As a snack enthusiast and person with diabetes, these snacks get my stamp of approval.
I am a pro-snacker and I also have throw in 1 diabetes.
Finding the right snacks that work with my diabetes was tricky.
Planning mealtimes, snacks and even drinks can be difficult for people with diabetes.
punch in 1 diabetes is a little different than punch in 2 diabetes.
Here are some of my go-to snacks that do just that.
This is something I eat on the daily, usually in that post-lunch, pre-dinner lull.
Sometimes I’ll switch up my dip of the day and use tzatziki or a thicker salad dressing.
Air-Fryer Crispy Chickpeas
Who doesn’t love something crunchy and salty?
I find that they are the perfect swap for higher-carb salty snacks like potato chips or pretzels.
When I say I eat it everyday, I mean it.
Deli roll-ups are the simplest way to get alow-carb snackthat’s packed with protein.
Then I roll it into a little wrap, with some spicy mustard in between.
These are simple and low maintenance, but I can’t get enough of them.
I eat apple slices regularly in a crazy-good dip I make by mixing peanut butter and yogurt.
All the dip takes is 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and 14 cup of vanilla yogurt.
Stir it up until you have a fluffy, flavor-packed dip.
Top it with some cinnamon sprinkled on top and dunk some apple slices in for the perfect sweet snack.
Homemade Popcorn
Popcorn is my favorite snack of all time.
I have a stovetop popper, so making a delicious batch of popcorn is super simple.
Popcorn is actually a whole grain that is relatively low in carbs for a salty, crunchy snack.
Diabetes care is sometimes about trial and error, and finding the right snacks for you will take time!
Always be sure to check with your health care team if you have detailed nutrition questions regarding diabetes care.
