Dried fruit is one of the densest foods on the planet. Have some on hand for a quick snack anytime (just keep a close tab on your intake; it can also be calorie-packed).
Healthy additions: 1 slice whole-grain toast with 1-teaspoon marmalade or jelly, 6-ounces low fat milk
Ingredients:
5 dried apricot halves
2 tablespoons golden raisins
1/2 cup 1-percent cottage cheese
1 tablespoon muelsi or other mixed whole-grain cereal
Directions:
In a small bowl combine apricots and raisins. Add water to cover and let stand overnight (this makes the fruit extra-tender). In the morning, put the cottage cheese in a bowl. Drain the fruit and add to the cheese. Sprinkle with muesli. Recipe makes one serving.
