Snacks—Keto

Hi guys! For those of you on the Keto llifestyle.. what do you snack on? I’m finding this difficult. Nuts are easy to overeat.

  • What about coconut bacon? I'm not keto myself, but coconut bacon is probably the best thing I've ever eaten.

  • Once you are fat adapted you really shouldn't be hungry and need snacks. That said, I enjoy snack sized cheeses, bacon, and the occasional ounce of macadamia nuts

    True, it's not a whole food, but it may not be as bad for us as the name implies: https://nutritionfacts.org/2015/04/14/does-liquid-smoke-cause-cancer/

  • this is my simple go to treat/snack. chocolate/coffee "mouse". just take some double/heavy cream [i usually wait till my cream is half empty, then use the rest for this], throw in a teaspoon of instant coffee and a heaped teaspoon of your favourite cocoa powder and add some sweetener if you want and then whisk it up either by hand or a stick blender until it gets firm.

    Stick in the fridge and then have a teaspoon of it whenever you want.

  • I like to snack on pork rinds. They have the salty that I love and the crunch. I weigh out my ounce and enjoy each bite !

  • Right now I have a mix of peanut butter, crushed walnuts, and coconut oil that Ive mixed together and kept in the fridge. When I feel the urge to snack, I just cut off about an ounce or so. Almost like a fat bomb. Very filling, I think. Usually curbs the urge to snack for me.

  • coconut bacon??? that's a real thing? where's the recipe, MUST have!!!!

  • This is the one I make... You can just leave out the maple syrup to keep the CHO low (or use maple flavoring/extract): https://minimalistbaker.com/easy-coconut-bacon/
