This is where I struggle the most. I have no problem planning out my meals for the week, it's just the snacks that I get hung up on. Here are some suggestions for snacking, while staying low carb.
*Sugar-Free Jello or Pudding Cups
*Dannon Light and Fit Carb and Sugar Control Yogurt or Yoplait Light with Fiber
----If you live near a Kroger, they have their own brand call Carbmaster. Usually cheaper and tastes great!
*Sugar Free Jam or Jelly (Smuckers has one) along with Crispbreads.
----WASA BRAND Fiber Crispbread , dark green packaging is great.
*Any kind of Natural Peanut Butter. Skippy has a great one or you could easily do the store brand.
----You could do the peanut butter with celery sticks or a small apple.
*Ice Cream--Breyers has a really good CarbSmart Line.
----The ice cream is yummy, although I've only seen it offered in Vanilla or Chocolate. They also have ice cream bars if you come across them. But be sure to double-check the carb content on your store brand ice cream. I've come across some that were way cheaper than Breyers and the carb content was not bad.
*Salad is also a low carb option. Just be sure to check the carb content on any dressing you may use.
*Mozzarella Cheese Sticks (low fat)
*Deli Meat roll ups. You can roll these with the mozzarella cheese sticks. Sometimes I just roll the deli meat and put some mustard on it. Very quick snack!
*Hard boiled egg. You could also mix this with some mayonnaise. Just check the carbs!
Happy Snacking!!!
