What is your favorite Atkins snack?

[Momtofour]

In an attempt to get this board moving again, what is your favorite Atkins snack?

Mine would be a pickle with cream cheese wrapped in a slice of ham.

It's gotta be nuts, Planters to be more exact... I am not very creative in my snacks, am I? As for a snack to prepare, I like nacho cheese crisps.

Pepperoni crisped in the microwave dipped in a little sour cream.

When I want something sweet, I love a big cup of decaf with cream and splenda.

I make up a little chicken salad with chicken leftovers and spread it on celery. It's my new favorite. Of course my old favorite was the quiche muffins I used to make all the time. I started making them in the mini-muffin pan so I could have a two bite snack.

I make several chicken breasts, cube them and put into plastic baggies. I'll cube some cheese and add to the plastic bag. When I'm on the run I grab a baggie and go.

Nuts about nuts! Have to be careful though, otherwise they can get hold of me, so I measure them out into 1 oz lots.

Re: What is your favorite Atkins snack?

Nuts for me also, although I have been know to overdose on them. Other than that, I am partial to the ham and cream cheese roll ups.

nope. It isn't okay toi pigout on anything doing Atkins!! We eat only enough food to satisfy our hunger at the time we are eating and stop period. We do not trade one bad habit for another. Give up your popcorn junkie stuffing ways and never worry about needing to shed weight again.


Dr Atkins told the docs conducting the famous DUKE study 1 cup was the daily limit.

Re: What is your favorite Atkins snack?

thank you! i appreciate the advice.i never saw anything with a limit as to how many u were allowed.i'm working real hard on the comfort food issue.LOVE this board!!!

Re: What is your favorite Atkins snack?

I know those limits were implied in DANDR have some ...with a few porkrinds..... we were supposed to know from the word few that many as in a whole bag was bad. now they doi have individual serving bags that are about an ounce but from your discription of eating it I'm thinking you had a big multi serving bag.
