8 Great Keto Diet Snacks To Try

Also known as keto, the ketogenic diet encourages food that is low in carbohydrates and high in fat. The science behind the diet is to reduce the intake of carbs and replace them with fat. This will put the body into a metabolic state known as ketosis. This state leads the body to become more efficient at burning fat stores for energy. If you’re a fitness enthusiast, you may well be monitoring your fat loss with a body fat analyzer. Today we are going to discuss 8 keto diet snacks to try.

One of the biggest challenges of staying on the keto diet is finding tasty Keto Diet snacks. Here are eight great keto-compliant snack ideas to consider making a part of your regular rotation:

1) Veggie Sticks Paired With Guacamole

This classic snack never goes out of style. Nearly any type of raw vegetable tastes great coupled with guacamole. Ideas to consider include red bell pepper sticks, carrots, jicama, and broccoli. You can easily make your guacamole by simply mashing an avocado and mixing it with diced red onion, jalapeño, and lime juice. Avocado is a great choice for those on the keto diet because it is high in healthy fats and can also fill you up.

2) Mixed Nuts

This keto staple delivers a host of health benefits while also keeping you satiated. Nuts are also extremely portable, making them an easy snack to eat on the go. They are packed with protein and heart-healthy fats, making them an ideal choice for when you want to stay full longer. You can eat nuts plain or mix them with a variety of additions such as sunflower seeds and coconut to make a keto-friendly trail mix. If you’re looking to up your protein intake, even more, chop up a Genoa Salame into bite-size pieces and add them to the mix.

Nuts are a no-prep tasty treat that provides essential vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and vitamin E.
