Filling Weight Loss Foods - Fabulous High Fiber Snacks and Desserts

There are many delicious low-fat, high-fiber snacks and desserts available these days in grocery stores and natural food stores. The new nutritional labeling makes it easier than ever to know what is in a product. Be sure to look for filling low-calorie foods. Also be on the look out for trans-fats! Many store bought products have this unhealthy fat lurking inside them. Usually the most filling foods have high fiber content. High fiber is key for making the hunger pains go away and for sweeping your digestive system. You also want to look for a low sugar count as well as low sodium. Too much sugar or sodium in a food will cause you to retain water and make you feel bloated.

Some of the absolute best choices are just about any kind of fruit. Strawberries, bananas, blueberries and apples are some of the most filling fruit. Mix the fruit with a cup of low-fat yogurt for added calcium and acidophiles.

Vegetables are also great to eat with hummus or a yogurt dip. Sugar snap peas, celery, carrots and cauliflower are all easy to pack and eat. A little bit of peanut or almond butter is tasty and nutritious on celery stalks.

Homemade snacks are great too. It's easy to make homemade applesauce. All you do is peel and cut apples (Granny Smith is great because they are tart), put them in a baking dish, add honey or agave syrup and sprinkle cinnamon on top. Mix well and bake in the oven at 350* degrees for about ½ hour or until tender. Delicious!

Cookies are easy to make healthy! Old Fashioned Molasses cookies are a fantastic treat and so good for you to! So are Chewy Oatmeal-raisin cookies. The best way to make a cookie healthy is use honey or agave syrup for the sugar substitute. Also, use unbleached flour or whole wheat pastry flour instead of bleached white flour. Applesauce or yogurt is a good substitute for oil and or butter.

For desserts, a fruit crisp or cobbler is easy and delicious! If you like chocolate, these Dutch cocoa fudge brownies will surprise you with their rich chocolate flavor and fudge like texture. They're a fast and simple treat. Combine 2 tablespoons butter, 1 cup of sugar, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 egg, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla in a bowl and mix. Then slowly beat in ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder and ¾ whole-wheat pastry flour. Bake for 25 minutes in a 350* degree preheated oven. Quite a treat!
