Default gift ideas?

My friends and I (all on Atkins) are doing a little swap where we send each little things low-carb related in the mail. Sorta like Secret Santa. Problem is, even though I am low-carb myself, I am just clueless about what to get my friend. Any ideas?

Thank you!
Katy D.

Why not a little low-carb chocolate. Or a weight loss ecard?

How about a new LC recipe you have tried and liked.

That way you can both be trying new things and giving each other ideas to keep things interesting.

How about a low carb gift basket?

Throw in some Davinci syrups and some other low carb items plus some recipes and you are all set.

LOL! That was great!

How about snacks. Everyone likes quick snacks...almonds, pork rinds, beef jerky, pre-cooked bacon (better not listen to me if they are watching their sodium ).

Or something useful like one of those really large travel mugs. Really helps keep track of the water consumption. Recipes are always a good idea, especially those that are quick and easy to prepare.

If you are just looking to try some new low carb products, Keto oatmeal is good. It is a great fiber source. I try to eat it daily.

Hope this has helped.

Wa'il, I LOVE the shameless plug!

Does your friend know the Pizza Quiche recipe? That's obviously a hit and would fit in with Lisa's recipe idea. A basket of nuts, cheeses, and Cheeter's crackers would be very nice too. Or maybe a gift certificate to Netrition!

Oooh, sounds fun. I think the recipe idea is great, myself. I always swap recipes with friends and like trying new ones, especially if they are fantastic.

Cheers! Sounds like a fun idea.
