0 Carb Snacks Overview

The hardest thing for me following a Keto Diet has been to know what to eat when I’m starving and in a hurry, or wondering what to eat when I have to run out the door.

That’s where this handy list of no carb snacks will help you.  Always trying to keep a variety of go to 0 carb snacks on hand will help you resist snack temptation and to help keep you in ketosis.

Our favorite place to buy no carb snacks is either Amazon or Thrive Market, simply to have a variety of zero carb snacks on hand that get delivered to you is such a time saver! We’ve included the links to our favorite products below if you don’t live near stores that carry a good variety of keto friendly snacks. 

When we say no carb snacks, we are meaning snacks that range literally between 0 carbs and up to 1 net carb. The net carb total for each is listed with the snack idea.

If you’re purchasing snacks and packed no carb foods, make sure to check the labels since not all brands will have the exact same nutritional content. You of course always want to choose low carb snack ideas that do not have added sugar.

Easy No Carb Snacks

  • olives
  • guacamole
  • cheese
  • seaweed snacks
  • no carb nuts
  • avocado

OLIVES

Having 1 ounce of olives can be as low as 0 carbs and up to 1 net carb depending on the variety of olives you buy.

Net carbs: 0-1.0

Making a medley of zero to low carb snacks makes the perfect lunch meal plan if you use olives marinated artichoke hearts, no carb vegetables, lunch meat and no carb cheese to put together an almost no carb charcuterie board. (focus on no carb cheese, no carb meats, and almost low carb nuts!)

1 T Guacamole

1 tablespoon of guacamole only has half of a carb! It’s so easy to spread guac on just about anything like cheese slices, bacon, dip low carb nuts into it, mixed with diced meats, eggs..you name it, the option are endless.

Net carbs: 0.5

Seaweed Snacks

Before you think ewwww on the seaweed snacks, if you love asian food, then you’ll most likely love seaweed snacks too! Our favorites are from Trader Joes again, they come in small packs of either salted or teriyaki flavor–both of these are 0 carb snacks! 

Even my kids love to eat healthy seaweed snacks.

Net carbs: 0 

Cheese

Whether or not cheese makes a no carb snack depends on the variety, so you’ll definitely just need to check the labels of your favorite cheeses. Our favorite are baby bell cheeses and string cheeses when we need something quick on the go.

Net carbs: 0-1.0 

 No Carb Nuts

You’ll actually be surprised to learn that YES you can find (almost) zero net carb nuts! There are only 2 varieties of nuts that have 1 net carb or less and those are pecans and Brazil nuts. Healthy nuts make the perfect low carb snack when you’re craving those carbs.

One ounce of pecans is about 15 pecan halves and 1 oz of Brazil nuts is 8 nuts. If you want the net carbs to be less than 1.0 carb you simply need to eat 1/2 of this amount. 

Net carbs: 1.0

*Be sure to get our free printable with the lowest carb nuts to keep it handy!

Avocado 

1/4 of an avocado contains 1 net carb, if you’re wanting to keep it even lower than that, you can easily eat 1/8 of an avocado or just have a couple slices. Avocado and eggs make the best almost no carb breakfast. 

net carbs: 1.0 

No Carb Snacks to Buy

Don’t think we’ve forgotten about no carb snacks you can buy, if you’re looking for something savory or sweet that isn’t a whole food or meat in a can.

These are all zero net carb snacks to buy online that make perfect no-carb meals on the go too. 

To be considered 0 carb snacks, some of these do have carbs but after you subtract off the fiber they become non carb snacks.

Zero Carb Bagels 

zero carb bagels

Don’t worry about missing bread if you’re on a Keto Diet, you can actually buy zero carb bread and bagels online. To keep these as low carb as possible, add other no carb snacks from this list as your topper like guacamole, or a slice of cheese and lunchmeat with butter or mayo.

Total carbs: 1

Grass Fed Beef Snack Sticks

zero carb chomps beef sticks

Chomps grass fed beef snack sticks are my teen sons favorite snack! If you live near Trader Joes they also sell them there.

net carbs: 1

One money saving shopping hack I LOVE to do is use the Ibotta free coupon app that often includes a $1.00 Chomps sticks coupon for EACH stick you purchase (since they’re sold individually). 

Check the price HERE

Here’s more info on Ibotta if you want to check it out, they even give you up to $20 for free just to try their free app. We saved $37 at the grocery store to first month we used the Ibotta coupon iPhone app. 

Cauliflower Thins

These savory cauliflower thins are not only a delicious no carb snack you can eat right out of the bag, but they’re ideal for crushing up and adding it to a salad also.

Pork Rinds

Parmesan Crisps

zero net carb cheese crisps

Parmesan crisps make a delicious low carb snack that only has 1 carb. While these are also easy to make yourself (and parmesan is actually a 0 carb food), sometimes you just want something you can eat quickly.

Beef Jerky

no carb beef jerky

Not all beef jerkeys can be treated the same, so many variety’s have added sugar you probably don’t want in your diet. 

What’s great about these Keto Carne Beef Jerky snacks is not only do they have zero sugar, they’re also the best zero carb foods.

My husband literally keeps a box of keto jerky and meat sticks in his car at all times for easy no carb snacks to buy. You of course can buy them on the go from the grocery store, but varieties might be limited depending on where you’re at.

Net carbs: 0

No Carb Sweet Snacks

Pourable Chocolate Syrup

0 net carb chocolate

Finding no carb sweet snacks is really hard to do, but you’ll be shocked to learn this chocolate syrup has 0 carbs! 

While you wouldn’t typically think of chocolate syrup as a snack item, the fact that they come in individual pouches and you can just eat it strait from the package makes it the best no carb no sugar snacks in my book!

