Keto on the Go – Keto Snack Ideas

When I first started the keto diet, I flailed to find snack ideas. To help myself, and you, I pulled together these keto snack ideas so you can keto on the go!

When it comes to choosing items on the go that can fit into your ketogenic diet, it definitely is a challenge, especially with such a restrictive meal plan.

The Keto meal plan is low in carbs, high in fat and moderate in protein. The problem with most food places is that most of their food tends to be high in carbs, however there are some keto-friendly menu items to pick from that they have available.

However, if you’re going to someone’s house for a birthday party, BBQ, function, or you name it, there won’t necessarily be healthy food that you need to eat according to your diet. Especially if you’re on a long road trip and you’re in the middle of nowhere, and all you have access to is a gas station which sells junk food.

Here are some ketogenic, on the go options, that you can make at home and take with you to enjoy on those road trips, sightseeing, work, parties, travel or other activities.

Keto on the Go – Keto Snack Ideas

Ground Beef Jerky

Ground beef jerky is easy to pack and take with you on the go, and it makes for a great low-carb snack which is perfect for the Keto diet.

Chicken Skin Chips

This is a delicious snack that tastes like chicken, because it is in fact chicken, but in the form of chips. What’s great about it is that you can customize it and experiment with spices, it’s also easy to pack and take with you on the go.

Hard Boiled Eggs

Hard boiled eggs make for an easy, on the go snack and meal. You can add the boiled eggs to a salad, even, or just eat them on their own for a low-carb and healthy snack.

Paleo Coconut Cacao Nib Granola

This delicious granola is tasty and Keto-approved, unlike cereal that is low-carb and a big no-no.

Cold Meat Wraps

Bacon and Egg Fat Bombs

There are so many different types of fat bombs, and a lot of them are sweet, but sometimes savory is the way to go. The bacon and egg fat bombs make for a great breakfast or light lunch, and are travel-ready to take on the go with you. Keep the fat bombs dairy free by replacing butter with coconut oil.

Mocha Chip Biscotti and Coffee

For something sweet, have a mocha chip biscotti with your cup of coffee. Need it to be dairy free? Leave the whipping cream and use coconut cream instead.

Pork Rind Tortillas

For a customizable on the go meal, the pork rind tortillas are your go to. You can fill the pork rind tortillas with whichever ingredients you like, such as, zucchini cheese and bacon for a mouth-watering combination.

Zucchini Cheese

If you haven’t had zucchini cheese yet, you’re missing out! Zucchini cheese would make the perfect snack and can be added to your other travel meals, like the pork rind tortillas and cold meat wraps.

Chicken Pot Pie

Yes, there is a Keto-friendly version of chicken pot pie. You’ll love the creamed cauliflower which sneaks in extra vegetables aka, added nutrition! Make and take a few of these with you, and have the perfect homemade meal away from home.

Oil-Free Carrot Cake Protein Bars

Here’s a delicious snack to satisfy your sweet tooth craving. Take a few of these bars and be ready to take on the world, wherever you may be. To make a Keto-friendly version of these bars you would need to use stevia instead of maple syrup, and applesauce instead of banana- and there you have it, a low-carb version.

Buffalo Spiced Cocktail Nuts

Mini Frittatas

Mini Frittatas are a great Keto snack, they’re also known as egg muffins. They’re easy to make and are customizable as well. To get started all you would need are a dozen eggs, a mixing bowl, a 12-cup muffin pan, and an oven- the rest is customizable and up to you.

Bone Broth

For a warm and comforting Keto snack, bone broth is the way to go. It may be unexpected, but it’s tasty nonetheless. Bone broth can be made using a slow cooker, pressure cooker or on the stove top. You can make a batch and divide it into individual servings, freeze them and then take them with and all you would need to do is heat them up when you’re craving this delightful snack.

Keto Sushi Rolls

Keto sushi rolls make for excellent snacks which are nutrient-rich. And it doesn’t even take long to make, like 15 minutes. All you would need is to get nori seaweed sheets, fish and chopped veggies to use for filling. You can choose from raw fish, or smoked fish, or no fish at all and just keep it with vegetables like avocado, cucumber and bell pepper. Boost the fat content by adding spicy peanut sauce or by adding cream cheese- as long as it doesn’t contain any added sweetener.

Avocados

Avocados make for a great snack and meal, whether it’s on its own or as a salad mixed with avocado and egg. Avocados are full of nutrition with heart-healthy fats, minerals, fiber, vitamins and anti-inflammatory compounds. It makes for a great substitute for mayonnaise in the traditional egg salad.
