Zero Carb Snacks

July 27, 2021 by Easy Keto Living

Zero Carb Snacks – Ideas for the best low carb keto friendly no carb snack foods list – with a video showing you carb free no prep and foods to buy.

Zero Carb Snacks

These zero carb snacks are the perfect keto foods to keep you nourished between meals, without blowing out your macros for the day.

I find that when I’m starting out with keto (or when I’m getting back into it after a break), I am hungry ALL THE TIME, until I become adapted to the low carb way of eating.

In those times, these foods are my lifeline. After a while though, I find that the high fat keto meals keep me full without the need for snacking, but these options still come in handy from time to time when I just need that little something extra to keep me going through the day and to help me achieve my low carb diet weight loss goals.

Cheese

Cheese is one of my favorite zero carb snacks that’s high in healthy fats – you can choose from cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, feta, brie, parmesan cheese, cream cheese, cottage cheese or really any cheese you like. Simply enjoy by the square or in a snack platter with a couple of other options from this list.

Meat & Chicken – Zero Carb Snacks

Meat chicken and salami - zero carb snacks

There are so many meat snacks to choose from that make a delicious snack and have virtually no carbs.

You can go for leftovers from a previous meal and have a piece of chicken or slice of beef, lamb or ham. Or, opt for deli meat or lunch meat that just need the package to be opened – no prep at all to enjoy a protein rich zero carb snack.

Another perfect snack option is salami sticks, meat sticks or salami, which can have little to no grams of carbohydrates but often have sugars or carbs added, so read the nutrition label carefully.

Zero Carb Snacks - Keto foods to buy - Salami

Pork Rinds, Biltong & Beef Jerky

Dried, salty, meaty protein rich snack options that you can find at stores that are keto diet friendly and can be enjoyed by the handful. Double check the nutrition panel and ingredients for hidden carbs and added sugar.

Fish & Seafood

You can enjoy a can of tuna, salmon or sardines by the fork full or mix a couple of spoons of sour cream or mayo through for a speedy snack that’s naturally low in grams of carbs and high in grams of protein.

Hard Boiled Egg – Zero Carb Snacks

I like to keep a bowl full of hard boiled eggs to make a super quick grab and go carb free snack that’s a good source of protein.

I’ve also found already hard boiled and peeled hard boiled eggs at supermarkets lately which make an easy, instant store bought snack food that’s low in grams of net carbs.

Cucumber, Celery & Greens

Cucumber, celery and greens such as spinach or lettuce can be enjoyed in a salad, lettuce wrap or mixed with other ketogenic diet friendly foods such as tuna, hard boiled egg or olive oil as a great way to enjoy a tasty snack.

Olives & Pickles

Olives and Dill Pickles are carb free and can be turned into an antipasti platter or enjoyed by the spoon or hand full as a great snack.

Low Carb Nuts and Seeds

Quick grab and go low carb snack ideas include all kinds of nuts and seeds to satisfy your crunchy cravings. Choose from a healthy snack of cashew nuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds as well as nut butters such as peanut butter.

Just be sure to exercise portion control because total carbs can quickly add up, despite nuts and seeds being keto-friendly foods.

Jello or Jelly – Zero Carb Snacks

Sugar free jelly or jello make easy sweet snacks to satisfy your sweet tooth with a variety of flavors. Just read ingredients carefully and be sure you’re happy to include artificial sweeteners in your low-carb lifestyle, as they can cause an upset stomach in some people.

Tea & Coffee

A simple cup of tea or coffee can satisfy between meal hunger and keep you going until the next main meal with zero net carbs.

Keto Candied Walnuts Recipe

October 20, 2020 by Easy Keto Living

Keto Candied Walnuts Recipe – How to make easy low carb & sugar free roasted walnuts with cinnamon – with the video.

Keto Candied Walnuts

These Keto Candied Walnuts make delicious sweet low-carb snacks, Festive treat or tasty topping for a salad.

Walnuts are one of the best keto nuts to include in your diet that are naturally low in g net carbs and high in g fiber, g protein and healthy fats.

The best part is that you can enjoy the easy keto snacks in a number of different ways, from snacking on them by the handful to using them as a topping for keto ice cream, smoothies or a healthy yogurt bowl.

The Simple Ingredients For The Easy Recipe

To make the perfect snack, you’ll need the following handful of ingredients that are all naturally low in grams of net carbs:

Walnuts – you can use sliced, chopped or halved walnuts. (Or really any healthy nuts you like in this ketogenic diet friendly recipe.)

