I need help. I usually put cheddar cheese and salsa on triscuits for snacking but i need more low carb ideas of other things to do with my crackers. Does anyone have any ideas? Cream cheese is good but with what else? I like to layer my crackers but don't know what else to use.
I love my triscuits. I usually just eat mine plain.
I agree with the chicken salad or tuna salad. Maybe try putting a lunch meat on them and then some cheese on top and then baking them. They are so good!!

How about peanut butter and sugar-free jam. Or sliced tomato with a little dabble of mayonaise or sliced cuccumber. Oh, smoked salmon would be great on a triscuit. Or some imitation crab salad. YUM, making me want some.

What I can't get over are the number of carbs in Triscuits. Something like 14g for 4. I hate to say it, but I can eat several tortilla chips with cheese and salsa and consume fewer carbs. Especially when 4 Triscuits isn't many. Before I was diagnosed with IR, I would easily eat 12 of them with melted cheese for lunch. That's 42g of carbs. That's quite a bit, especially when I was drinking Coke with them.
Moderation is the key, eh. That's why I like the IR diet. I still don't eat 12 Triscuits in a sitting, but at least I can link them with the cheese (or cream cheese... Hmmmm, there is a Roasted Red Pepper cream cheese out now that would be just the thing on them).

Ajani, i admit i am somewhat ignorant to their carb content. I do the sugarbusters plan and you don't count them but you are supposed to practice not overeating. I eat triscuits all the time for an after work snack. I am going to have to keep it to a minimum now that i know about the carb content. ALso, i eat those small triangle ones. i don't know if they are less or not, i hope so.
Small triangle ones? Hmmm, we don't have those here. They sound interesting. Do they have the nutritional info on the box? I'd love to hear the carb content of them.

Cream cheese blended with finely chopped olives, either black or green, is great.
Any nut butter would be fantastic.
Summer sausage slices with horseradish sauce would be delicious.
Dipping into a sour cream-based dip would be delicious but not very nutritious.
Egg salad--yum!

They are called Triscuit Thin Crisps. Triscuits are whole grain like Wheat Thins, so the carbs in them are good for you. Just eat in moderation like you would anything else. Here is the Nabisco site and what they recomend for toppers and dips for the reduced fat Wheat Thins and Triscuits. Toppers and Dips
