Slow Carb Snack Idea #2

As I've been following a slow carb diet, one of the best features is that I don't have the junk food cravings that I always used to get.  That is thanks to how satisfying and full a strict slow carb meal will leave you.  A typical slow carb meal will keep you fueled up for several hours and up to your next slow carb meal.  However, it's not always easy or convenient to keep every meal a slow carb one.  Maybe you forgot your slow carb lunch at home and you have to buy your lunch while at work.  As a result, hunger inevitably will hit you and you won't be able to cook a chicken breast or scramble some eggs to fill you up.  You need something else.
