No need for scooby snacks when eating clean. To stick with it, you need a wide variety of snacks, breakfasts, lunches and desserts that actually taste good to you.

Peanuts n grapes....tastes like a handful of pb and j. Also get skim milk, ice chips, plain yogurt, natural peanut butter, cocoa powder, half a pouch of instant oatmeal n blend it up w some splenda into a milk shake.
Edamame w lots of salt instead of chips....
Thanks for the input .. I been hitting the coconut water and eating clean. Master Renato said to eat Acai' , but that stuff makes me gassy and the peeps on the mat "no like my fren" ;)
Not too sure about lots of salt when you try to eat clean.Quote:

If you aren't hardcore like me (jk) and can't eat your oatmeal raw put some honey on it because it's a natural source of glucose and contains vitamins and minerals.
Thanks, keep em' coming guys .. Everyone will benefit from your input
Salt is important when training, BUT, most processed food has waaaay to much sodium, even for athletes. This would include spaghetti sauce, soups, frozen food especially.
Girlfriend has me pretty hooked on her smoothies, pick up the large bag of frozen mixed fruit from walmart / sams club or we throw in what ever fruit is maybe getting close to its use or throw in the garbage time around the house. Add in some yogurt, I always try and use the most natural yogurt i can find, none of the crap with aspertame. Then ill mix in some good all natural OJ, maybe some pineapple mango juice stuff like that. Blend it up and serve, I add in protein from time to time cant even tell its in the smoothie usually. They always turn out a bit different which keeps them interesting.
I also make home made gernola bars and ill grind up dried fruit to add into them, often times that ends up in my yogurt I am eating. Im also a big fan of spicing up my foods with some salsa, can add it to eggs, tacos, fish, anything really and it taste great.
I also make a peanut butter chicken, I use olive oil and all natural peanut butter or almond butter. Melt it down in the microwave and baste my chicken with it. toss the chicken onto some tinfoil and throw it on the grill, ill baste it as it cooks some more. Take it and then sear it on the grill and serve. It keeps the chicken super moist and taste great. Some times ill take just a little brown sugar and sprinkle that across the chicken before I see it. It gives it a nice crispy black sear across the chicken that way.
I like to munch on pumpkin seeds from time to time as well with chili pepper seasoning on them instead of so much salt.
I munch on hard boiled eggs, nuts and fruit, yoghurt, natural peanut butter with whole grain bread, mandarins, apple and banana and choc protien shakes.
Apples and peanut butter
