Stuffed Avocado
Stuffed avocados are a versatile and nutritious snack, offering a creamy texture and a rich source of healthy fats. By filling half an avocado with protein-rich stuffing like canned salmon, tuna, chopped shrimp, or scrambled eggs and cheese, you transform a simple avocado into a filling and nutritious snack. This combination tastes great and contributes to your intake of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and essential vitamins. The carbs in avocados are mostly fiber, making them an ideal choice for low-carb diets.
Cinnamon Toasted Pumpkin Seeds
Cinnamon-toasted pumpkin seeds are a crunchy, flavorful snack that’s not only easy to make but also packed with nutritional benefits. By tossing pumpkin seeds with cinnamon and olive oil before baking them to golden perfection, you create a snack rich in zinc, magnesium, and healthy fats. This savory and slightly sweet snack is an excellent way to satisfy your craving for something crunchy without veering off your low-carb path. The addition of cinnamon not only enhances the flavor profile but also adds anti-inflammatory properties and may help regulate blood sugar levels.