Egg White – only an egg white is needed and gently whisked until foamy to help all of the ingredients stick to the walnuts, without the need for honey, maple syrup or other sugar loaded ingredient usually used in candied nuts.

I like to save the egg yolk in a separate bowl and use it in an omelette or scrambled eggs, so nothing is wasted.

Stevia – use stevia or your low carb keto sweetener of choice, such as monk fruit sweetener, that you usually include in keto desserts, and as little or as much as you’d like depending on how sweet you’d like your recipe to be to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Vanilla Extract & Pinch of Salt – each a great addition to balance the flavors in the sweet treat.

Cinnamon – use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon, depending on how much of a rich cinnamon flavor you want with your delicious snack.

How to make low carb sugar free roasted walnuts

Keto Candied Walnuts Recipe

1 Egg – white only
1-2 Tablespoons Stevia or Sugar Substitute
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Salt
0.5 to 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
7 Ounces/200g Walnuts

Preheat the oven to 250F/120C, line a baking sheet with baking parchment paper and grease it well.
Separate the egg, moving the white to a large mixing bowl and saving the yolk to use in scrambled eggs, an omelette or another low carb diet friendly recipe.
Use a wire whisk to briefly whisk the egg white until frothy.
Add the stevia and whisk in to incorporate.
Add the vanilla, a pinch of salt and the cinnamon and whisk until fully combined.
Add the walnuts and stir through to fully coat the nuts in the sweet batter.
Move the nuts to the prepared baking tray, flattening them down so they are spaced out in a single layer.
Place into the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes baking time.
Remove from the oven, flip the nuts over and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes.
Remove the nuts from the oven, flip them and return to the oven for a final 15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked to your liking.
Once perfectly roasted, remove from the oven, allow to cool completely to room temperature to further crisp up and then enjoy, storing leftovers in an airtight container to enjoy within a couple of days.

10 Cheap Keto Snacks

September 2, 2019 by Easy Keto Living

10 Cheap Keto Snacks – Budget friendly low carb ketogenic diet list of snack food ideas – List of the cheapest keto snack foods.

10 Cheap Keto Snacks

When it comes to cheap keto snacks it doesn’t have to be complicated. There are plenty of easy snack ideas that need little to no effort to create a tasty dish to see you through until your next meal.

Keto Friendly Budget Snack Ideas

Here are 10 easy snack ideas to enjoy.

1. Eggs

Eggs are brilliantly versatile and make an excellent snack. You can enjoy them hard boiled, devilled, fried, scrambled on in an omelette.

2 Ingredient devilled eggs are really easy to make. Simply scoop the yolk out of a hard boiled egg and mash, together with sour cream, yogurt or mayo.

Then, fill the egg white with the creamy egg yolk and enjoy. You could also top with devilled egg with salt and pepper if you like.

2. Tuna

You can simply peel back a lid from a tin of tuna and enjoy! Or, move the tuna to a bowl and mix through sour cream, yogurt, mayo, cream cheese or even pesto for a keto friendly tuna mayo.

You could also mix through hard boiled eggs for a tuna and hard boil egg salad or dip that’s high in protein.

Another option is to fill lettuce cups with tuna for tuna salad snack bites.

3. Cheese

There are so many ways to enjoy cheese as a cheap low carb snack. You can enjoy:

Grated Cheese
Brie
Feta
Parmesan
Bocconcini
Cream Cheese
Goats Cheese

You can even make cheese crackers by placing a tablespoon of grated cheese in a hot frying pan until it melts and then turns crisp and becomes a cracker.

4. Seeds

Sunflower or pumpkin seeds are usually way cheaper than nuts to enjoy as a snack.

Bonus snack – you could also enjoy sunflower seed butter or peanut butter by the spoon full as an cheap keto snack.

5. Chocolate

ALDI is brilliant for stocking up on keto friendly chocolate on a budget. (Here’s my full ALDI Keto Shopping List.)

You could just enjoy a piece of chocolate or turn a row into a hot chocolate with a cup of warmed almond milk, which you freely enjoy on keto.

6. Frozen Berries

Frozen is usually cheaper than fresh and you can enjoy a small handful on keto.

You can whip up a quick smoothie with whatever milk you usually enjoy or top a portion with budget friendly whipping cream.

