Healthy snacks

Can anyone share their healthy snack suggestions?
I like the following but I don't know if they are healthy or not?
Olives
Sun dried tomatoes
Roasted bell peppers
Charcuterie sausages
Beef jerky
I will tag @thespiceman as I'm sure he will know the answer I hope that is OK

Grapes used in a healthy salad
Strawberries with low fat cream on a plate or as part of a salad
Cherries chopped up for a salad
Kiwi fruit half dipped in sugar
Banana used to make a old fashioned banana pudding or eaten alone
Melon split in half and munched on its own or in a salad bowl
Low fat yoghurt and nuts or mixed berries
Oranges peeled then eaten alone
Lemon or lime with hummus dip and mackerel
Radishes with tuna
Cucumber sandwiches
Pumpkin used in soup etc
Lettuce which I serve with ham or chicken
Mango with ham or beef
Baked apples and some pork or rice
Stewed pear with chicken or eggs
Celery with salmon in a toasted sandwich
Carrots with homemade no fat cheese or low fat milk
I hope this is helpful! Alternatively what about a cheese and fruit platter?
Olives, sundried tomatoes, sausages and beef jerky are all rammed with salt, so portion size is key there, and noting how much salt you have in other meals that day. Sausages & beef jerky are also pretty fatty but I'm sure you know that lol.
Really the most healthy snack is raw veg like carrot sticks, celery, cucumber etc. You can have them with a dip but make sure it's a healthy one...
Low fat soft cheese or Greek yogurt are also healthy, and can be eaten with savoury biscuits for example.
Just remember, if it tastes nice, it'll either be sugary or fatty so not healthy!
Hows the diet going @66Mustang
@woodbine, the diet is going well, thanks! I've lost over a stone since I started. I seem to be averaging about 2-3 pounds lost per week.
Haha true
