Easy Keto Snacks For On The Go

Easy Keto Snacks For On The Go – Low Carb Snack Foods & Ideas to pop into a snack box or lunch box when you’re out and about, for work or late at night.

When you’re stuck out and about and need some low carb and easy keto snacks, here are some tasty, simple keto friendly snack ideas to seek out at your local supermarket to help you stay on plan.

Easy Keto Snacks #1 Nuts

Nuts as a whole are full of good fats and high in protein. Plus, they are easily available in your local supermarket or health food store.

Pistachio nuts for example, are full of thiamin which gives us energy, vitamin E that helps decrease inflammation in the body and a 2017 study suggests that having pistachio nuts in your diet regularly may even help with insulin resistance.

My personal favourite are macadamia nuts which just happen to contain virtually perfect keto macros. They are 75% healthy fat content with most of them coming from monounsaturated fats too.

Macadamia nuts only contain 5g of carbs per 100g. Making Macadamia nuts a filling snack that’s both high in fat and low in carbs.

Be careful though and don’t be tempted to eat the whole bag – exercise portion control to avoid eating all of your daily carbs in one sitting!

Cheese

Whether it’s cheddar, a wheel of brie or bocconcini – cheese is a great grab and go low carb, keto friendly snack. Just make sure you get the full-fat varieties.

Cheese is full of calcium so it’s great for your bones and high in protein as well as high in healthy fats.

Plus unlike milk, its low in carbs to boot.

My Husband’s favourite is bocconcini and he always has a tub in his fridge at work for snacking on through the day. And if he runs out, it’s as easy as running to the nearest supermarket to top up his stock.

Berries

Strawberries, blueberries or raspberries are all relatively low in carbs, despite their sweet taste, making berries a refreshing snack.

High in potassium which helps the body regulate blood pressure and water loss it works in conjunction with calcium and magnesium to maintain bone health.

As with other low carb favourites, stick to a small handful and be sure to exercise portion control or your carbs can creep out of control.

Dip

Find the lowest carb dip option available and then either enjoy by the spoonful or with some chopped celery or cucumber.

Meat

Salami (which is high in healthy saturated fat) or ready sliced meat is one of my all time favourite go to snacks. I prefer a salami that I found (pictured above) which has the lowest carbs of any ready prepared meat I’ve found. I will often take a few slices out and about with me.

In saying that we also make sure not to have too much as sulphites, which are often found in salami, may cause some adverse effects.

Be sure to read ALL nutritional labels very carefully. While shopping recently I found a tiny 30g bag of beef jerky with a whopping 9g of carbs! Sugar was the second ingredient, which is just not necessary – so, be sure to read carefully and pick the lowest carb options you can find.
