Light lunch, snack credit

[mommymanda]

How in the world am I not finding info here? Lol I know we all love our Disney sweets, but others have to be like me and wonder

I have a late check in and early check out so that means two days of DDP credits to fill up in the others...so we have a number of 9am brunches and 6pm suppers.

Rather than using CS credits and filling at lunch we would rather use a snack credit as something that qualifies as a light lunch.

So I've searched online and only found

Cheese croissant in MK

Chicken fried rice at Yak and yeti

Our last trip we filled up with the stuffed pretzels, but I've heard they are no longer an option. Is this current or will they be around for the year still?

Anyone else able to share ideas?

We are getting that ham & cheese crossiant in Epcot at Les Halls for a snack credit to help tide us over until dinner.

Which park are you going to be at? The resorts tend to have healthy snack options, so does Starbucks.

there are lots of savory snack options at AK - samosas and hummus and grits with pulled pork. They are in the little kiosks around discovery island.

AK: Flame Tree BBQ has an order of fries with cheese and pulled pork that looks pretty filling
Pizzafari: Disney Food Blog reported recently that garlic knots are being served here as a snack credit

Epcot: The ham & cheese croissant at Les Halles has already been mentioned, but the Lobster Bisque is also a snack credit. For another snack credit you can add a full baguette or you can buy half a baguette out of pocket for $1.85.
There is also a bacon & cheese roll available there for a snack credit
Sunshine Seasons at Epcot also offers some soups as a credit.
If you are here during Food & Wine or Flower & Garden you will find lots of mini-meals avaialble

Magic Kingdom: Liberty Square Market offers baked potatoes and baked sweet potatoes that were snack credits the last time we visited.
Pecos Bill: Chili is offered for a snack credit
Gaston's Tavern: Hummus & Chips
Pinocchio Village Haus: They used to have garlic knots as well as some soups, but I'm not sure if this has changed

Resort food courts offers lots of items that can serve to tide you over between meals. At Art of Animation we have gotten Cheesy Pesto Bread as well as soups and Caesar salad.

Regular, non-filled, pretzels are still available in various locations aroud the parks. Disney popcorn is also a delicious choice when you need a little something that is not sweet.

I can't eat sweets on an empty stomach, so I look for places that have good snack options that are more savory than sweet.

Good suggestions above. There are also smoothies at many places (resort food courts; Fountainview at Epcot; Main St Bakery and Auntie Gravities in MK, etc.) that qualify as a snack credit and can feel like a meal replacement. On the sweet side, but might be a good option once or twice on the trip.

Also, remember DDP credits are based on the number of nights you stay, not days, i.e. 8 day trip equals 7 nights, so in reality you would have an extra day's worth of dining credits, not two days' worth.

Oh I better double check. Is there anywhere I can see my credit numbers this early on (we arrive the end of August). I mixed up the days/nights for sure if that is the case and will have to change an ADR if so.

If you login to your MDE, and pull up your reservation details, it shows your dates staying, and your dining plan, with "X" credits per night. Confusing, I know!
