Low Carb Fruit

[smull]

I'm sure this has been covered before but I'm looking for fruits to accompany my beloved double cream

Yesterday I had raspberries with were about 6g carbs for 50g. What else can I have with a similar 'bang for my buck'?!

Cheers,
Andy

I was in Tesco recently searching through their frozen fruits section for anything low carb - there were blackberries, a fruit mixture and coconut - I also found frozen avocados to add to my trolley

Thanks, not a fan of avacado but blackberries is one to add to the list, thanks!

Not a fan of avocados either in fact I hate the things! I find the frozen berries are far better value for money and taste good as well.

A few strawberries would probably be ok - you can test the effect with your meter.

My lovely wife makes me individual pots of sugar-free jelly with fruit and I often have one after dinner with double cream. She adds various combinations - rasps, strawberries, blueberries, grapes. Blueberries are higher carb (9.1/100gm) as are green grapes (15/100gm) but a half dozen or less of either don't really add to a lot of carbs, and I know from my meter that any impact on my BG is minimal.

Any sort of berries are normally OK with double cream or full fat yogurt, but portion control is needed!

I find strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries are fine. They work best for me in the middle of the day, and if added to my evening meal do cause a rise in BG, but not severe. As always your meter will tell you!
