Thoughtless snacking between meals can ruin the best-intentioned diet -- but with The 100-Calorie Snack Cookbook, readers can satisfy their cravings without sabotoging their diets. Research has shown that a low-calorie diet, in conjunction with exercise, is the best way to keep weight off -- but who knows whatreally constitutes 100 calories? Sally Sampson does, and in this book, she shares more than 200 great snack ideas that take the guesswork out of healthy snacking. Instead of purchasing an over-priced, over-packaged, chemical-laden 100-calorie package of cookies or chips, why not whip up some Spiced Popcorn or Pickled Cherries instead? Sampson provides simple, creative recipes for every possible craving: salty, crunchy, carb, vegetable, liquid, protein, and sweet.In addition to the recipes, the book also includes useful lists to help readers choose the healthiest no-prep-required snacks when time is limited. For example, did you know that for 100 calories, you could have three plums, five apricots, twelve spicy almonds, three graham crackers, or two cups of arugula? And if you have a few minutes to prepare a simple recipe, Sampson provides recipes for everything from dips, salads, and soups to cookies, cocktails, and evenmini-meals such as Curried Tuna and Spinach Quesadillas. Choose just one for a quick 100-calorie snack, or mix and match a few for a low-calorie meal. Packed with healthy-eating tips, crave-worthy recipes, and more than 100 color photos, The 100-Calorie Snack Cookbook is the ultimate guide to snacking the healthy way.
