5 Healthy Snacks Under 150 Calories

1. Greek yogurt + berries

A small bowl of Greek yogurt with fresh berries is a protein-packed, antioxidant-rich snack that keeps you full without a big calorie load.

• Typical serving: about ½ cup plain Greek yogurt + ¼ cup berries

• Calories: roughly 120–140 depending on brand and berry amount

• Why it’s great: protein stabilizes blood sugar; berries add sweetness and fiber with minimal added sugar.

• Tip: stick to plain yogurt to avoid hidden sugars, then add a small drizzle of honey only if needed.

2. Apple slices + peanut butter (light portion)

This classic combo satisfies sweet cravings and provides a good balance of carbs, fiber, and healthy fats — as long as the peanut butter portion stays small.

• Typical serving: ½ medium apple + 1 teaspoon peanut butter

• Calories: about 100–130

• Why it’s great: fiber from the apple keeps you satisfied; a tiny bit of peanut butter adds lasting energy without blowing up the calorie count.

• Tip: if you want even less fat, use powdered peanut butter mixed with water for the dip.

3. Hard‑boiled egg + veggie sticks

Eggs are one of the most nutrient-dense snacks around — high in protein, vitamins, and healthy fats. Paired with crunchy veggies, they feel like a full snack but stay light.

• Typical serving: 1 hard‑boiled egg + carrots or cucumber sticks

• Calories: about 80–100

• Why it’s great: low calorie, highly satisfying; perfect before a workout or mid-afternoon slump.

• Tip: add a pinch of everything seasoning or black pepper for flavor without extra calories.

4. Air‑popped popcorn

Popcorn can be a healthy whole‑grain snack if you skip butter and heavy seasoning. Air‑popped popcorn is light, crunchy, and surprisingly filling.

• Typical serving: about 3 cups air‑popped

• Calories: roughly 90–120 depending on exact cup count and any light seasoning

• Why it’s great: high volume, low calories; great when you crave crunch.

• Tip: season with nutritional yeast, a dash of cinnamon, or light sea salt. According to nutrition info from The Popcorn Board, air‑popped popcorn is very low in calories per cup, around 30 calories, and a whole grain with fiber, which supports satiety.

5. Cottage cheese + pineapple

Cottage cheese is high in protein and pairs nicely with pineapple for a sweet, refreshing snack.

• Typical serving: ½ cup low‑fat cottage cheese + ¼ cup pineapple

• Calories: about 120–140

• Why it’s great: protein keeps you full longer; pineapple adds sweetness and vitamin C.

• Tip: if you want lower sugar, swap pineapple for peach or strawberries.

How to snack smarter under 150 calories

Healthy snacking isn’t just about counting calories — it’s about balance and satisfaction.

• Choose snacks with protein, fiber, or healthy fats.

• Avoid eating from a big bag — portion control matters.

• Keep snacks easy to grab so you don’t reach for junk food.

• Drink a glass of water before snacking; sometimes thirst masquerades as hunger.

• Aim for 100–150 calories for quick, light snacks that actually feel like a treat rather than a mini‑meal.
