Ok, I know some you suffer from the munchies in the evening (and I'm not talking about the drug induced type of munchies).  I love having a snack in the evening too.  Some experts say not to eat after 7:00 p.m.  Seriously!?  With my schedule, that's just not an option.  So I've learned to snack smarter.  A dozen wings right before bed, NOT smart.  Plain air popped popcorn, smart.  If you must have butter, go lightly!  I like to sprinkle Parmesan cheese on my popcorn or on the nights that I'm wanting something spicy, I drizzle Frank's Red Hot Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce, yummmmy!

If you're looking for a snack with a little more fiber, try munching on celery, carrots, cucumber or tomatoes.  Eating fruit is another way to snack smart.  Apples, pears, bananas, strawberries, and berries are a wonderful way to satisfy your sweet tooth. 

We all know the benefits of eating veggies and fruits, so go ahead and munch away.  Just remember to snack smarter!
