NextAmber O'Hearn - Paleo Diet
Amber O'Hearn holding up a snack she calls Beef Jerky.
Amber has three children, who were all breast fed for a long time, and weaned onto a ketogenic diet. I thought that this was a rather modern idea. Not so. Amber's eldest child is a senior at high school.
Beef Jerky
Traditional beef Jerky is lean beef sliced very thinly and slowly dried at a temperature less than 70 degrees.
This may also be sugared, salted and spiced to prevent spoilage. Be careful what you buy, I avoid it.
Amber's version is dried, using an evaporator, without removing the fat.
She says that babies love to chew on this food. And for her it's a favourite snack.
Other Banting Snacks
I've made a carbohydrate-free cracker, based on nuts and seeds. You'll find several recipes online.
I also like to keep some lightly cooked muscles in the fridge. Sardines are also a good stand-by.
Occasionally a little fruit. Quarter of an apple, or a few berries.
Tea or Coffee with butter in it.
