I recommend cottage cheese for an alternative protein source. I'm having an awful lot of it right now...

  That's a good point. Some other tricks we used for low-cost and healthy snacking: - pick crunchy veggies (carrots, peppers, cucumbers), slice into strips, package into small ziplock bags (prep ahead of time) - hummus, though make sure to buy larger sizes, since they tend to gouge the prices on the smaller sizes - peanut butter and celery (oldie but goodie) - creamed spinach (frozen), can be eaten straight up or as a dip for veggies; I also used to add a little low-fat cheddar cheese

    I cannot eat celery. I think I loose more calories then I gain eating that stuff, however, the rest of this list makes sense. I already eat hummus all he time, and find it's a great snack food to keep energy up.
