More than 200 recipes for snacks that are nutritious, delicious, and guilt-free!

No matter what the diet plan, consuming fewer calories is the key to losing weight–which is why prepackaged 100-calorie snack foods are proliferating in stores. This unique cookbook offers dieters hundreds of homemade 100-calorie snacks that are tastier, healthier, and more satisfying than store-bought. Illustrated with color photographs throughout, the book presents options for every craving and every diet program–from salty, cheesy, and crunchy to salads, protein, and cookies–including lots of choices that require only minimal prep time. From Spiced Popcorn and Pickled Cherries to Curried Tuna and Spinach Quesadillas, these snacks are the perfect between-meal treats–and can even be combined to make a complete meal.
