Ossie-Sharon 9 years ago | Hi, goloriann. The following are some ideas: •Fresh and dried fruit •Cut raw vegetables •Oven-baked vegetable chips •Nuts and seeds •Trail mix combinations of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit •Sandwiches – good breads with nut butters, hummus and similar spreads, tahini, canned or smoked fish, cheese, homemade “cold cuts” from fresh meats, egg salad, etc. •Whole grain or Paleo crackers plus any of the above •Hard-boiled eggs •Sliced or string cheese •Cottage cheese •Yogurt •Milk (dairy or vegetal), plain or flavored with cocoa powder and a recommended sweetener •Hearty soup in a thermos (2-3 food groups, i.e. meat or legume, vegetable, whole grain) •Hearty smoothie/shake in a thermos (2-3 food groups, i.e. fruit/vegetable, dairy/vegan, seeds) •Edamame or other legume/pulse snacks •Whole grain or Paleo cereal or granola (cold in small sealable bag, cooked in thermos) •Canned beans •Prepared healthy foods in containers – from leftovers or prepared the night or weekend before. •Homemade whole-food muffins or bars •Popped grains, i.e. organic popcorn, sorghum, quinoa |

Ossie-Sharon 9 years ago | Hi, Susan. Herbs, spices, and vinegars are free and actually encouraged for their health value. As for bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons is equal to a carb exchange. |

Carol Smith 9 years ago | Don’t think this reply tells what the free spreads are. Don’t you just click on “free spreads” and a list pops up? |
Support 9 years ago | Hi Cinclare, Thanks for posting. Free spreads can be used freely on bread without them being in your menu. Best 🙂 |
