Hi everyone

Since having my 2nd child by c-section 6 months ago I've had a bit of a dodgy tummy. I used to be a BIG 3 meals a day kinda girl but now I can't eat big meals and have to kind of graze, or eat like 6 small meal/snacks a day. (Maybe they did one of those gastric by-passes while I wasn't watching!!!)

I'm totally unused to this way of eating and am struggling for snack ideas. I am quite happy just eating raw veg and fruit, nuts and seeds but sometimes it's nice to mix it up a bit - ya know?

I'd love to hear some ideas of what you all like to snack on. Please bear in mind I live in Australia so I probably won't be able to get a lot of US/UK brand names.

Thanks so much - hope you're all having a great day!

Some of my favorite snacks:

whole wheat pita pocket with hummus and veggies/sprouts

half a peanut butter and jelly sandwich

dry roasted soynuts

bean salad (prepared ahead of time- black beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, fresh cilantro, chopped tomato or pico de gallo... & maybe some corn if you have it)

1/2c fiber one in yogurt or soy yogurt

chopped apples and bananas with peanut butter (yum!!)

& if you are in a pinch or on the go- I love organic (or mostly organic) granola bars... Luna bars are amazing but I am not sure if they are vegan (if you are vegan that is!)

Good luck! Hope that helped some!

Pink Lady and Royal Gala apples are also supremely delicious with all-natural peanut butter FYI.
