One of the best ways to snack between meals is to eat something that will keep energy from flagging. Usually, according to nutritionists, this is something that is balanced, say carbs plus some protein and maybe a little fat for fullness. I sometimes make a non-fat milk shake with frozen banana or add a little peanut buter, which makes an easy to swallow braces snack.

Also, I make smoothies to take to work. My favorite is a blend of a cup of OJ, 1/4 cup liquid egg (for protein), a frozen banana and some other frozen fruit like strawberries.
