Low-carb diets usually avoid dealing with the topic of snacks but focus more on the three main meals.
But not all of us can spend time eating three full meals a day. Instead, our lives require us to travel frequently. In this situation, and with little or or variety of snacks available, it might be difficult to keep up with a low-carb diet.
Here are 4 unique low-carb snacks that you can have on the go:
1: Chickpea Flatbread
You have to prepare this snack in advance. Four ingredients are necessary such as chickpea flour, arrowroot powder, oil and water. All you need to do is pan-fry it and add whatever seasoning you prefer. It works as an excellent yeast-free, gluten-free alternative to both bread and crackers.
2: Protings
In particular, these are chips that focus on offering protein. In other words, 15 grams to be precise. Not only are these pea-protein chips crunchy and light, you can also enjoy them with a dip. The chili-lime flavor is the best of the lot.
3: Turnip fries
Being part of the same family as Brussels sprouts and broccoli, they’re low in both carbs and calories. Some of the benefits associated with this snack are lowering the risk of cancer, reducing blood pressure, digestion and helping in weight loss. Slice them up and toss them up with oil. Add pepper, paprika, salt and roast them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
4: Brick Bars
It’s a combination of a granola bar and jerky. It works just as well as a filling breakfast apart from being a pre or post workout bar. There are several varieties such as pumpkin seed, sweet potato, cranberry and turkey Brick bars.
