I would not choose to pack hard boiled eggs for a ride snack, but to each his own. Something about riding in peak summer heat and then downing a hard boiled egg that is not refrigerated - not for me.

I like Walnuts and almonds. Very energy dense, very good for you as well. Extremely easy to measure out, can not finish it on a ride and take it with you on the next ride. Also good for sharing.

Greek yogurt and I will stick some peanut butter in there to spice it up.

Leftover cuts of meat and chicken make good snacks, and salads made from those leftovers are great, too. Instead of using only leafy greens for the salads, try using chopped nuts and diced fresh fruit like apples and oranges.
If you are into tofu, you can make an easy marinade with soy sauce, oil and dried chili peppers. Soak some dense tofu in the marinade, and keep that in the fridge. On a hot summer day, it's a great snack. |

If you're like me and think our obsession with beef jerky is out of control, not to mention terrible for our planet and not great for your body in large quantities, try some dry-roasted edamame (soy beans). I just found some the other day that are great for snacking between meals. On top of the 10g or so of protein you get per serving, they have something jerky doesn't have-- fiber!!

Since you said off the bike:
I like my greek yogurt with nuts and a bunch of cinnamon with a drop of honey. Avocado salad with salt, oil & vinegar. Bruschetta made with cheese crisps instead of bread + pancetta/salami nuts a spoonful of low-sugar peanut butter Trader Joe's sells a low-suger dark chocolate bar (with or without almonds) Jerky lettuce wraps: egg salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, tacos, etc. |

I don’t have any bright ideas, except to note that quite a few jerky products contain a lot of sugar. Not the best thing to gorge on.
When I was avoiding carbs, I’d snack on peanut butter and celery. The peanut butter is high-energy and the celery’s crunch is satisfying. |
