2 29 NOURISHING SNACKS TO BEAT CRAZY CRAVINGS PRINTABLE When was the last time you had a food craving? Mine tend to appear in the evenings as I am relaxing. Cravings happen even to the healthiest of us. Often, when a craving hits in the afternoon or the evening after dinner, we get the urge to snack. Snacking can be a bad habit to get into, because the snacks we choose are often junky, un-nutritious, and high in calories, sugar, or fat. The trick to snacking without piling on the pounds is to find healthy alternatives to the regular snacks you might normally reach for. Usually, when we get a craving it is for either something sweet (chocolate!), savory (potato chips!), creamy (ice cream!), or crunchy (crisps!). Obviously, my examples are foods you shouldn t eat all the time if you want to be trim and healthy. But that doesn t mean you have to fight your cravings for the rest of your life. Instead, you just need to substitute!

3 Next time you get a craving for something sweet, why not try: fresh, whole fruit apples and almond butter dried fruit green smoothies banana ice cream (peel a banana, freeze, blend in a food processor with nuts, berries or raisins,and serve) dates stuffed with almond butter or other nut butter organic dark chocolate chips or carob chips For your savory cravings, try these healthy alternatives: Olives Pickles and pickled vegetables, such as carrot, daikon, beets, and lotus root Tabouli, hummus Steamed vegetables with tamari/shoyu or umeboshi vinegar Freshly made salsa or guacamole Sauerkraut (will also knock your sweet craving right out!) Salted edamame Your creamy cravings can be met by eating: smoothies avocados rice pudding dips and spreads, like hummus and baba ghanoush puréed soups puddings made with silken tofu, avocado, or mashed banana mashed sweet potatoes coconut milk

4 Finally, don t cave and reach for the Pringles when you can Eat these crunchy (but still healthy) snacks: apples frozen grapes rice cakes light popcorn or plain popcorn (use coconut oil to pop in a covered pan) carrots (particularly the sweet, organic baby carrots) celery and nut butter raw, unsalted nuts like cashews, almonds, and walnuts Don t fight your craving. Instead, listen to what it is your body wants specifically and choose the healthier option that will be good to your waistline. What kind of cravings do you get? And what food satisfies your cravings? If you are really struggling with out of control cravings and nothing from this healthy list will do, I ve got good news for you. I was once struggling desperately with chocolate cravings and none of the items from this list would satisfy my cravings apart from chocolate. But the problem was one piece of chocolate was never enough. I had to eat a massive bar or a whole box at once. And if I got the taste of chocolate in my mouth I d turn into the chocolate monster. If I had no more chocolate in the house, I d jump in my car and go and buy a box of chocolate. It really was out of control and this problem lasted a year and a half until I found something that could help. This free quiz was the starting point. I promise you, you are going to be blown away by the revelation you are going to receive after going through this free quiz. Finally put an end to your out of control cravings just like I did by clicking here to take the quiz. Have a healthy day! Talk soon, Katherine Controlling the Cravings Kyle
