Low Carb & Keto Snack Ideas!

Hey there Reader---

It's 3:30 in the afternoon on a Friday as I write this and I'm hungry.

This lull in between lunch and dinner can be hard. If you are hungry and someone tries to hand you a sugary donut it's a lot harder to say no than if you've just eaten a nice big healthy lunch.
​

That's why I make sure to always have some snack options. Crackers, cookie bars, and fat bombs are a great way to tide yourself over until dinner. And for a special treat make yourself a mug cake instead!

These Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars remind me of the store-bought cookie bars I used to find in my school lunches. Except these are much healthier AND tastier. They are packed with protein and you will never know.

These easy baked Keto Cheez-Its Crackers are a great alternative to boxed crackers to enjoy while eating low carb, keto, Trim Healthy Mama, and/or gluten-free. With just a handful of ingredients, you can have homemade crackers in about 30 minutes. My kids love these and I love that they are made with wholesome ingredients.

These amazing Chocolate Fudge Fat Bombs are made with just a few simple ingredients but will satisfy all those chocolate cravings.

Hey there Reader--- After 22.5 years of marriage and 6 kids, we don't go out for Valentine's Day anymore. We try to get a date night at least once or twice a month, but gave up going out on February 14th years ago. We prefer to stay home, relax, and maybe eat a special dinner and dessert.
