Snack options

I suppose all parts of cooked chicken is good but do not buy dippers, nuggets etc. since these contain flour. Slice of real meat wrapped round a stick of celery or either just on their own. I mostly use a slice of ham for this.

I think the main problem might be that whatever you suggest he won't fancy it.

 

Hi LIz,
I found a recipe for low carb crackers and put it on my blog. Its really easy to make and tastes great. Have a look

http://diabeticgoodcooking.blogspot.co. ... ckers.html

and here is the recipe for butternut squach crisps http://www.runningtothekitchen.com/2012 ... ash-chips/. Havent tried this yet but it looks quite yummy

 

This sounds great. Will be having a go today! I love almonds but never knew they could be used like this. Thanks for recipe

I think if you put a bit of splenda they would turn into nice biscuits (few chocolate chips wouldnt add much carbs). Muffins with almond flour are great too

 

I found some crackers in Aldi which are only 3g, and nice with a bit of cheese or something. I'll often grab a few nuts as a snack.

My kids enjoy the mini peperami sticks and cheese strings. Both carb free so might work for you.

Sugar free jelly, not the healthies option but quite nice sometimes. I've made these layered jelly squares for a couple fo aprties and they have always been a hit.

Hi LizG I usually give anything that is less than 15 carbs such as
sugar free jelly
raisins
cheese
rich tea biscuit
half an apple
2 crackers with cheese
handful of cereal and small amount of milk

My 12 year old son absolutely loves the Fridge Raiders, chicken bites with only 3.6g of carbs in a packet. He also loves low fat cheese spread on ritz crackers, he makes two cracker sandwiches with cheese spread inbetween less than 10g carbs.

I used to like a bit of cheese when i was little.
Id steer clear of processed food, as its unclear what the ingridients are and contains a lot of salt. I saw an article months ago suggesting processed ham is a carcinogen. I wouldnt be surprised if processed rubbish gave me type 1 in the 1st place

 

you could try peanuts if he isnt allergic or cheese. neither will affect his sugar levels

 

I enjoy boiled egg mashed up in a cup with a knob of butter. I remember I loved this as a child also! Very filling xx
