I eat these with bacon, eggs, turkey, mayo, avocado, lettuce and tomato.

I eat these with bacon, eggs, turkey, mayo, avocado, lettuce and tomato (but not all at the same time, although that would be good too).

In Ditch The Diet I provide one simple snack idea everyday. So how in the world was I in my kitchen the other day talking to myself, saying “I’m hungry. But not that hungry. I want a snack. I can’t think of anything.” And then I realized I had eight weeks worth of snack ideas in DTD. I literally opened my computer and referenced my own program for snack ideas. Duh! I had prosciutto, and I had avocado. What a genius combinations. Salty from the prosciutto and creamy from the avocado. Protein and healthy fats to keep you satiated. Simply wrap some good quality prosciutto around slices of avocado. Is this not the simplest snack idea ever??
