Any ideas for relatively low-calorie filling snacks?

I've just made some vegetable soup. This had carrots, onions, celery, mushrooms, parsnip, potato, corgette, two stock cubes (for two portions), tomato paste, garlic, herbs and spices. I find this filling and ' a meal'. I didn't eat bread or anything else with it.

Occasionally I will make a vegetable stew with similar ingredients but less stock and processed differently.

I like gherkins, and do eat crackers with gherkins and sliced tomatoes on them.

Any other suggestions?

Cornichons and onions. I love raw onion.

I googled cornichons only to find out that they were gherkins by another name.

Raw onion? Hmmm ... not for me. But i like steamed miniature onions, and perhaps a selection of steamed vegetables would be another relatively low calorie meal.

Melon is low calorie, but I just don't like melons. Apples seem to be reasonably low calorie, e.g. they have half the calories of bananas and about a sixth of the calories of a similarly sized mars bar.

Popcorn from a machine ( quite cheap in Argos).
Tesco's flavoured rice cakes - salt n vinegar ones are the lowest fat, some pretzels are ok, they vary so I read the labels.
Pickles are wonderful as you know.
Tesco's own light options have some biscuits ( like garibaldis) they're good, plus their version of Philadelphia is the lowest fat I've seen.

Crudite. Any raw veg of your choice and a low fat dip.

Hummus or guacamole with veg crudités make a healthy and filling snack. Both dips are relatively high in calories, but you'll feel full far sooner, so won't eat as much.

- Rice cakes
- Melba toast with Light Philadelphia
- Wafer thin ham

ryvita or crackerbread with philadelphia, onions, and peppers quavers, french fries, skips, snack a jacks ... i like my crisps, wraps with chicken and lots of salad

Neither low calorie nor healthy.

I do want to try some ryvita. I'm not sure when I last ate some. Something lower calorie which is functionally similar to hummous would be good. Or perhaps very thinly spread hummous.

Pumpernickel and salsa.

I had forgotten about pumpernickel. Lidls do a lovely sunflower seed one.

Or home made pesto/tapenade.

Thanks s-u-l and everyone.

I've got an unopened jar of olives that could be used for tapenade. And I'm thinking that thinly spread mustard may be a good way to ring the changes too.

Thinking further, I think I've only eaten sauerkraut once, but I liked it.

They do packs of melba toast in Morrisons and they are something like 12 calories a slice. They are actually quite nice.

was just pointing out for a snack they are lowest calorie crisps

This looks really nice, but it's got even more calories in it than hummous.

Aubergine Pickle

I see those in the 99p store fairly often. Mango is a good one.

celery and cucumbers are low calorie

A lovely tzatziki.

I love roasted celery.

I'm not a great fan of celery and cucumbers eaten raw. But chopped with other things in a salad - much better.

Apparently cucumber is negative calorie; you burn more calories eating them than you digest.

I'm not a great lover of raw celery but would never leave it out stocks.

crabsticks.

I love Sauerkraut, in fact I had some for lunch today. Barely any calories in the Sauerkraut, but a fair few in the big fat Bratwurst and sub roll I enjoyed it with.

Actually they are in the 99 calories or less range Walkers slapped on the bags. They are much better for you than most cereal bars.

Tis a myth.
