Low Calorie Snacks

We will list the snacks and the calories, then below that discuss more details about the food, recipes and extra information on the snack.

As an example a small banana will have a lot less of calories of a large banana. Or a tin of tuna in Springwater will have a lot less calories then tuna in oil.

List Healthy Snacks and Low Calorie

List Healthy Snacks and low calorie

To work in with a meal plan, select one, two or three snacks for the day. Ideally include one fruit, one dairy and one healthy fats options, so you are getting a wide variety of different nutritional value foods.

You might rotate the snacks through like, fruit, vegetables, healthy fats and wholegrains for your taste buds as well as nourishment.

For some of these snacks you can increase the portion size or add extra toppings or ingredients to make a side dish or meal with them.

All these healthy snacks and low calorie snacks can be brought from Woolworths, Coles, IGA and Aldi supermarkets.

Some healthy options are also great to include in your child’s lunchbox for a varied treat.

If the weight loss plan calls for 200 Calorie (837 Kilojoules.) snacks, just double the 100 ones, or mix and match a few food items. As an example, Greek yogurt with strawberries.

Here is some information on the low calorie snacks, recipes, ideas and some options:

 

Apple

Low calorie snack - apple

A medium size apple is under 100 Calories and is a great convenient snack.

Don’t be too concerned about what type of apple it is, such as Granny Smith, Fuji, Red delicious, etc. Most of them are similar in total calories.

Tip – An apple corer and slicer can save a lot of time. (You can use it for pears as well.)

 

Kiwi fruit

Kiwi fruit

Kiwi fruit (Chinese Gooseberries) is a delicious snack and high in vitamin C.

To save time and get some good fibre and roughage, eat it with the skin on. Just wash it first, and slice the end cores out.

Kiwi fruit also goes well in a fruit smoothie.

 

Snow peas or Sugar snap peas

Snow peas and sugar snap peas are truly lovely in a healthy Asian stir fry, or just a snack by themselves. They also go well with dips like Hummus.

 

Low Calorie Ice-cream

Yummy, delicious and all under 120 Calories for a Skinny Cow ice cream. There are plenty of other low calorie ice cream varieties, plant based and high protein options as well like:

  • Halo Top
  • Fro Pro
  • Denado
  • Muscle Nation
  • Artic Zero
  • Fit Lato
  • Bulla Light 98% Fat Free
  • Tilly’s Guilt Free
  • Gym Bod

While ice cream is possible not the healthiest choice, these do make a nice occasional treat that are low in calories, but high in the Yum factor.

You can find low calorie ice cream at Woolworths, Coles and IGA supermarkets.

For a list of nutritional information and calories listed to compare the ice creams sold at Woolies, click on – Woolworths Low Calorie Ice Cream

 

Pear

Pears are nice sliced up and put in oats or on top of protein pancakes. You can also place them on crispbreads, or toast.

Microwave them with some honey, berries and cinnamon for a sweet dessert.

 

Orange

Add oranges to a smoothie or salad, or simply eat it on its own for a sweet snack.

 

Mandarins

Tasty and convenient as a snack or even add them to salads. Ideal in the child’s lunch box for a healthy treat.

 

Yogurt

A yogurt is a good source of calcium and added protein.

With the endless varieties and brands you do have to double check the nutritional panel to find the total calories and macros to work in with your daily calories.

For watching the excess calories, chose a low fat variety.

Add chopped up fruit to the yogurt for extra taste, nutrition or added calories.

 

Greek yogurt low fat

Greek yoghurt is very tasty, healthy and versatile.

Mix some chocolate protein powder in for a great creamy chocolate taste. Or mix it in with berries, or on cereal.

Use the Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream. Put the Greek yogurt on baked potatoes instead of sour cream. It also works well as a creamy pasta sauce for Carbonara.

Chose the low fat variety in a good quality brand.

 

Almonds

Nuts and almonds are high in healthy fats. But they are also high in calories, so you do have to be careful how much you have.

Weight loss tip – Don’t sit down with the whole bag, otherwise it is too easy to eat more then you need. Just measure out what you need, then put the bag away before you start to eat them.

 

Protein bars

Best Low Calorie Protein Bars

Protein bars are convenient and some are pretty darn tasty.

However, you do have to look in the nutritional panel for this one, as the size and total calories of the different brands very immensely.

You have protein bars ranging from weight loss bars, low carb bars, energy bars, meal replacement bars, to weight gain protein bars.

Double check the nutritional panel and look for a bar ideally under 150 calories for a total serving if you are on a weight loss diet.

