Beef Jerky
Jerky is packed with protein and makes a delicious snack. Check the labels as sugar finds its way into jerky through the flavorings. Always check the ingredients as well as the serving size. You might be surprised to find that what you thought was a serving or two is actually 3 or 4 servings in a single package. While it may contain no carbs you will still want to snack in moderation. Some zero carb brands of jerky include:
Jack Link’s Zero Sugar Beef Jerky

Stryve Biltong

Pork Rinds
Pork rinds are lower in protein and carbs and higher in fat. Fat helps to slow down digest and, in combination with the protein, they keep you feeling full longer. Their crunchy texture also helps to satisfy your cravings for crispy things such as chips, popcorn and crackers. Check the nutrition label and choose pork rinds that don’t have added carbs from flavorings. Check out my favorite keto products to see some of the delicious varieties of pork rinds that are available.
Deli Meat
A couple of slices of your favorite deli meat can hit the spot when you are starting to get hungry. Roll up a couple of slices of your favorite meat and enjoy. As always, check the nutrition label as some deli meats have added sugars such as honey ham.
While not zero carb, string cheese has about 1 gram of carbs per stick. Looking for a more filling snack and you don’t mind the additional carb? Then wrap your deli meat around the string cheese to create a meat rollup.
Salami and Pepperoni Chips
Bake salami and/or pepperoni slices in a 375 degree oven for about 10 minutes until they are crisp. You can also microwave them to create chips. Simply place a single layer of salami or pepperoni between two pieces of paper towel and microwave for about 40 seconds. Enjoy some of these “chips” to fill you up between meals.
Shirataki Noodles
Made from the high fiber root of the konjac plant shirataki noodles contain less about a half net carb per serving. A 3 ounce serving of these noodles makes a filling next to no carb snack. Top them with a bit of butter and your favorite herbs, a bit of pesto or serving them in chicken, beef or vegetable broth as a quick noodle soup.
