Healthy eating ideas

[Arcanegirl]

I cant manage a full meal, im only eating snacks and at the moment it all just seems to be junk.

Any ideas for simple healthy snack foods that i can make/buy?
preferably just buy cause im lazy but i can make some stuff if needed.

I am really loving Ryvita's with Philly and cut up cherry tomatoes. if you dont like ryvitas there are lots of other kinds of crisp breads out there. i know what you mena i am so lazt at the moment i have been living on spahetti hoops on toast and beans on toast, its all i can be bothered to "cook" when i go home.

I don't feel like food at all.
Cornflakes and oranges seems to be the only thing I can gear myself up to eat.
I just don't feel like anything.
I am trying to eat fruit as that seems manageable and I bought some aubergines before because I thought they would be easy to chargrill and eat.

I have never felt this crappy with my previous two pegnancies.

Eat healthy, I ate whatever I wanted And still only gained 25 pounds or so

Can you make up some pasta dishes (in large quantities) ahead of time and store them in individual portion size containers? that way you can reheat as needed

 

[Arcanegirl]

Probably could do something like that....

I am trying so hard to be good but crisps are talking to me so loudly

I have in my drawer at work loads of nuts and some dry biscuits incase I get nausea. I will try crackers. I have found cucumber slices to be a great healer for heartburn.

I also have grapes and satsumas around to tempt me away from those gorgeous crisps xxx

Maybe a jacket potato with some cheese?

 

[polo_princess]

carrots & humous? or breadsticks and dips? Pretty filling for snacks to pick at during the day.

 

[Arcanegirl]

breadsticks sounds a good idea, just gotta find some dips i like
Is there a better alternative to ritz crackers or are they fine? i like them with babybell cheese.

 

[Arcanegirl]

I know what i need to buy, a toastie machine!

Carr's wheaten crackers are delicious if you havent tried them .. like a healthier version of Ritz, still got that nice crumble in your mouth taste though

Or going on from Vickies idea of pasta you could make tuna/mayo pasta or chicken/sweetcorn pasta ... thats not too bad.
