Protein Packed Snacks for on-the-Go Munching

Snacks are essential for summer outings, whether you’re preparing for a hike or just trying to keep little hands happy at the park. So, when the snack attack hits, opt for these more nutritious, protein-packed small bites.

The secret? These recipes use pasture-raised, grass fed meats and wild-caught fish. This distinction gives them a higher nutritional profile, full of good-for-you vitamins and minerals that nourish and energize your family wherever adventure takes you next.

Chicken Gizzards

Small but mighty, pasture raised chicken gizzards are packed with flavor and essential nutrients like protein, zinc, iron, and vitamin B12 to boost energy and support your immune system. Boiled, braised, or fried, there are plenty of ways to enjoy these versatile organ meats. For a chicken nugget alternative kids will love, swap traditional frying oil with organic grass fed beef tallow for a healthier option, or try air-frying them and serving with a side of BBQ sauce.


Beef Liver

Another organ meat that packs a big nutritional punch is grass-fed beef liver. A well-known superfood, liver is a nutrient powerhouse, delivering a high concentration of vitamins A, D, E, K, and B12, plus essential nutrients like folic acid and minerals such as copper, zinc, and iron. If its flavor is holding you back, try it in smoothie form! Simply blend and freeze your grass-fed beef liver in advance, then add a few frozen cubes to your favorite smoothie recipe to enjoy all the health benefits without the strong taste.

Wild King Salmon

For a fresh twist on sushi, try adding wild king salmon to on-the-go sushi bites. Instead of farm-raised fish, opt for wild and line-caught fish that are flash frozen to lock in their freshness. Wild king salmon is known not only for its rich flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture but also for its high nutritional value, packed with essential omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins D and B12, and selenium, as well as serving as an excellent source of protein. Simple to make, just add your baked salmon to nori sheets, rice, and your favorite toppings for bites you'll love.
