Beef Jerky and Dried Meats in Snacks, Cookies & Chips(1000+)

What are some low-carb snacks that I can pack on the go?

Choose nonperishable, handheld snacks when packing snacks to go. If you’re watching your carb intake, look for snacks high in protein and naturally low in carbs, like beef jerky, dehydrated cheese crisps, trail mix, and low-carb protein bars. If you want more substantial snacks, find individual portions of hummus or nut butter to pair with cut veggies like cucumber or carrot sticks.

What are some good trail mix recipes I can make at home?

Buy a few of your favorite nuts and seeds and mix the nuts with something sweet like dried fruit or small candy pieces. Add something salty like chopped beef jerky or roasted and salted chickpeas. You can add seasoning to make the mix either spicy or sweet. If you have raw nuts or seeds, you can try roasting them first to intensify the flavor.

How do I make a charcuterie board?

Charcuterie boards typically include a spread of dried meat, cheeses, fruit, raw or pickled vegetables, and dips. Find a large wooden board and start with larger items, for example, large wedges of cheese. Build in smaller items around the larger ones and balance the board by keeping similar items in proximity. For example, pickles, olives, and pickled beets on one corner; crackers, salami, and dips on the other. There’s no one way to set up a charcuterie board, so you can get creative.
