Popcorn
Popcorn
This munch-worthy snack is packed with filling fiber, which can help keep your blood sugars stable. Just skip the movie theater variety which, thanks to the thick coating of butter and salt, comes loaded with unhealthy saturated fat and unneeded sodium. Instead, pop some kernels at home in an air popper and get creative with toppings - try oregano for a pizza-inspired snack or cinnamon for a sweet treat.
