One of the secrets about weight watching is basically “Smart Snacking”. Smart snacking helps in craving control and can add “unplanned” healthy values like vitamins and minerals to our diet or weight watching lifestyle. While trying to control our craving for “something” in between meals, we must pay attention to what we choose to grab and snack, since “Non-Smart” snacking is the worst diet enemy and can lead to consuming unnecessary empty calories and fat.
My secret to smart snacking is first of all having the right components available in hand. Cherry Tomatoes for example, can be a great healthy snacking choice. Low-fat granola bar is a “must have item” in my purse and I never leave the house without one or two. However, my favorite smart and healthy snacking solutions is Celery Sticks Dipped in Light Ranch Dressing. It is unbelievable how it simply cuts my hunger for up to 2 hours!!! I`m telling you, this healthy “diet saver” is the easiest to make snack, with low-calories and best craving control abilities compare to other light snacks I have tried in the past.
Celery Sticks & Light Ranch Dressing
All you have to do is to make sure you always have celery bunch available in the fridge and that AMAZING TASTE Light Ranch Dressing by Kraft, which I found to be my preferred brand since most creamy light or fat-free ranch dressings are tasteless compare to this one!
This dressing really makes a difference and helps me enjoying this healthy snack very much- I simply wash the celery, which provides an excellent source of calcium, fiber and vitamins C, B1, B2 and B6, cut it into sticks and dip it in the light dressing!
