I'm new to this guild, but I thought I'd add my favorite snack to the recipe thread. =O

2 pieces of turkey breast deli meat (15 calories)[Or use any type you like]
Some spinach leaves (about five calories for one ounce)
1/8 cup of your favorite shredded cheese [I use mozzarella](40 calories)

On a microwave-safe plate, put one piece of turkey breast down. Put a layer of spinach leaves, then a bit of the cheese, another layer of spinach, and the last piece of meat on the top. Microwave for 45 seconds to a minute.

60 calories, total. It's a quick, easy snack, and very delicious. =D

They also make a great and calorie-cheap addition to sandwiches and other foods. =O

Nice to meet you! But I don't think you have the calories right. One slice of turkey breast/ lunch meat is 29 calories a piece. And there is 57 calories in one cubic inch of mozzarella.

This isn't really a recipe but it's something you can have as a little snack. I've loved it since I was a little girl. Apple cider vinegar and sliced apples. Dip the apples into the vinegar. It's delicious. It sounds nasty, I know. But try it!