(Make sure that it doesn’t say two servings in the wrapper or bar. Otherwise you might have both servings and double you calorie intake.)

There are plenty of good brands like Body Science (BSC), Aussie Bodies, Quest, Muscle Nation and Musashi protein bars for all tastes, types and calorie ranges.

Low carb, Keto, high protein, vegan and gluten free bars are all available.

Celery

Celery is very low in calories and high in water content.

Peanut butter and hummus can up the taste, but also up the calories, so limit the amount with dips and spreads.

 

Hommus

Hommus dip low calorie with carrot sticks, cucumber and celery

Use it for a dip with green, red bell pepper slices, green beans, cucumber, snow peas, carrot sticks and celery sticks for a tasty snack.

Look for the light or low fat variety of hummus and dips for lower calories.

Weight Loss Tip – Instead of dipping the carrot sticks into the whole container, take the controlled portion out of hummus container. That way you are not tempted to eat more than the portion recommended and hence total calories.

 

Chick peas.

Bake them in the oven and have them cold or hot for a healthier option snack.

Add some herbs and spices to them for some extra flavour like paprika.

 

Green beans

Mix these up with celery and carrots sticks for a delicious uncooked treat. Or a side dish for a main meal.

 

Green Smoothie

Fruit Smoothies are great, however it is easy to overdo the calories in them. So a green smoothie with a base of mixed salad leaves or spinach, cuts down on the calories.

Here is one recipe that is nutritious and low in calories and with fibre.

If it is too bitter, reduce the celery and spinach for now. As your taste buds get used of it, you can add more greens to it.

To make it a bit sweeter, add some more mixed berries and skim milk.

Green Smoothie Recipe: Calories Kilojoules
Strawberries. 1 cup. 49 205
Spinach leaves. 1 cup 7 29
Celery (1/2 stalk) 4 17
Psyllium husk. 1 tbsp.  5g. 10 42
Iced water – to cover ingredients. N/A N/A

 

Mix it up in a blender or mixer.

Add some ice cubes for a colder taste.

If you can spare the calories, add a kiwi fruit. Or add half an apple or half a banana to it.

Tip – If you have calories to spare or want more protein, add some protein powder to it. Vanilla flavour protein goes well with a lot of smoothie types and flavours.

(I love the banana protein powder in it, with Skim milk.)

You can just use half a scoop if you still want it lower in calories.

 

Skim milk

Skim milk. Low calorie snack

With only 85 Calories, a glass of skim milk is a good source of extra protein.

For athletes, growing teens and bodybuilders, skip the light milk and go for the full cream milk.

 

Capsicum (Bell peppers)

Green or red capsicum (bell peppers) are a healthy snack by themselves. Or you can add it to some green beans, carrot sticks, cucumber and celery with dip for a bigger snack or meal.

Capsicum is great for a home-made pizza, or side salad.

Yellow bell peppers have a very nice sweet taste as well.

 

Carrot sticks

Another healthy snack that you can have raw is carrot sticks. Eat them with a dip, or just by themselves.

For something different, slice the carrot down the middle into quarter strips and bake it for roast carrot.  Add some cracked pepper, or seasoning before roasting and you have some delicious roasted carrot that is healthy.

 

Blue Berries

Add them to smoothies, porridge or just eat them by themselves. They are delicious on top of pancakes, or on crispbreads with cottage cheese.

Add ½ a cup of blueberries to some low fat Greek yogurt for a filling and nutritious snack.

 

Strawberries and Raspberries

Strawberries, raspberries and mixed berries are so tasty and flexible with foods. Add them to cereal, smoothies and desserts, or by themselves.

Berries can go off quickly, so buying a frozen pack of mixed berries or strawberries is great for convenience.

 

Boiled egg

A good protein source and filling, eggs can easily be worked into a diet and are ideal for a snack. Have them cold or hot.

Slice one up and place on a Crispbread with some cracked pepper for a snack.

Tip – Instead of just boiling up one, cook a couple at a time and then place in the fridge.

Watermelon

Another high water content fruit that is great to eat on its own, or added to a smoothie, or fruit salad.

You can also freeze it for an icy pole.

 

Cantaloupe

When in season cantaloupe, (rock melon) is another healthy fruit option. Add to a salad, yogurt, or add it to your breakfast cereal.

Use cookie cutters to cut it up in different shapes like stars and hearts, to get the children interested in eating it.

 

Corn Puffs

For a different occasional treat, the For Goodness Snacks Corn Puffs Roast Chicken has just 76 Calories (320 Kilojoules.)

The serving size is 17.5g which is half a bag. (If you eat the whole bag 35g, the calories will double.)

