If you have to eat six times a day, you probably do not want to cook at each of those meals. There are easy ways to get your calories and fat content in without spending much time in the kitchen. Some of the things I always keep around are the low-carb vegetable flax bread, low-carb crustless cheesecake, pepperoni, cheese, walnuts, avocado, heavy whipping cream and cooked bacon, along with an assortment of low-carb vegetables. My attempt is to always get in 5-6 portions of vegetables a day, so I stick with the lowest carb ones, usually broccoli, asparagus, radishes, lettuce, zucchini, spinach, mini cucumbers and green olives. Pepperoni and cheese with a vegetable makes a great snack, as does bread and bacon.
A fourth cup of cream adds 1.6 carbs, but it also adds 200 calories, almost completely from fat so it can be added to any meal that is off on its ratio. A fourth cup of walnuts is also high in fat and contributes 190 calories (160 from fat) and 2 carbs. Avocado pairs with most things and has about 110 calories with 11 g fat and 1.3 g carbs for ½ of one. Since the bread has a high ratio, as does the cheesecake, I often use them as the base of a meal (or if I’m in a hurry, just eat those).
I usually cook about three meals a day, and throw together snacks out of these items for the other three meals. Once a week I make the cheesecake, and every two weeks or so I make the bread. Every three to four days I make up 3 lbs of bacon. Do these things on days that I’m not too busy helps make the busier days easier to manage.
