20 Fat Burning Snacks (That Taste Delicious!)

These are 20 healthy fat loss snacks that have almost 0 calories or A LOT of protein. If you want to learn how to make meal prep simple and make high protein healthy snack alternatives this video will help. These low-calorie snacks will help you lose weight and stay full.

What if you were allowed to eat tasty snacks while losing weight, burning fat, and building muscle. Wouldn't that make dieting a lot more fun and easier to stick to? Well, today I want to go over exactly that. These are 20 snacks that will fill you up, help you save calories, and help you take in more protein on a daily basis. 

And the first simple virtually calorie-free snack is a crystal light popsicle stick. These are super simple to make and they do an excellent job at satisfying your sweet tooth. All you need is crystal light, water, and a popsicle mold or alternatively, you can use an ice cube tray. Simply take the crystal light, mix one packet with the recommended amount of water, and pour it into your popsicle molds. Then put it in the freezer and a few hours later they'll be ready. If you don't have a popsicle mold they can be found on Amazon or at your local grocery store for just a few bucks. But if you want to make these now, you can use an ice tray. You would fill the ice tray with the crystal light, wrap the ice tray in plastic wrap, and put a toothpick into each cube before freezing. 

For our next very-low-calorie healthy snack we have kale chips. Now even though kale isn't necessarily high in protein it is incredibly nutritious, especially when compared to other snacks. It’s packed full of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. Just one cup of raw kale contains more than 100% of your daily needs for vitamin A, C, and K. (1) And making kale chips is super simple. Start by taking a big bowl and add one cup of bite-sized kale leaves, one tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and mix these three ingredients together. Then place the pieces of kale on a baking sheet and bake them for ten to fifteen minutes at 350°F while keeping an eye on them because kale chips can burn pretty easily. Once they're finished, each hundred-gram serving will only contain about 40 to 45 calories and unlike potato chips, it'll be packed full of healthy nutrients. 

Another excellent replacement for potato chips, that is actually high in protein is the quest chip. Quest is known for making protein bars that taste really good without being too heavy in calories. Well, they also make some very tasty chips that have far better macronutrient profiles than the chips that they intend to replace. For example, if we look at nacho cheese Doritos we see that a 1-ounce serving contains 150 calories with 2 grams of protein, 18 grams of carbs, and 8 grams of fat. Now looking over at Nacho cheese quest chips, a 1-ounce serving contains 130 calories which are only 20 calories less than the Doritos. However, unlike the Doritos, the quest chips have a whopping 16 grams of protein, only 5 grams of carbs, and 5 grams of fat. Now of course you can still gain body fat by overeating protein however, most people take in too many carbohydrates and not enough protein, so a snack like this can really help you meet your protein needs while satisfying your cravings. 

Next, we have greek yogurt and normally I tell you guys to avoid the flavored varieties because they're packed full of sugar, and instead to add your own berries to plain greek yogurt to save calories. However, there's a way to make this snack taste just as good and save even more calories. All you need is a plain greek yogurt and a flavored water enhancer. There are many different brands including crystal light, Mio, and crush, but they're all almost 0 calories and full of flavor. So just by adding a few drops to your plain greek yogurt, you can make it taste just like the flavored variety except without any of the added sugar. Of course, you wouldn't get all the micronutrients that you would get from mixing in berries, but you can also save the berries for a separate snack without adding any extra calories. 

Another excellent snack for you peanut butter lovers that are dieting you may want to try pb2. Pb2 is a dehydrated form of peanut butter. So it comes in a powder form and you have to add water and mix it to turn it into peanut butter. The great thing about pb2 is that it has 85% fewer calories from fat than regular peanut butter does. And it actually still tastes really good, I personally even prefer it over regular peanut butter. This is awesome because 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter will cost you about 200 calories while 2 tablespoons of pb2 will only be about 45 calories. Once you mix it with water you can use the pb2 in a number of ways including spreading it on apples, celery, or simply throwing some into your protein shake.

