No BREAD...Low Carb Snacks


Lox With Cream Cheese

Low-carb doesn't have to mean no-carb. Pair up some heart-healthy salmon with calcium-rich cream cheese to go on a few whole wheat crackers. Or, switch out the crackers and opt for cucumber slices instead!



Avocado With Sunflower Seeds

Avocados are a creamy snack that are good on their own, but a sprinkling of sunflower seeds give them an even healthier boost. The combination of avocado and sunflower seeds brings the body a healthy dose of fiber, vitamins E and K, and potassium. You also get a little bit of protein, too!


Tuna Salad on Tomato

When you're watching your carb-counts, bread can be a major culprit. But bread doesn't have to be the only thing to build a sandwich on! The next time you whip yourself up a light tuna salad, serve it on a tomato, cucumbers, or make yourself a lettuce wrap. Tuna is packed with protein and iron, and the veggies will give the snack added vitamins and nutrients.
