Combine two ounces of whole-milk Greek yogurt, one tablespoon chopped walnuts, and half a teaspoon cinnamon for a sweet, but healthy snack between meals, suggests Franziska Spritzler, RD, a certified diabetes educator in Huntington Beach, California.

And don't be thrown off by the carb count: “Although the sugar and net carb counts may seem a bit high, the effective carbs are probably about half because some of the sugar has been converted to lactic acid during the fermentation process," she says.

If you want a little something sweet, Kendra Whitmire, RD, a nutritionist in Laguna Beach, California says dark chocolate that’s been sweetened with Stevia, not sugar, should hit the spot. Choose chocolate with more than 70 percent cocoa and stick with a small amount, like a half of an ounce.

“I like Silk Unsweetened Coconut Milk,” says Charlotte Martin, MS, RDN, and owner of Shaped by Charlotte. “Compared to other brands of unsweetened coconut milk, it's the lowest in calories and fat, and it's fortified with vitamins and minerals, like potassium, which most Americans don't get enough of."

A keto snack doesn’t get much better than this—chocolate, coconut, and protein pretty much make up these no-bake balls. And to make this recipe really keto-friendly, omit maple syrup and use sugar-free chocolate chips and protein, says Cotter.

Grab a food processor and add in the ingredients (until it forms a batter. Place it in the fridge for 20 minutes to let it firm, then roll it into golf-ball-size balls. Pop them in the freezer for 20 minutes, then snack away.

Avocados are packed with healthy monounsaturated fatty acids, along with plenty of other minerals like fiber and potassium—and they’re keto-friendly, too. “Avocados are one of my favorite keto diet snacks,” says Jessica Cording, RD, a New York-based dietitian.

She recommends eating one half of an avocado when it's snack time. Or, if you don’t want to deal with stashing half of an avocado in your fridge, Cording recommends looking out for “gator eggs”—tiny avocados that each count as a single serving.

Per 1/2 avocado: 114 calories, 10.5 g fat (1.4 g saturated fat), 6 g carbs, 0 g sugar, 5 mg sodium, 5 g fiber, 1 g protein.

One cup sliced cucumbers and 10 large olives makes for a great keto-friendly snack, with added benefits: “This is a great snack to help people in ketosis supplement their sodium levels." says Desiree Nielsen, RD, author of Un-Junk Your Diet. When you're in ketosis, your body needs more sodium, and “without adequate sodium, people are at risk for dehydration, constipation, and more dangerous electrolyte imbalances," she adds.

Per serving: 71 calories, 4.8 g fat (0 g saturated fat), 5 g carbs, 2.3 g fiber, 2.1 g sugar, 285 mg sodium, 1.2 g protein.

"One thing many people do not realize is that when eating a low-carb, ketogenic diet, the body's need for sodium increases," says Sarah Koenck, RD, of Virta Health in San Francisco. "Dill pickles are a great way to get in salt and a perfect vehicle for deli sandwich items, sans bread."

For this low-carb snack, wrap one large dill pickle with one ounce sliced deli meat and once ounce sliced cheese.

Although fall is the synonymous season of pumpkin EVERYTHING, if you’re on the keto diet, you shouldn’t skip pumpkin seeds. They’re loaded with healthy fats and protein, and this smoky snack only has four simple ingredients. The recipe from DeSantis uses smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and your choice of oil (for more healthy fat!).

It’s no secret that bacon is a staple of the keto diet, but coconut is a keto-friendly, meat-free alternative. And this vegan option is a smoky, yummy alternative, according to Brittany Mullins. You'll need unsweetened coconut flakes, liquid aminos, liquid smoke, maple syrup, and smoked paprika.

Surprised you can have hummus? After all, chickpeas are rich in carbs. But in small amounts, used as a “flavoring,” hummus can fit in a keto diet, says Whitmire, who practices functional and therapeutic nutrition and works with clients on the keto diet. Keep it to a tablespoon and dip in a half cup of bell pepper strips.

While chili may seem like a main dish, a small scoop of this keto variety can provide you enough protein (almost 3 grams!) to keep you going. "Use an Instant Pot for great fast cooking," says Suzanne Ryan, author of Beyond Simply Keto. To make it, brown your ground beef and sausage, saving half the fat drippings. Chop one green bell pepper and ½ onion. Pour meat, fat, veggies, canned ingredients and spices into your instant pot, and cook for 40 minutes. (This is also a great keto meal-prep recipe to have on hand.)

To make 'em, de-stem mushrooms while browning pork sausage in a skillet. Place cooked sausage in a bowl over cream cheese, and transfer mushroom stems and spinach into skillet and sauté. Add to sausage and cream cheese and mix. Stuff mushrooms with the sausage mixture, and bake for 20 minutes.

I guarantee this is the zestiest cole slaw you’ve ever tasted. If you don’t love cabbage, you can swap for broccoli slaw, says DeSantis. And bonus, limes (in this cilantro-lime dressing) are also a keto-friendly fruit.

Get mixing! Start with the dressing: Place all dressing ingredients in a mason jar and shake well. Then chop cilantro, red onions, red peppers and cabbage, and combine with dressing.

Why mess with a classic? “Cheese has almost zero carbs, and salami might have one or two grams of carbs depending on the variety,” says Norbryhn. She suggests purchasing high-quality salami from the deli, and mixing it up with different types of cheeses (gouda, Swiss, Manchego) for variety. Snack on one ounce of each.

Seriously, this is a thing, guys. “Avocados are a great source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, as well as fiber,” says Northbryhn. Cut prep time by picking up pre-made guac; some grocery stores also have breakfast hot bars where you can buy bacon slices, too. Just break two bacon slices into bite-sized pieces and dip into ¼ cup guac, she recommends.

“You might assume that you can’t eat pulses like chickpeas, beans, and lentils on the keto diet. But you totally can, especially in smaller portions," says Amy Gorin, RDN, owner of Amy Gorin Nutrition in the New York City area. "Pulses are a good source of satiating protein and an excellent source of filling fiber—and research shows that eating them daily can help your overall health and can even help you lose weight." Roast chickpeas and toss with oil (for added fat) and spices (to amp the flavor).
