Best snacks to have at night

Best snacks to have at night

Date: 2012-12-06
Are you a late-night snacker? While the myth that late-night eating is bad for your diet has been disproved, that doesn't mean that all snacks are created equal. The best late-night snacks are easy to digest carbs are good, but not too much fiber, protein, or fat so you don't lay awake from feeling too full.

But if your late-night eating includes toasted cheese, ice cream, or gobs of peanut butter, here are a few healthier options for you. Make these ahead of time for quick snacking when the mood strikes!

Toasted cheese may be comforting, but the calorie and fat counts can get high, and fast. Instead, fill up your late-night sandwich with lean protein like turkey, add a few leafy greens, and top with just a bit of cheese. Make it Panini-style, and you'll still be able to enjoy the best part about a toasted cheese sandwich, but more healthfully.

Sometimes you need ice cream, but if you find yourself constantly reaching for the pint, try making a few creamy snacks that'll still satisfy you. Top a bowl of Greek yogurt with fresh fruit, or stir in frozen berries to make a semi frozen treat. Or, keep a few yogurt containers in your freezer. At night, thaw for a few minutes and add a drizzle of chocolate, fruit, or other toppings for a quick and easy snack.
