Trail Recipe: Meat Salad

Meat Salad by MONTyBOCA

Don’t salads have to have lettuce in order to be A SALAD? Not true! You can mix up a bunch of great ingredients with a dressing for a filling and fresh crunchy bowl. If you are eating keto, low carb, or frankly just are a hungry bear, this recipe is for you. No burner, easy prep, and mixing gives you a different option for your day hike instead of that deli sandwich. So meaty!