7. Green Salad

You can put together a quick green salad with a selection of low carb vegetables like spinach, avocado, celery and then drizzle over extra virgin olive oil and salt.

You can top your salad with other cheap keto snacks like berries and feta too.

8. Avocado

Skip a salad and just indulge in an entire avocado. They can be budget friendly or ridiculously expensive, depending on the time of year and where you live.

They are regularly 80 to 99 cents near me and make an easy low carb, high fat and fiber snack.

9. Low Carb Yoghurt

Plain, Natural or Greek yoghurt are the lowest carb options and make an easy, go to snack.

You can sweeten yoghurt with stevia or your sweetener of choice, mix through frozen berries, cream or even cocoa powder for a chocolate indulgence.

10. Leftovers

Seriously just embrace leftovers! Whatever you have lurking in your fridge from the previous meal (or meals) turn into snacks to see you through until the next meal!

Whether that’s leftover roast chicken, steak, stir fry or curry. Serve out a small portion as a snack and enjoy!

Bonus Cheap Keto Snack Idea – Soup

Soup (like my easy cauliflower soup) makes a hearty, cheap keto snack which can easily turn into a meal.

You could boil up a whole pot of soup over the weekend and then just heat up a mug full when you’re after quick cup of homemade soup.

Keto Halloumi Fries

February 23, 2018 by Easy Keto Living

Keto Halloumi Fries – How to make easy and crispy Halloumi Fries which are low carb and Ketogenic Diet friendly.

Keto Halloumi Fries

Halloumi is one of those ingredients that you either absolutely adore or you’d rather do without. I’m in the absolutely can’t live without Halloumi camp and I love frying the cheese up and enjoying it in different recipes.

I recently shared a Halloumi Salad recipe on the blog (get it here) and today I’m sharing my latest Halloumi Cheese obsession with you – Crispy Keto Halloumi Fries.

All you need is Halloumi and you simply melt plenty of butter in a frying pan. (This one’s my favourite!)

Then, chop your halloumi cheese into “fries” and fry until golden and crispy on all sides.

Once cooked, I like to squeeze over some fresh lemon juice, which perfectly balances the salty Halloumi Cheese. These are the BEST Keto friendly fry alternative as they only have one ingredient and crisp up easily without the need for a crumb coating.

Keto Halloumi Fries Recipe

Halloumi Cheese
Butter, for frying
A wedge of Lemon

Heat butter in a frying pan.
While the butter is melting, chop the Halloumi cheese into chips.
When the frying pan is hot and the butter has melted, place the Halloumi Chips into the frying pan.
Add more butter if needed and cook until the underside is golden.
Then, flip over and cook until all sides are golden and crispy.
Remove to a plate and squeeze over fresh lemon juice, to taste.

7 Low Carb Crunchy Snacks

Sometimes when you’re craving a keto snack you want something that will be wonderously crunchy and give the same savory experience as carby pretzels, crisps or chips, yet still be low carb.

Well, you’re in luck because today I have 7 low carb crunchy snack ideas for you.

1. Vegetable Sticks

Celery and Peppers make a wonderful, crunchy low carb snack. You can enjoy them on their own or with a dipping sauce or even some egg mayo.

2. Kale Chips

This trendy is popular for a reason – it’s tasty, fibre rich, nutrient dense and low in carbs. You can buy these while on the go or make them yourself.

3. Crispy Salami

I LOVE making crispy salami by filling a parchment lined baking sheet with finely chopped salami and then cooking them in the oven until crispy. (15 to 20 minutes in a 180C/350F oven should do it!)

4. Pork Rinds

Pork rinds are a crunchy chip alternative that’s sooooooo crunchily satisftying yet so very low in carbs.

5. Crispy Cheese

These are an AMAZING low carb crunchy snack. You simply heat a frying pan and when hot drop a tablespoon or so of grated cheese per chip.

Then it’s just a matter of being patient and allowing the cheese to melt and then crisp up.

I love using my red spot frying pan, because the spot changes colour to let me know the pan is perfectly hot enough and ready to have cheese dropped into it.

You can use any cheese or combination you like and add herbs and spices to taste.

6. Seaweed Snacks

Seaweed snacks are expectantly crunchy and another chip alternative that satisfies your savory craving without the carbs.

7. Nuts & Seeds

A handful of nuts or seeds is an easy to find and enjoy low carb crunchy snack.

My personal preference is Macadamia Nuts and it is a struggle to exercise portion control, but it’s a must to keep your carbs in check!