These Corn puffs are soy and gluten free and air popped.

 

Mixed Salad

A cup full of mixed salad, or spinach leaves is very low in calories and can work with a lot of other foods with it. Some options to add to the salad are:

Cherry tomatoes
Cucumber
Onion
Olives
Sliced capsicum (bell peppers.)
Mango
Scallions (spring onions.)
Orange slices
Carrot sticks
Corn kernels
Chili flakes
Beets
Radish

Add some, lemon juice, wholegrain mustard seed, lime juice, jalapenos, for a spicy mixed salad.

Here is a simple low calorie mixed salad recipe, at just 68 Calories or around 281 kilojoules.

Easy Mixed Salad Recipe: Calories Kilojoules
Spinach leaves. 2 cups 14 58
Cherry tomatoes. (1 Cup.) 27 112
Cucumber. 1/2 cup slices. 8 33
Capsicum. 1/2 sliced. 16 65
Lemon juice. 1 tbsp. 3 13

 

To add some extra calories or for a bigger meal, add: Feta cheese, boiled egg, sun dried tomatoes, or a small tin of salmon or tuna. (In Springwater.)

 

Cucumber

Add it to salads, in rings, or slice it into sticks for dips. Mix it with carrot sticks and celery for a very low calorie healthy snack.

 

Popcorn

This snack might come as a surprise to some, but it can be healthy. Limit the salt and just liked a baked potato, don’t slather it in butter.

Try adding minimal calorie toppings and seasoning to the popcorn, like paprika to it.

 

Cottage Cheese

Cottage cheese makes a tasty snack, or a meal on some toast with pear on it.

Add cottage cheese to crispbreads, breakfast bowls, fruit or dips. Or use it for added taste to Italian type dishes.

 

Tuna

Tinned tuna is ideal for salads and toppings for toast, and wraps.

Be careful with the canned tuna in oil, as these are higher in fat and calories. Select the tuna in Springwater tins for low calorie options.

If you want more flavour, add herbs and spice like: pepper, lemon juice, chili flakes,

Combine a small 70g – 95g tin with a couple of crispbreads for a healthy filling snack

 

Salmon

Similar to tuna in its versatility as a snack or part of a main, salmon in Springwater is ideal for salads and toppings.

 

Crispbreads

Low fat crispbread with cottage cheese and tomato

There are many brands and varieties of Crispbreads and some are high in calories. So choose a crispbread type like a Wasa Light Rye or Arnott’s Cruskits Crispbread 98% Fat Free.

For the toppings you can add:

Honey
Jam (Jelly spread)
Tomatoes
Pear (with nut meg or cinnamon)
Cottage Cheese
Light cheese slices
Blueberries & Cottage Cheese
Vegemite

For a higher calorie meal, add turkey slices with cottage cheese on the crispbreads. (I love adding chili flakes as well and chives. Or tomato and cracked pepper.)

Cucumber slices go well on crispbreads and banana. (I didn’t mean cucumber and banana together. But I haven’t tried that, so I guess it could work?)

A small tin of Tuna goes very nicely on top of crispbreads with some lettuce. (Tuna in Springwater, not oil.)

For more information on low calorie crispbread and Cruskit recipes, click on – Crispbread Recipe Ideas (Under 100 and 200 Calories)

 

Grapes

A lot of grapes are seasonal, but are very tasty when in season. A cup full of grapes is around 110 Calories, or 462 Kilojoules.

 

Banana

Bananas have received a bad rap lately, but they are great fruit choice for a snack and are versatile with other foods.

Add slices to custard, on crispbreads, yogurts, pancakes, toast or use in a smoothie.

Tip – Use half in the smoothie and place the other half in the freezer for a cold smoothie instead of adding ice.

 

Multigrain Bread

Yes, you can have bread for a snack and still lose weight, as long as you don’t overdo the toppings and condiments.

The old saying, it is the spread, not the bread that adds up the calories

A single piece of bread is around 82 Calories, depending on brand, type and ingredients.

Select the wholemeal, wholegrain and multigrain type breads for a healthier choice of fibre.

Just like popcorn and baked potato, don’t smother with butter or margarine on it.

You do have to watch the amount of butter you spread on it. Otherwise the calories soon ad up.

 

Salsa dip

Use it for a dip for cucumber, carrot sticks, celery and bell peppers.

For a dip, salsa is very low in calories, however you do have to watch the salt intake.

Just like the hummus dip, so you are not tempted to eat the whole container, just scoop out the measured amount first in another container. Then put the rest away in the fridge.

