WELCOME, LEARN, and SHARE

15 Low-Fat Snacks

Read the label!! Stay away from artificial sweeteners whenever possible, (do you really need more chemicals in your body?) and go organic from local farmers whenever you can. Support Colorado Farmers! PRINT THIS LIST and PUT IT ON YOUR FRIDGE.

1. Fruit and vegetables raw. You add dressing or dip, you are adding fat and calories.
2. Skinless chicken breast. Grill or bake a bunch on the weekend then pack them up to take with you.
3. Ginger snaps. (my favorite cookie)
4. Non-fat organic yogurt sweetened with honey. (the one with "Mountain" in the labe...just say NO to Dannon!)
5. Baked potato with salsa and/or plain yogurt.
6. Fat-free cottage cheese
7. Pretzels
8. Tuna
9. Pickles
10. Graham crackers
11. Saltines or oyster crackers
12. Fast foods: Ok, if you're gonna eat it anyway eat the smallest burger on the menu with mustard and veggies only, NO CHEESE!!
13. Air-popped popcorn
14. Frozen frut juice bars
15. Pretzel or bagel chips

Other tip: Mustard is the condiment lowest in fat. Stay away from ketchup and dressings.
