I peel a jicama, cut it in half and then use my mandolin to slice each half. I sprinkle the slices with lime juice, put in a sandwich bag and leave in frig until cool and crisp. Wonderful snack! I also sprinkle slices with cinnamon for a different taste.

I have read that putting a wet sponge into a zip lock baggie and freezing it it good for then putting in to lunches as the sponge soaks back up the water as it defrosts.

My husband and I do lots of day trips on our own and with a group we are members of.
I always pack my insulated lunch bag with a home made ice pack, crushed ice in double bagged sandwich size zipper baggies, this keeps the melted ice from leaking out. I pack a mid morning and mid afternoon snack, both being a protein and veggie combo. We only bring water along for drinking and of course our Coleman water jug for refilling. I have lost 19 lbs with 34 more to lose. I gained my excess weigh over 30 years of mindless eating. I am aiming to make my goal weight in 24 months.

I was hoping this would have some options for me, I have IBS and can't eat eggs, raisins, nuts, tuna or granola and hate bananas & yogurt :(

I'm pleased to see that a lot of the items on this list I already have in my cupboards.

Some of the ideas I would consider to be a meal rather than a snack, for me at any rate.

But I guess in that case it's easy to make half portions.

Always surprised that these articles have so many good ideas I never thought of... wish SPARKPEOPLE would include some of these choices on the meal plans. Not enough choices so I freeform and that's generally when I get off track and swing too far in one direction ie carbs
