This Week’s Featured Snack:

Wild Zora: Meat & Veggie Bars

When Zora moved to Fort Collins, Colorado in 2012, she and her family would go on hikes and bring snack bars from her local grocery store… but she was disappointed that these “healthy” bars were high in sugar and very low in protein.

Zora began to make her own bars that were better for her and her family, including meat and vegetable bars that she eventually started selling at the Fort Collins farmers market. These bars were an instant hit, and she has since expanded to make other foods: chili, quinoa, rice, soup, air-dried fruit, and more.

This week’s snack recommendation is for the Wild Zora Meat & Veggie Bars, the original snack that Zora made back then for her family!

Wild Zora Meat & Veggie Bars are available in five flavors:

  • BBQ Beef with Kale, Tomato & Red Bell Pepper

  • Curry Turkey with Spinach, Dates & Cardamom

  • Mediterranean Lamb with Spinach, Rosemary & Turmeric

  • Apple Pork with Kale, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme

  • Italian Beef with Garlic, Oregano & Basil

We tried all the flavors above and Apple Pork was our favorite because it reminded us of breakfast sausage. Wild Zora has a dedicated fan base, with reviews calling these bars “insanely delicious” and “way better than beef jerky!”
