Everyone loves a good snack, but not all snacks are healthy. Most are filled with empty calories, lots of sugar, and no nutritional value, and they do little to give you the energy you need to get you through a busy day. One of the best ways to make a snack healthier is by adding protein, but again, this can be difficult as protein is not always the most portable, most snackable option. So what can you do? Why not try some jerky. Jerky is an excellent, high-protein snack made from dried, spiced meats such as beef or chicken, or even Vegetarian options like Tofu! Jerky is a great way to get a punch of protein into your diet, it’s highly portable, healthy, and most of all delicious.
Now before you get scared away remembering the neon red, hard as rock beef jerky sticks from the past, you’ve got to realize that these days, jerky is a gourmet food. The recent interest in low-carb, high-protein diets has made jerky a popular snack, and there are many recipes out there for jerky that is flavorful, soft, and extremely appetizing. There is a jerky recipe for every taste and flavor profile, and the variety of ingredients used for the actual protein source is quite varied.
While jerky products made at home are certainly all-natural and safe, jerkies that are commercially produced may contain certain chemicals that better preserve the meats and give them a longer shelf life. These chemicals can lead to stomach issues and cognitive problems and have even been considered as possible carcinogens. To avoid these chemicals, make your own jerky or look for products that are all natural and contain only real, healthy ingredients.
Jerky is an excellent snack as it is easy to eat, easy to store, easy to take with you, and easy to enjoy. It’s a great way to put some protein back into your diet, and it’s a healthy way to snack. There is no limit to the flavors and varieties of jerky available, and fresh-made, home-dried jerky is a fun way to make your own snack.
