One of my favorite snacks lately has been cutting an avocado in half, taking out the stone then filling the pit with cream cheese. After that, top with shredded cheese and a few drops hot sauce and then bake for 20 minutes. It's SOOOOOOOO GOOOOOD!! Twice a day the last 3 days this has been my meal/snack.1

Avocado chunks, mayo, salt and pepper.
Lettuce wraps with imperial cheese/cream cheese, and veggie turkey slices.
Cream cheese/nut butter and celery (also makes me feel like I'm 5)
Any veggie-meat slice fried in butter than layered hot with shredded cheese so it melts (soooo good).0 -
Put philly cheese inside slices of turkey slices then zap it for 10sec in the microwave. Warning gooey goodness.
Or wrap precooked chicken strips in ham
Salami sticks (pepperami in the uk)
Just get good quality cold meats

My favorite is cream cheese wrapped in roasted seaweed! I get the seaweed in a huge pack from Costco, and use about 1/2 Tbsp. of cream cheese or less in each roll. Occasionally I'll feel a bit frisky and throw some smoked salmon or cucumber in there, but then it typically turns into more of a nom-stravaganza and less of a snack.

OMG I love that roasted seaweed! My husband makes fun of me. lol. I like to get the Roasted Herb Turkey breast from Costco + cheese and make little roll-ups with them.0 -
I have a bit of a sweet tooth (I know , I know, it's something I need to get rid of and fast) so I tend to snack on homemade jello fruit snacks. They only have 2 calories in each and net carb count of 0.
When I'm feeling like something savory I use this recipe (http://www.beautyandthefoodie.com/low-carb-croissant-bagels/) but I make them in a muffin tin, they're smaller and go further than in bagel form. They're filling, and awesome heated up with a bit of butter on top, and work out to be 1 net carb or less per "biscuit" depending on the size of your muffin tin.1 -
I've been eating walnuts, hazelnuts, and sunflower seeds that I saute in sesame oil and salt.0

I'll have to give those chocolate drops a try I'm a chocoholic...
here's the recipe for the homemade fruit snacks... they're REALLY easy!
Ingredients:
2 packets of unflavoured gelatin
1 package of sugar free jello (any flavour)
1/3 cup of water
Just pour the gelatin and jello over the water in a small sauce pan, and stir over medium heat for a couple minutes until the gelatin and jello dissolve. Pour into an ice cube tray or jello mold and leave on the counter for about an hour. No need to refrigerate, I just keep mine on my desk in a baggie to snack on while I work This makes about 10 fruit snacks, but it will vary depending on the size of your ice cube tray/jello mold.

If you haven't already, I recommended purchasing Dana Carpenter's "Fat Fast Cookbook." It is fully of fantastic recipes. Two of my favorites are bacon-wrapped jalopenos stuffed with cream cheese and pepperoni chips (nuked in the microwave for 35 seconds) dipped in whipped cream cheese.
I love poppers but hate all the work and mess. I found a jalapeno popper dip recipe on All Recipes...Awesome.
http://allrecipes.com/recipe/jalapeno-popper-spread/
There werent nearly enough peppers for us so we added more. Added bacon, Added sharp cheddar shredded, Omitted Parm cheese.0 -
i'm still digging microwaved pepperoni and cream cheese.1

Wasabi almonds at Target!
I've heard rumors that Blue Diamond almonds have a salt and vinegar kind, but I've yet to find those yet.
They have them and they are AMAZING!! I love salt and vinegar chips and this was an awesome find for me! They are hard to find though. I found mine at Publix (US, GA) but I don't know if you have one around you.
This might help but for some reason it doesn't list the publix where I get mine so I am not sure how accurate it is: http://www.bluediamond.com/applications/locator/index.cfm?navid=140 -

Babybel cheese is good, I bought some the other day but haven't eaten any yet.0

I snack on nuts or cheese and yes pork rinds but if my sweet tooth is in affect then I will eat a quest bar. I have checked my ketones a few hours after eating one and still have a moderate amount of ketones in my urine so I feel they are ok for me to have in my eating plan.0

Cheese crisps. Put the oven at 400 degrees. Slice some cheese and put it on parchment paper. Bake it for 12-14 minutes. You'll know it is done because it'll look kind of lacy and be crisp. If it isn't crisp and you get impatient, pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds after baking. You're going to love that crunch!0

Growing up, my mom made me a lot of tuna or chicken salad sushi rolls with avocado. I found a recipe where you basically just filled the hole of an avocado with egg salad, but it was too much mush for me. Instead, I make chicken or tuna salad with dill, mayo, and chopped celery, cut the avocado in half, and spoon the salad into it, eating it all together. More of a meal, but it's really tasty!
Another favorite avocado recipe is a cucumber avocado salad I found. Chop a cucumber into small pieces along with an avocado and mix them together in a bowl, with scallions if you like. Mix two tablespoons of mayo with the juice of half a lime or lemon, add dill or parsley or whatever herbs you like along with a pinch of salt and hot sauce or chili powder, stir that all together and spoon over the cucumber and avocado. It's really fast and it tastes like a tzatziki salad! http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2015/04/obsessively-good-avocado-cucumber-salad/ This is where I got it from, and there's other dressings listed that you can put over it instead.0 -
Yesterday I discovered Moon Cheese at my local Save-on-Foods (Canada). It comes in small chip size bags - perfect for lunches on the go. http://www.mooncheesesnacks.com0

Thinly sliced cucumber/zucchini topped with pepperoni, cheese and a dab of mayo holy crapness yumm 0

I make Keto nachos, which are just sour cream, shredded cheese, homemade guac, and tons of ground beef on a bed of pork rinds. besides being a little calorie-heavy, it's perfect as a meal or a (big) snack.0

For breakfast at work I take a Pate Pod (50g of pate) and a Philadelphia cream cheese mini tub (40g). Very high fat and portable.0

My fave new dessert is ricotta cheese, frozen strawberries blended for 2 min in a foodchopper ( little Oskar type)
Lowfat Ricotta has 100 calories p 1/2 cup…and add a hand full of strawberries, some stevia/sweetener..I sometimes add HWC..just a short blend, and ZOWIE …..ICE CREAM…. smaller berries dont work as well, but taste great, I also had some Glycerin used for making reg ice-cream…makes it 'stickier'
seriously, knowing there is an INSTANT desert that is still VLC keeps me from being tempted
you can eat on the spot, and freeze the rest0 -
I mix 16 oz of whipping cream with one box of instant sugar free pudding ( I like white chocolate) until it gets stuff peaks. Its going to be very very creamy. Then I mix it with whatever I have on hand. My Favorite so far was with chopped almonds and fresh peach. I split the entire mix into 8 parts and eat them as a dessert or whenever the sugar cravings hit. They have around 5 net carbs but are high in fat. You can use the cheesecake flavor pudding and it tastes and has similar texture to cheesecake.0
