CHEESY PEAR<\/strong><\/p>\nPears and cheese go together like peanut butter and jelly. So next time you need a hearty snack, choose a small pear and a light cheese stick. The cheese will help you meet your calcium goal by providing 16 percent of your daily needs, and the pear provides 4 grams of fibre, getting you that much closer to the recommended 25-35 grams a day.<\/p>\n
PEANUT BUTTER CELERY<\/strong><\/p>\n This classic childhood snack is both convenient and low carb. Two stalks of celery topped with 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter has only 8 grams of carbohydrates (3 of which are fibre). It’s perfectly sized and very portable; you can put them together in the morning, toss them in your bag, and they’re ready whenever you are.<\/p>\n COTTAGE CHEESE AND BERRIES<\/strong><\/p>\n Cottage cheese is a nutritious, low-carb staple. Three quarters of a cup with four thinly sliced strawberries supply 15 percent of your calcium needs and almost half of your vitamin C requirements. You can vary the flavours by swapping out the strawberries for blueberries or raspberries, and also try seasoning with cinnamon or adding vanilla extract for extra sweetness.<\/p>\n HUMMUS<\/strong><\/p>\n Forget the portion police! With A Classic Hummus, it\u2019s OK to clean out 1 big container in one sitting. This two-ounce protein pack is just the right amount to satisfy a savoury craving and keep you full until your next meal, especially when you use it as a dip for peppers or celery.<\/p>\n BOILED EGGS<\/strong><\/p>\n hard-boiled eggs are perfect for anyone looking for an extra dose of protein. Eggs also offer a variety of nutrients, including choline, selenium, riboflavin, vitamin D, phosphorus, vitamin B12, foliate, iron and vitamin A. To save time, boil a bunch of eggs at once and enjoy them throughout the week (keep refrigerated). They\u2019re an easy, portable snack, and by playing around with some spices, you can add a variety of flavours. Try topping with pepper, sea salt, paprika, chilli powder, etc.<\/p>\n GREEK YOGURT<\/strong><\/p>\n Think of Greek yogurt as a creamier, carb-controlled version of regular yogurt. A 6 ounce serving of fat-free, plain Greek yogurt contains only 7 grams of carbohydrates. That’s half as much as regular yogurt and a quarter of the carbohydrates you’d get from sweetened yogurts. Greek yogurt also contains twice as much protein, making it the perfect choice for those counting carbs and watching their waistline.<\/p>\n KALE CHIPS<\/strong><\/p>\n Toss two large handfuls of chopped and washed kale in a bowl with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and bake at 300 degrees for 20 minutes. One cup of fresh chopped kale only contains 35 calories and 7 grams of carbohydrates, so feel free to have a few extra chips if you’re hungry.<\/p>\n AVOCADO OPEN SANDWICH<\/strong><\/p>\n Mash 1\/4 of a peeled avocado and stir in a dash of garlic salt. Spread onto a slice of toasted whole grain bread and top with a couple of tomato slices for a snack that is packed with flavour and fibre. Even with the generous amount of avocado, this snack contains only 150 calories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Going low carb can help many people shed a few pounds if done right.
