When you’re out and about or in between meals and get hungry, impulsive good snacks can be difficult to come by. For me, that’s when non-keto, unhealthy choices can start calling my name. In order to avoid making poor choices, I always keep some good keto snacks close by to ward off hunger until it’s time for a proper keto meal.

And that’s just to name a few. For me, what makes a good snack is that must be easy and quick to grab or prepare, and it has to require very little to no prep since I do plenty of cooking for meals and of course follow the keto guidelines of no sugar, low or no-carb with plenty of good fat.

Can You Eat Popcorn On A Keto Diet?
Is popcorn keto? In short, no. Popcorn is generally high in carbohydrates. Some varieties of popcorn are lower in carbs, but most will be nearly impossible to fit into your daily macros. If you really have a craving for popcorn, you might try making only a very small portion of it, and seeing if that doesn’t satisfy you. A little trick that helps me sometimes, is to add low carb nuts to the popcorn. Not only does that increase the size of my keto snack, but the fat in the nuts also makes me feel full faster.

What are Keto Fat Bombs?
Last but not least with just a little prep work you can make fat bombs.

You can make many of the fat bombs in my Keto Fat Bombs, Sweets and Treats book in bulk and keep them in the fridge or freezer until you’re ready to eat them.
