As a mom of 2 toddlers, I’m always on the go – be it taking the kids to a farm or a park, play dates, or going out of town; our weekends are mostly spent outside. Kids are kids; they love to explore, climb on top of things, get dirty, and so much more. To make up for the fact that my husband and I work full-time 5 days a week, we take them somewhere fun every weekend to let them do all these things that they love. Being out and about means that I have to make sure our diaper bags are filled with snacks, tons and tons of it. And it’s not just any snacks, I have to make sure the kids’ snacks are always healthy.
The problem with me being a mom is, I tend to not pack snack for myself because what I usually have for snack is not healthy for my kids. And you probably know how kids are – they always eat what Mommy is eating. So I would always end up just eating what’s left from my kids’ snacks. I’d be lucky if I can find a place to buy food for myself (that’s healthy) while we’re out; but sometimes I’d just have to wait until we get home so I can eat (while hiding). Good thing, I found out about Lorissa’s Kitchen meat snacks.
Lorissa’s Kitchen meat snacks are perfect for our on-the-go lifestyle. They are shelf-stable which means they don’t spoil. And in my world, that means I don’t have to stress myself out sniffing their snack and figuring out if they could still be eaten; or worrying the entire trip if the fruits are going to make it. They are filled with protein to keep us going – running after and with our kids, exploring, or running errands.
Lorissa’s Kitchen meat snacks not only taste good, they are also made from responsibly raised livestock – 100% grass-fed beef, antibiotic free chicken and pork, and no added growth hormones. They have 11 grams of protein per serving, no nitrites, no added MSG, no preservatives, and gluten free. Now I don’t have to feel bad and hide from my kids whenever I’m snacking! Thanks to Lorissa’s Kitchen, I can now share my snacks with my kids and enjoy them as a family. You can read more about their meat snacks here.
These meat snacks from Lorissa’s Kitchen come in 4 different tasty flavors – Sweet Chili (Pork), Korean Barbecue (Beef), Ginger Teriyaki (Chicken), and Szechuan Peppercorn (Beef). Try these delicious protein-filled meat snacks and see why we love them; get them from Amazon.
We recently went on a family trip to Washington, D.C. One morning, we decided to just relax and hang around the Washington Monument. The kids spent the morning running around, exploring, chasing birds and squirrels. And when they got hungry, we all shared the snacks I brought with us – along with fruits, crackers, and cookies, we enjoyed our Lorissa’s Kitchen meat snacks.
These protein-filled meat snacks from Lorissa’s Kitchen were perfect to keep our hunger at bay and gave us a boost of energy that we needed to be able to function as happy and not “hangry” parents. I love how these meat snacks allowed me to conveniently pack snacks during our trips; which means I get to spend more time Mommy-ing and less time preparing. These amazing meat snacks are absolutely going to be a snack staple at our house and whenever we’re traveling!

I feel you on getting the left overs of our kids! Sooo me! You’re lucky you have that kind of healthy snacks in your area. Nice post!
That is so true! Thank you!
I bet these are so good! And the best part that I like is that they dont spoil! That’s a win right there! 🙂
So true! Thank you!
Those look yummy. The mom snack is a real problem sometimes lol
They really are! You should absolutely try them.
I’m guilty of either enjoying my vacation too much and eating waaaayyy too much, waayyyy too recklessly, or I focus too much on what I’m eating and don’t enjoy my time as much as I should. It’s all about balance and I need to learn to find a medium. These snacks would be absolutely perfect next time! 🙂
Christie’s Take on Life. xx
Lol! I eat waaay too much and drink lots of soda even on normal days. I feel guilty all the time!
What an awesome idea! I love jerky but never considered it for a traveling snack for my son! Light bulb on, thanks 🙂
Glad you find it helpful! Thanks!
I love jerky, but my kids are so picky. These are definitely good mom snacks!

Healthy snack options are so important. Being a vegetarian I struggle while traveling.

That is so true! It’s hard to be “hangry” when traveling.
Those look yummy, I always loved jerky on road trips! My family were big fans of fast food, but my husband and I plan on stopping at more healthy places like sandwich shops instead of McDonald’s when we travel.
That is such a great idea!
Awwww those snacks looks delicious. I always carry snacks for me and family each time we go somewhere .
Me too! And these made healthy snacking so much easier.
love me some jerky! These all look really good.
They really are. Thank you!
If the kids liked them I’ll have to check these out. Not a big fan of jerky but sometimes its the perfect snack for running around.
Thank you! I hope you like it too!
These look yummy. I am so guilty of having the unhealthy snacks on deck. But they look like a great try. Especially if the kiddies like it 😉
Lol, I’m so glad I’m not the only one.

That is so true! Snacks make it so much easier to travel with them.
Oh I like the idea of getting more protein in my snacks – and in my two boys’ snacks. I think this one would be perfect to toss in the bag before heading to the park. It seems they always get hungry after playing for about an hour!
They really are perfect for that! Glad you found this helpful.
I am always looking for new healthy snacks perfect for travel!
These are perfect for that!
I love that there are so many companies now making healthy snacks like this! These look delicious.

That is so true!
I just had these the other day for the first time. Definitely delicious!
Glad to know you loved them!
The Korean Barbecue flavored beef is so good! I buy it at BJs all the time. My other go-to on the go snacks are raw nuts and baby carrots.
Glad to know you loved them! Raw nuts & baby carrots sound amazing too!
These looks so yummy. And I can def relate I always forget to pack snacks for myself
Lol! Us moms… They really are yummy!

Yummy!! Healthy snacks are sometimes hard for me to find because I’m so picky but this looks great !
They really are great! I hope you like them!
Love the idea of a shelf stable snack that is protein based. So much of what I usually give them is fruit or grain based, which is fine here and there but sometimes they need a little more. Thanks for sharing!
That is so true! And these are perfect for those days!
I have the same problem. I’ll have to check these out. I am gluten-free as well. Do you know if they are soy free?!
Thank you! I hope you like them. I don’t think they are but you might want to check each flavor to see if one of them is.
This looks like a great snack! It’s tough to be healthy on the go but with something so easy to pack you can’t go wrong!
That is so true! It makes it easier to eat healthy even when traveling.
Great idea for healthy and tasty food on the go with little ones.
Thank you! That is so true!
I love that these are Gluten Free! Definitely adding to my grocery list!
How awesome! Let me know how you like them!
