Build it exactly, with the book

This board is in Charcuterie Lab: Keto & Low-Carb Boards, with 19 more keto boards. The book has the shopping list with the net carbs of every item, full macros per serving, the step-by-step build and the carb traps to avoid.

Why it works

Firm, aged cheeses and dry salami and pepperoni are the most travel-proof foods on any board: they handle a cooler and a car ride without sweating or wilting. Cucumbers, celery and radishes stay crisp.

Hard-boiled eggs and almonds make it filling, and olives and pickles bring the salt and sour bite. Pack it in one container and eat straight from it, or tip it onto a board when you get there.

Timeline

  1. Day beforeHard-boil the eggs; cut the cheese into cubes and the vegetables into sticks.
