Sweet Keto Swaps for Adventurous Snackers

Every day in the kitchen is an adventure when you start a nutritious eating plan like keto. At first, you may feel a bit intimidated by some of the common keto swaps, but there’s no reason to be—keto can be fun, even if you have a bit of a sweet tooth! There are plenty of ways to incorporate subtly sweet snacks and meals into your routine to satisfy your cravings and your hunger. While they may be low in sugar and not as intensely sweet as less nutritious options, swapping traditional sweet treats for keto alternatives may help keep you on the right track. Let these swaps guide you along on your creative keto journey.

Breakfast—Swap Maple Pecan Oatmeal for a Low-Carb Yogurt Bowl

Breakfast bowls are super easy and customizable, even when they’re low-carb. You don’t need an oatmeal base or an acai bowl to enjoy a filling, plant-based breakfast. Instead, try a keto base of cottage cheese, no-sugar-added Greek yogurt, or a chia seed pudding. You can top your bowl with an assortment of sweet and salty additions like nuts, seeds, nut butter, berries, and coconut flakes. As a quick and easy alternative to other toppings, you can even chop up your favorite flavor of keto bars and sprinkle them on top of your low-carb breakfast bowl.

 Snack—Swap a Grain-filled Energy Bar for a Keto Granola Bar

Whether you’re familiar with keto granola bars or not, you will quickly see why they are special. They’ve got the chewy texture of a traditional granola bar with fewer carbs, one gram of sugar or less, and no high-intensity sweeteners. The original Keto Granola Bars from Munk Pack® are made with wholesome ingredients like almonds, peanut butter, coconut, and no-sugar-added chocolate. These nutritious ingredients have a touch of sweetness straight from nature, making them 100% keto-friendly. Pack a keto granola bar for all the times when you feel your stomach growling and need some quick nutrition.

 Dessert—Swap Chocolate Chip Ice Cream for Keto Macadamia White Chocolate Ice Cream

You may not have dessert every night, but every so often, you can finish the night with something sweet. Keto Macadamia White Chocolate Ice Cream should be at the top of your list. For a delicious non-dairy keto dessert, you can even blend chilled coconut cream with almond butter, chop up a Macadamia White Chocolate keto bar made with wholesome ingredients, and combine the two together. If you eat dairy and want to give this treat a try, you can make it extra fluffy by combining heavy whipping cream with the keto bar in a food processor. It’s a recipe deserving of a chef’s kiss.

Making these kinds of keto swaps gives you the chance to be creative in the kitchen. Get adventurous and use your favorite keto bars in recipes with tasty, better-for-you ingredients. Here’s some food for thought: how many times can you eat a wholesome keto bar in one day?

The answer depends on how often you want to try an inventive keto swap!

Diet talk. It’s everywhere. Some folks enjoy discussing what’s on their plate or in their lunch bag. That said, if you find yourself overwhelmed by all this food talk, just remember—your eating habits are entirely up to you. It’s not so much that talking about the types of food you enjoy is a bad  thing; it’s more that demeaning any foods you choose not to eat can affect others. It could hurt someone’s feelings or make them feel like eating what intuitively feels right for their nutritional needs is wrong. So, how can you approach diet talk with an inclusive perspective? Here are some key things to keep in mind.   Keto Bar Food Is Fuel   People need food to survive. Yes, sometimes it tastes good, and sometimes it tastes not-so-good.