Net carbs: 0

Cocoa Nibs

keto coca nibs

Cocoa nibs also make an ideal option when you’re looking for no carb sweet snacks. While cocao nibs aren’t sweet on their own, you could definitely mix them with your favorite zero carb or low carb approved sweetener. You could also add low carb nuts to create your own keto trail mix.

Net carbs: 0.2 for 1 tsp

No Carb Protein powder

zero carb protein powder

While some might not consider keto protein power a no carb sweet snack, chocolate protein powder is my personal go to sweet substitute, especially when I’m craving chocolate. 

Perfect Keto is the #1 rated keto friendly protein powdered comes in a variety of flavors including vanilla and salted caramel. 

Net carbs: less than 1

No Carb Vegetables

There aren’t many no carb vegetable options out there, since honestly vegetables are rarely 0 carb. There are a few of our favorites that make ideal zero carb snacks (or almost 0 carb) since they have just about the same amount of carbs as they do fiber. 

  • 1/4 cup cucumber- Net carbs: 0.8 
  • 1/4 cup radishes – Net carbs: 0.5
  • 2 celery stalks- Net carbs: 0 
  • Marinated Artichoke Hearts- Net carbs: 0

Note: We buy the Trader Joes marinated artichoke hearts, which are AMAZING! That particular brand is no carb, make sure to check the labels at your favorite store since some could have added sugar that would add to the carbs. 

  • Dill Pickles- Net carbs: 0 

Eating 1 dill pickle makes a super easy snack, you can also wrap it with lunch meat, dice it and mix with a can of tuna, or chop up to mix with hard boiled eggs and mayo.

 

Zero Carb High Protein Snacks

Here’s a few ideas for high protein zero carb snacks that you can easily buy at the grocery store. Any of these would be delicious mixed with mayo, hard boiled eggs, or chopped pickles for a quick no carb meal. Of course make sure you’re using zero carb mayo that doesn’t have sugar.

Canned meats and my favorite, smoked herring (from Trader Joes), make an easy lunch or even an afternoon snack.

  • Canned Tuna- Net carbs: 0 
  • Canned Chicken- Net carbs: 0 
  • Canned Tiny Shrimp- Net carbs: 0
  • Smoked Herring- Net carbs: 0
  • Bacon- Net carbs: 0

Cooking bacon in bulk, chopping it up and eating it by the handful makes a yummy and easy snack. Just about everything tastes better with a little addition of bacon! 

  • Lunch Meat- Net carbs: 0-0.7

Lunch meat net carbs can vary widely, mostly depending on whether that particular brand has added sugar like many hams do. You’re most likely to find no carb lunch meats by sticking to chicken, turkey and roast beef. 

Zero Carb Snacks to Make

While it’s super easy to just grab 0 carb snacks straight from a jar or package like dill pickles or a piece of no carb cheese, sometimes you want to create a batch of your favorite zero carb snacks to make. 

Here’s a handful of our most favorite and most popular no carb snack recipes you can easily turn into mini meals for lunch or when you’re on the go.

Keto Cheese Crackers

Cheese crackers makes one of the BEST no carb snack ideas since they’re salty, easy and crisp. Check out our version of cheese crackers that have 0 carbs and cook in 15 mins.

Net carbs: 0.00

The key to keep the carbs down in these is that you MUST start with a no carb cheese. Be sure to check the labels, many less expensive kinds of cheese add fillers like potato starch so make sure you’re buying real cheese.

Cream Cheese Stuffed Celery

Since 2 celery stalks have 0 net carbs, you can fill them up with a zero carb or almost zero carb filling like cream cheese and a tiny sprinkle of everything seasoning. My favorite almost no carb snack recipe! Plus it’s beyond easy.

Hard Boiled Eggs

Hard boiled eggs are one of the best zero carb snack options since they’re perfect with lunch, as a terrific no carb snack on the go, as part of dinner or even as a no carb breakfast option. 

Net carbs: 0.06 

We make sure to meal prep hard boiled eggs every week and our absolute favorite way of cooking hard boiled eggs is in our instant pot. I didn’t believe an instant pot could make a difference with hard boiled eggs until I tried it for myself. 

Get the recipe: Instant Pot hard boiled eggs 

A few very low carb snack ideas with eggs and hard boiled eggs includes making deviled eggs by adding a little bit of avocado, deviled eggs my mixing in mayo, or bacon and egg cups for a no carb breakfast.

Pepperoni Chips

If you aren’t yet making your own carb free pepperoni chips, you’re in for a real treat! Of course you could simply eat no carb pepperoni straight out of the package, but an easy no carb or low carb idea is to make your own pepperoni chips. They only take 1 minute to make in your microwave! Who knew?

Net carbs: 0

Parmesan Chips

parmesan crisps

While of course, you can purchase parmesan chips at the store, they’re tastier and cost less if you make your own at home.

Net carbs: 0.02

Oven-Baked Bacon

Is there SERIOUSLY a better no carb snack that bacon? I mean…seriously! Not only is it one of the world’s finest foods, but if you choose your brand carefully it’s a no carb snack too.

We especially love to bake it in the oven so we can easily cook an entire batch at once for meal prep and breakfast during the week.

Net Carbs: 0

    I’d love to purchase your keto diet plan, but before I do, I need to be sure I can get a vegetarian plan. I eat eggs & drink milk, but I do not eat meat or fish. Do you have a meal plan for vegetarians?

    Please be careful in posting “no carb”. Many diabetics are urgently looking for “no carb” ideas for between meal snacks. I wish those that are publishing for Keto folks would label these differently which would be more accurate…”no net carbs”….
