What's your favorite high protein/low carb snack (other than eggs or nuts)? Need to get more protein in my day, doing fine on carbs and fats but I seem to be consistently a little shy of my protein goal.

Jerky, parmesan crisps (the kind made with *only* parmesan cheese), cottage cheese, icelandic yogurt (I like the 4% siggi's in the low and flat-ish container), and peanuts - which are pretty much the only commonly available "nut" with more protein than carbs.
When I was able to eat deli meat I would do deli meat a lot. Jerky and cheese sticks are good too. I am following this thread because I do not get enough protein either, or if I do, there are loads of other fats and carbs with it
Brilliant. I love tzaztiki and never thought of this.
I buy the tzaztiki from Costco and it's great! Another weird thing I do is combine the tzaztiki with salsa and make sort of a hybrid sauce (not with tuna, but chicken and rice is really good)

Always looking for quick and easy 'sauces' for bowls- this sounds yum!

In that case, Costco also sells a green avocado and tomatillo salsa that is out of this world! It's Rojo's brand.
I love the in-house roasted turkey breast that my grocery store sells. I usually take a few slices of that and wrap it around a slice of avocado, bell pepper, and cucumber. I little salt and squeeze of lemon and YUM!
Hard boiled egg and a handful of pistachios Tuna with lemon and avocado slice Skyr (Icelandic yogurt. I think the most comment brand is Siggi's) in a tube. I freeze them and then they're like a tangy frozen yogurt treat. The tubes have 5g protein/6g carb/1g fat/50 cal.
