These are some of the best cheeses that are full of healthy fats:

- Cheddar Cheese
- Cottage Cheese
- Ricotta Cheese
3. Quick Keto Meaty Snacks

The perfect naturally sweet snack is to enjoy a portion of ketogenic diet approved fruit like strawberries, raspberries or blueberries.
You can top your portion with a generous swirl of whipped cream to add some healthy fats to your sweet treat.
7. Hard-Boiled Eggs
I always keep a bowl of hard boiled eggs in my fridge to snack on through the week either as a snack on it’s own, or combined together with a couple of simple ingredients as devilled eggs or in an easy egg salad.
8. Nuts and Seeds
Reach for a handful of nuts or seeds for a high protein, high fiiber snack.
Some of the best keto snacks are pumpkin seeds, macadamia nuts, almonds, walnuts, coconut chips or almond butter.
You can put together a trail mix or even make peanut butter cups or fudge to snack on when sugar cravings strike.
9. Tea & Coffee
The ultimate lazy keto snacks is to make yourself a warming cup of your choice of tea or coffee to help keep you satisfied between meals.
Depending on your hot drink of choice, there can be little to no carbs or calories in this snack.

Satisfy your sweet tooth with a row of low-carb diet approved chocolate that you’ll find at the grocery store, which is usually 85% plus dark chocolate without added sugar.
