Evening hunger

Can anyone help suggest some snacks to stop me feeling hungry after 9pm when I am likely to be temped? Tonight I had salmon, stir fry and cauliflower rice at 6.30pm but starting to feel hungry now. I then can’t sleep and end up starving if I try and ignore it.

Ive only started calorie counting since 1 Jan but ive been pushing dinner back to 7.30 then taking an apple to bed at about 9.30. I try and get to sleep fpr 10 so Im asleep before hunger hits.

Could you keep a bag of carrot batons in the fridge then just grab a handful through the evening?

Carrots/Celery sticks with hummus
A mini bag of popcorn (The low salt ones)
Apple’s

Google is also good for homemade recipes like homemade oat cookies that are healthy & filling.
