You can always go with anything with the atkins brand on it.
They do some pretty nice stuff for the keto/
Pick up a book called The Gourmet Prescritption by Dr. Deborah Chud
It's got all kinds of good stuff in it bro.
heres one, not half bad. I didnt use the cottage cheese and it was a good treat. I didnt use the crust either so that lowers the carb count.
You can sub sugar free crystal lite drink mix for the fruit filling and lower the cals and carb count. I used lemonade crystal lite and it was great.

Im a chef at a fine dining restaraunt in Biloxi, a lot of customers with concerns over carbs are turning to low glycemic carbs like brown rice, but you should look into Quinoa, not only does it satisfy the urge to wolf down some carbs but it only contains low glycemic carbs, great fiber, and has an array of amino acids that often draws comparisons to that of milk, i think about 15 grams of protein per serving.