 

Low Fat Peanut Butter

While you do have to watch the calories or peanut butter, it is certainly tasty. Use on wholegrain bread, celery sticks, crispbreads and add it to oats.

For growing teenagers, athletes and bodybuilders use a good quality peanut butter to add more calories on their meals. Add the peanut butter to protein shakes, oats and desserts for extra calories.

 

Mango

Another refreshing fruit that can be eaten by itself or added to salads or smoothies.

Mango also can go in yogurt, chia pudding and porridge.

 

Cherry tomatoes

Cherry tomatoes

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and use on crispbread’s, or eat them by themselves.

Or add them to the healthy platter of snacks like celery, carrot sticks and green beans with hummus.

 

Rice cakes

Add toppings like: cottage cheese, banana, honey, pear or apple slices, cherry tomatoes, hummus, etc.

To add extra calories like protein and fat, add avocado, olives, sliced turkey cold meat, tuna, salmon, peanut butter, nut butter or cheese.

 

Custard Low Fat

For around 100 grams of low fat custard, you get just 99 Calories (416 kJ) of a delicious snack or dessert. Have it warm or cold or add some pear slices or mixed berries for a tasty treat.

Banana and custard goes well together.

Vanilla protein powder or banana flavoured protein is a great way to mix it in with the custard for extra protein. Although it will add extra calories as well.

Weight Loss Tip – So you don’t over pour the calories, weigh it in a cup once and then in future, you just pour it to that same volume amount to save time.

(Or put your empty bowl on the scales, press tare, and then pour the custard in to weigh it.)

 

Pineapple

Refreshing and sweet, pineapple is a very versatile fruit for smoothies, salads or eat it by itself. Pineapple is nice in stir fries like sweet and sour varieties.

Be careful with canned pineapple in syrup as it can add extra calories.

Because it is so nice and sweet, it is easy to overeat pineapple, so limit the amount, otherwise the calories can add up easy.

 

Green Tea

To get you between meals, a cup of Green Tea is a very low calorie option. Great for a cold day as well.

For fasting diets, green tea can be used as it doesn’t have many calories.

(Technically in the fasting phase, consuming any calories shouldn’t be allowed.) But if it gives you some comfort and taste, then a mere few calories per cup might be acceptable to your plan.

However, watch the flavoured varieties for fasting like lemon, ginger teas, as they can have slightly more calories in them without realizing it. (Although it is minimal.)

Also adding cream, milk, sugar to the tea can increase the calories.

Green tea is a good drink to have before weight training, or a workout because of the caffeine. (Although it generally has less caffeine than a coffee or black tea.)

 

Apricots, Nectarines and Plums

Stone fruits like apricots, nectarines and plums, although seasonal are another option to work in with a low calorie meal plan, or healthy eating regime.

Stone fruits are ideal for added toppings for yogurt, cereal and smoothies.

You can even stew plums for a healthy desert.

 

Fava Bean snacks

Fava bean snacks low calorie

Packets of Fava beans come in a wide range of flavours and varieties. Check the nutritional panel for the calories per serve.

 

Olives

Green or black olives can be added to a salad, or some people even have them by themselves.

 

Cup of soup

Ideal for cold mornings, a cup of soup has plenty of options and varieties for any taste buds.

Be careful with the creamy type soups as they can hide a lot of calories.

 

Canned peaches.

Canned peaches and tinned fruit is handy with cereal, muesli, desserts, or a perfect snack that you can have by itself.

 

Vegemite

More of a condiment then a snack by itself, but vegemite makes the list as it is too Australian not to.

Vegemite on toast, or Crispbreads is an easy snack. Even try it on celery or carrot sticks. (Be careful of adding too much margarine or butter with it though.)

 

Low Calorie Custard Toast

Low Calorie Custard Toast

For something a bit different check out the 3 recipes at – High Protein Custard Toast – Plus Low Calorie Recipe

One custard yogurt toast recipe is only 106 Calories. (400 Kilojoules.)

 

Jelly

Another, maybe not healthy snack but a good treat for the amount of calories is jelly.

Add some sliced up fruits on top of it for a healthier option.

(Don’t make it with kiwi fruit or pineapple in it, as it may not set properly.)

 

Corn Cob

Steam, boil, fry or BBQ, corn on the cob is versatile and can be used as part of a main meal or a separate snack by itself at just around 42 Calories, (176 Kilojoules) for a 50g Cob.

 

Corn Kernels.

Heat it up in the microwave, add a touch of cracked pepper for a tasty snack. Add corn kernels to a salad or as a side dish.