For anyone wanting to make the Veggie chips: Try laying out on a sheet and sprinkling with salt and letting them sit for a few minutes. Pat dry then apply the spray and seasoning. Leads to a crisper chip

Just tried the greek yogurt and mio - very impressed

Another one that I do, similar to the ice popsicle is home made ice cream with protein powder. I tend to make it whenever we have some left over milk which has been in the fridge for a few days and is about to go bad - last time I putted a banana, two scoops of chocolate protein, and about 400ml of milk in a blender. Optionally, you can put some peanut butter or even better - PB2 powder. After I blended it, I poured the liquid in small bowls and froze them in the freezer for a couple of hours. Tastes very good, high in protein, it isn't too sweet and it is just enough to trick my brain that I am having a desert after my meal.

Thanks for some actually nice ideas rather than the usual smaller portions or eat greens which tend to be on these kinds of lists.
I'm really not a lover of many greens so diets for me usually end in me getting sick of them and putting on more fat than I started with.
A lot of these ideas I might actually enjoy which means I can (hopefully) stick with them long term.

My favorite recipe I modified from a few sources is to make a banana omelette with berries, without the protein mix or oats used in this video. Basically crack 2 eggs and smash 1 banana into the mixture, then just throw in some raspberries or blueberries or whatever you have, I do it when it's raw so the berries sink into the omelette. You can cook it however you want but I just throw it into a small airfryer for about 20 minutes at 180c until it browns a bit

So you basically end up with a pancake that has no flour or added sugar and it tastes incredible

Literally this is the best channel i have found which has helped me a lot!

Ok, so I’m 36 seconds in and this video has already provided me with something new today. 👍🏻

[dbez]

These are great. honestly looking forward to trying some of these

Here is another healthy snack: Freeze non-fat milk and decaf espresso in an ice tray. Put non-fat milk and a scoop of vanilla protein powder in a blender, blend until it foams and add the ice cubes, blend until smooth. You will have a delicious protein frappuchino!

One of my go to snacks is strawberries mixed in with some whipped cream which is very tasty! The original whipped cream is only about 15 calories for 2 tablespoons (even the off brand stuff is very similar in calorie density), and if you use fresh strawberries with the cream, you get a low calorie, but very tasty, dessert that also gives you the benefits of eating fruit.

We're all about food with flavor! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SAVING US ALL!

12:50 Eggs (He says Hard Boiled for their portable convenience, but any style of eggs will do the trick. Use pasture-raised eggs. The ones that cost twice as much as regular eggs. They come from healthy chickens, generally not pumped up with steroids, that can forage and they aren't fed GMO grains in a cage. A drugged up chicken full of GMO will not produce very nutritious eggs. Just like a person who eats Twinkies and all day and takes Meth will not produce much of anything worth a damn. The darker the yolk, the more nutritious the egg. You get what you pay for.)

Thanks for the tips! I love watching your channel and always click thumb up before watching :D
When I did bikini competition I incorporated a lot of those foods. Recently I learned more about female body and hormones, I realized some of the low calorie ingredients should be used in moderation for a healthy female body, and in sync with the menstrual cycles.
Hope you provide some dedicated episodes for women :D I'd love to learn about your research findings and suggestions!

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I would strongly suggest using Erythritol instead of Stevia. A sweetener like Lakonto can be purchased in bulk.

This channel is the best. Thanks for all of the great tips my guy.

Ranch dressing powder mixed into low-fat plain Greek yogurt makes an amazing dip for cucumbers, cauliflower, and other veggies. Also the most amazing mayo condiment replacement. The powdered mix is low in calories, ranch dressing gets its calories from added mayonnaise. You can bake a cheesecake replacing the cream cheese with low-fat yogurt and cornstarch, and monk fruit sweetener instead of sugar. Don’t use a crust, just butter your pan lightly, and dust with cookie crumbs or cocoa powder. A normal sized slice is 100 calories instead of 400.

I've loved pork rinds since I was a kid, people ask how I eat that, but stay in great shape. I've cut it out of my diet, but now I think I'm going to enjoy some once and a while, guilt free.
