Chips and Dips on a Low Carb Diet

Cucumber w/ Cream Cheese Sun Dried Tomato Pesto

I'm hoping to get away to the beach again this week with friends with kids.  I know the day will be filled with all kinds of starchy snacks that I could not even possibly think of having.  I've been practicing making low carb snacks.

I shared the mini pita and cucumber sauce, and the seaweed chips but there are many more snacks that would be appropriate, like cucumber chips and dip.




This is a very low carb snack coming in at just 4 carbs for this entire plate of cucumbers and dip. That is just 2 tbps of dip, I've divided over the chips.

I'm looking into other things that will taste great on cucumbers now that I'm seeing a great supply in the grocery store.  Also, looking forward to trying some artichoke recipes too.

It's Saturday and that's one of the days I tell you how I'm progressing.  I'm still plateaued with 14 lbs to go, but I have expected this just from the type of pattern I usually have when trying to lose weight.  If I can get through another week without breaking the diet, I'll continue to drop weight.

Have a Happy Carb Counting Day!
