Atkins/low carb friendly snacks/desserts

Apparently sweden is getting a big meaty hardon for the ol' low carb dieting... So here's a bunch of low carb tips for desserts and snacks!

Desserts and snacks.

Here's a low carb cheesecake, you may mix in some cottage cheese into it as well to give it some more texture, recipe courtesy of the interwebs.
Mix a package of cream cheese, an egg, a half-cup of Splenda (or other sweetener), a pinch of salt and a dollop of heavy cream. Put in a pie dish and bake at 350 degrees until the top browns (about a half-hour).

Sugarfree jello!
This is the primary cause for mouthgasms amongst low-carbers, as it surprisingly still manages to have some flavor to it.

Sugarfree popsicles!

peanuts with shells (meh, i don't like peanuts personally, but whatever.)

Peanut butter (make sure it's the natural kind without a bunch of transfatty shit added to it)

Cheddar cheese! (Note: not all cheeses are low carb)

Eggs: See my recipe for a delicious scrambled omelette

Almonds: woo!

  2. My mom's on Atkins diet, I wonder if it really works. Sometimes I eat her special bread and it's not bad at all
