Low carb snack ideas

ddgez

I am beginning to lower my carbs with the hopes of reducing my appetite and hopefully lose some weight! Just wanted to know if anyone has a few good ideas for snacks aside from nuts and cheese? I think I would stick longer with something if I had afew tasty snacks to look forward to!

If you are low carb or even fairly reduced carb you need to eat loads of nuts and seeds for fibre and minerals, being tasty should not your prime goal getting a balanced diet should be. Seeds tend to be more mineral rich than tree nuts. This works the same with any restrictive diet, you have to focus on what you add in as much as what you take out. You could eat meat, fish or eggs for snacks but you'd then need to be troughing seeds and nuts at meal times.

Cocoa powder is also a good source of fibre and minerals: low fat soft cheese mixed with cocoa and a nut/ seed butter is pretty good served with low sugar fruits like raspberries and black currants.
