Snacks on Induction

[KentuckyGirl]

Hello Everyone!
It is Debbie. I am trying to stay on the wagon today. It is day 1 for me after a miserable day 4. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas for snacks I can take with me so I am not tempted?

are you a sweet eater or a salty eater?

For sweets, I like using the tip another CCer gave me of home-made or SF whipped cream with a little splenda and chocolate (sometimes I freeze it, yum)

For salty/crunchy, someone suggseted putting pepperoni or cheese slices in the oven and baking them to the crunchy part. plain (uncooked) pepperoni usually does it for me.

Just a couple of ideas.

If you are away from home pack a small cooler and ice pack.
Here is some of the snacks I eat:

Turkey or Ham roll ups
Kraft makes cheddar cheese in 1 oz singles
Celery and cream cheese
Sliced cucumbers, red peppers, jicima
hard boiled eggs
deviled eggs
pepperoni
smoked salmon (kind in tin) with slice of hard boiled egg or dab of cream cheese
peeled ready to eat shrimp
a few cherry or grape tomatoes with slice of swiss or mozzarella cheese

Salty snacks

Can I have all the pork rinds I want?

I would watch the pork rinds. The serving size on the one's I buy are about six-eight pieces. They contain a lot of sodium so be wary of that. And like anything, eat only until you're full.

I keep pepperoni in the fridge at work and home. It is a life saver for me many times. I like it cold either by itself or with a couple of small slices of cheese. It's a great snack and very easy and cheap.

Sugar-free jello

Good idea Kim. Sugar-free Jello is legal, right?

You should find SF jello that is not sweetned with aspartame though..

I could eat cucumbers and/or red peppers with blue cheese forever. Sometimes I go weeks with having that for lunch with some turkey and swiss rolled up.


I cannot remember if it was on here, but I also like ham and cream cheese rolled up around a pickle.

Instead of jello, if you want that kind of puddingy thing...I sometimes heat up some canned pumpkin, butter, cinnamon adn then a spoon of cream or cream cheese. I eat it hot or cold. I do not taste teh difference b/w adding adn not adding splenda, but I do not.


TUNA!!!!!! CRAB SALAD!!!


lettuce rolls--use lettuce leaves instead of tortillas adn you can make burritos sort of

This was an accident that turned out well. I was making egg salad, but letting my 8 yr old help instead of pulsing the food processor, he pulverized the eggs. I added mayo, splenda, mustard as usual. Used red pepper strips and ate it as a dip. Yummy.
