Who wants to take a dip?
Slice up an apple and dip it in peanut butter or get some carrot and celery sticks, cucumber and bell pepper slices, sugar snap peas and cherry tomatoes and dip ‘em in some lowfat Ranch dressing, nutritious hummus, bean dip or salsa.
Baked tortilla chips and whole wheat crackers or pita triangles are perfect dippers too!
Pizza! Pizza!
Use half an English muffin, a whole pita or a tortilla as a pizza crust. Smear on a bit of tomato sauce, sprinkle it lightly with low fat mozzarella cheese, and top with chopped vegetables, and a little bit of lean meat if desired.
Heat for a few minutes in the toaster oven or microwave, and then cut the pizza into teeny-tiny triangles – YUMMY!
Chillin’ Out with Some Grapes!
Frozen grapes are cool like popsicles and sweet like candy, but they’ve got plenty of vitamins and fiber too!
