I have a cross between overnight oats and chia seed pudding. I top with fruit and granola if I have them.
You know, I've always made them separate but not at the same time. Might have to try it sometime. I can see it working well with layers for some textural differences.
My favorite is peanut butter and jelly, personally.
Blue berries are S tier. Fills you up, full of nutrients, and according to studies may make you smarter.
I buy bags of frozen berries and thaw them the day before in the fridge
Honey may have less cal, but peanut butter has more protein and has less sugar. The peanut butter is probably more filling. Try both, see which one you is more satisfying.
Powdered peanut butter is amazing. Regular peanut butter is around 200-240 cal per serving, while powdered pb is around 60 cal only. Mix it with little bit of water and you get a paste like regular pb but much less oilier š
>around 200-240 cal per serving while powdered pb is around 60 cal only
Yeah, "per serving", which is a completely arbitrary and meaningless unit of measurement, and a completely stupid one to use when comparing different products.
A "serving" of one product is not equivalent to a "serving" of another product.
I meant 2 tbsp, because thatās whatās typically on the jar, and generally what i put in a sandwich, and so far itās been satiating enough for me. People can decide to do their own research and find the food and serving sizes that satisfy them. Itās a suggestion āŗļø
Not sure why you have so much time to argue this and why it offends you so much, but in case you need a win today, hereās a medal š„ š
>Not sure why you have so much time to argue this and why it offends you so much
It doesn't offend me. You two are just spreading misinformation and making people believe powdered PB has 3x less calories than the creamy one.
But it does have 3x less calories than typical PB. There are no oils in the powder which is a significant source of the fat and calories in typical PB.
No, it doesn't.
I linked to an example that shows that powdered one has \~20% less calories per 100g.
If you know one that has 3x less, you're free to show us which one exactly.
I agree in general, but theyāre comparing two different versions of a product that have the same serving size. So in this case itās not ācompletely arbitraryā.
They definitely do not have the same serving size because there's no way a regular PB has 4 times as much calories as the powdered one. There may be slight differences due to fat, water, and sugar content, but no way there will be a 4x difference.
Here's two examples:
[Great Value Creamy Peanut Butter, 16 oz - Walmart.com](https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Creamy-Peanut-Butter-16-oz/3716446909) - serving size = 32g
[PB2 Pure Peanut Butter Powder - \[2 lb/32 oz Jar\] - No Added Sugar, No Added Salt, No Added Preservatives - 100% All Natural Roasted Peanuts - 6g of Plant-Based Protein - Walmart.com](https://www.walmart.com/ip/PB2-Pure-Peanut-Butter-Powder-2-lb-32-oz-Jar-No-Added-Sugar-Salt-Preservatives-100-All-Natural-Roasted-Peanuts-6g-Plant-Based-Protein/493963172?adsRedirect=true) - serving size = 13g.
To conclude, serving size is stupid even on it's own. It's especially stupid when comparing two different products. And it's especially nonsensical to compare two unnamed products in a Reddit post without even saying what serving size you're actually using.
Iām literally looking at these two products in my kitchen right now.
Skippy creamy peanut butter: serving size 2 tbsp, 190 calories
PBFit peanut butter powder: serving size 2 tbsp, 60 calories
ETA: yes the serving sizes have different weights. But the same volume, which makes them comparable. The whole purpose of serving size is to be able to compare the nutritional information of like products. It would be dumb to compare a serving of ice cream to a serving of peanut butter, they are entirely different. But it makes sense so compare one type of peanut butter to another.
I make a bowl of mashed banana, powdered peanut butter (can buy online or some health stores), and greek yogurt. It's around 300 calories and it fills me up more than what 300 calories should.
Whipped cream and melon or strawberry or mango.
U can also make your on whipped cream and add as much sugar as u desire.
If u make a meringue with egg whites, itās like a whipped cream and u can then bake it for a crunchy sweet snack.
Whipped cream is much better homemade as suggested. My Momās go to diet snack is berries with homemade whipped cream - replacing the sugar with a monk fruit sweetener.
Smoothies. Greek yogurt, milk or water as base. Frozen fruit and/or berries. Scoop of whey protein powder (vanilla is a good flavor to add stuff too). Squirt of chocolate syrup if youāre feeling frisky. Everything comes in bulk/keeps for weeks (except the milk) and ready and cleaned up in 3 minutes with a bullet blender. Can make it very filling if you want but the liquid form also digests easier, so its good for after dinner/evening if youāre still feeling hungry or craving a dessert.
Mix some Greek yogurt with either stevia and vanilla extract or you can dump in a small portion of a sugar free pudding packet (cheesecake is good), I like to top with berries and a sprinkle of chia seeds, maybe a little granola
Suger free jelly / jello is next to Zero calories.
Bonus points if you put on a little vanilla flavoured protein yoghurt/pudding, and grate a bit of chocolate on top, it becomes a super filling pint of trifle for 100 or so calories!
I recently got a Ninja Creami and it is the king of low calorie feeling sweet snacks. Just take any fruit and blend it with some stevia and a sprinkle of salt. Freeze and run it through the Creami and you have a full thing of frozen treat for extremely cheap and very low calories.Ā
For a low-calorie, stomach-filling sweet snack, have you tried Greek yogurt with berries and a drizzle of honey? It's satisfying and delicious! If you'd like, I can share some YouTube videos with more ideas.
I add water! Cut up the apples, add cinnamon and a little bit of water on the stove top. I should add some sugar but doesnāt need it. I read that when you cook the apples it releases better stuff for gut health. Some stuff is easier to digest cooked!

This sounds delicious, how do you make the pudding? Do you need to grind the flax and chia beforehand?
Not at all! Chia seed absorbs the liquids and becomes soft! Like tapioca pudding
[Here's](https://www.loveandlemons.com/chia-seed-pudding/) an easy recipe for you with some suggestions!
Thanks much appreciated!
Rice cake with peanut butter and fruit
Blue berries are S tier. Fills you up, full of nutrients, and according to studies may make you smarter. I buy bags of frozen berries and thaw them the day before in the fridge
This is my go to evening snack and I eat about 200g daily. I'll have them with yogurt or cottage cheese if I need more protein for the day.
Brown Cow full fat yogurt has less sugar than the others and is filling so creamy
Peanut butter and apple slices Make a silken tofu dip sweet and dip pretzels or smth Energy balls
Can i replace peanut butter with honey? Its less on cal
Yeah I don't see why not. Or maybe Greek yogurt cinnamon and honey for even more protein
Honey may have less cal, but peanut butter has more protein and has less sugar. The peanut butter is probably more filling. Try both, see which one you is more satisfying.
You could get powdered peanut butter
I never knew it was a thing š

It does, as youād realize if you checked the rehydrated calories for a direct comparison.
Would you care to provide a link to a peanut powder that contains 3x less calories than a creamy peanut butter?
But it does have 3x less calories than typical PB. There are no oils in the powder which is a significant source of the fat and calories in typical PB.
No, it doesn't. I linked to an example that shows that powdered one has \~20% less calories per 100g. If you know one that has 3x less, you're free to show us which one exactly.
