Spinach tortellini time! Do you have a go-to snack food?

Several months ago I gave a luke-warm review to Trader Joe's spinach tortellini. But I have warmed up to the stuff (heh) over time. I may have undercooked it the first time I tried it. It makes for a good snack or small meal, and a $2.99 package is good for four or five small meals.
I have to be at Guitar Center in an hour. My egg and sausage breakfast were wearing off. So decided to cook some up before I go. When bathed in olive oil, and smothered in Parmesan cheese, it actually tastes pretty good.
What are some of your inexpensive snack foods?
Photo is of a t-rex sculpture I made on a hike several months ago. Or is it a kangaroo?

Looks like a T-rex. I'm glad the tortellini tastes better to you. I eat a bag of popcorn or some cheese balls for a snack. Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

@TheHorse No, not that kind. They are like cheese puffs but round. Really crispy and good. This is the brand we buy.

Grapes, bananas, apples, canned fruit (with pear juice or unsweetened, not that “heavy syrup” garbage).

I like B&M Boston Brown Bread. It comes in a can and is enough for three or four snack-type meals.

What you made sounds really good. I had sloopy joes for lunch. They turned out really good.
