Ingredients
- Beef jerky 0.6 oz
- Sliced cucumber 1.5 cups
Method
-
Measure beef jerky.
Weigh out approximately 0.6 ounces (about 17 grams) of beef jerky. This portion size helps meet the protein and fat targets for the snack.
Tip: Use a kitchen scale for accuracy to match the nutrition targets. -
Prepare cucumber slices.
Wash a fresh cucumber thoroughly. Slice it into thin rounds until you have about 1.5 cups (approximately 180 grams) of cucumber slices. This amount balances the carbs and fiber needed.
Tip: Peeling is optional; leaving the skin adds extra fiber. -
Combine and serve.
Arrange the measured beef jerky and cucumber slices on a plate. Enjoy immediately as a fresh and satisfying snack.
Tip: Add a sprinkle of black pepper or a squeeze of lemon for extra flavor if desired.
Pro tips
