Share your favorite healthy snack recipe.

Lets get this board moving a little! Share your favorite healthy-healthyish snack recipe or snack idea.

I am currently hooked on apples. I can't eat a whole apple so I core and peel the apples, cut them up and freeze them in my size portions in a ziplock with diet 7-up to keep them fresh.

2 Tbsp. PHILADELPHIA Light Cream cheese Spread or Fat Free

1 medium apple, cored, cut into 8 wedges

1 Tbsp. PLANTERS Dry Roasted Peanuts, chopped

SPREAD cream cheese spread evenly onto apple wedges; sprinkle with peanuts.

Love berries and mangos. Also I really like carrots or cucumbers with hummus or this spinach dip.

Garlicky Spinach & Ricotta Dip

1 tsp olive oil

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 leek, washed and thinly sliced

2 large bunches of spinach, washed and coarsely chopped

1 cup light ricotta cheese

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp grated nutmeg

Instructions:

One - Coat a large nonstick frying pan with olive oil and set over medium heat. Add garlic and leek. Stir often until soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Add a few drops of Water if leek starts to brown too much before it softens.

Two – Increases heat to medium-high and add a few handfuls of spinach. Stir until wilted, then turn into a food processor. Continue to cook rest of spinach in small batches until all is wilted. Place in food processor. Whirl until blended – make it as chunky or fine as you like. Turn into a bowl and refrigerate until cool.

Three - Stir spinach with ricotta, sea salt and nutmeg. Taste and add more seasonings if needed. Dip will water out as it sits; stir before serving.

It really is unfortunate because although healthy, they are just (for me) very addictive and I rarely stop at a reasonable sized portion...who can eat just 8 almonds?!?!? :)

So, although my favourite, they really have become my downfall...Eve had her apple, with me, it's nuts.:eek:
