The key to making bacon your ketogenic snack is making sure that you have bacon cooked!

Olives
I’ll admit, I am not a fan of olives – but I hear from so many of you that olives are where it’s at for KETO snacking.

Pepperoni
Another quick and easy KETO snack you can buy is a bag of pepperonis.
The biggest problem in our house with buying pepperonis, is that we can never buy enough. Our kids get a hold of them and well, that’s it for the pepperonis. So if you are using this meat as a snack and have pepperoni-stealing kids – make sure you hide your pepperonis!
