Carrie~ thanks so much for the tips....I'll keep them in mind when I grocery shop next.

You mentioned Almonds......there's a snack idea in the BL Cookbook......in case you're interested here it is:

I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray
1 ounce whole raw Almonds (about 20)
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1 packet of sugar substitute (such as Splenda)

Preheat oven to 350
Place Almonds in single layer on nonstick baking sheet. Bake 7-10 minutes.

Transfer nuts to a small bowl. Spritz 5 times with the spray butter. Stir. Spritz another 5 times with the spray. Add cinnamon and Sugar substitute. Stir. Spritz 5 times with the spray butter. Stir until as evenly coated as possible. Let stand for about 5 minutes to cool then serve immediately.

Sounds like a lot of "spritzing" but it still sounds good!
