Food and snacks

Can anyone recommend some filling snacks for a 10 year old? I’m not sure if she’s going through a growth spurt but it’s getting to the point where I get shopping and she will just constantly ask for food saying she’s starving. After school (unless she’s playing out) she just constantly eats and wants everything. Obviously I don’t let her have too much like crisps, biscuits etc but i just don’t know how to keep up with it all. She’s not over weight and has a lot of energy. Nothing seems to full her up.

Mine used to have a decent snack/light meal after school like cheese on toast.

I think most 10 year olds need a surprising amount of calories per day.
