Notes
Watch the salt: Bear in mind jerky can be salty so if you're using a salty jerky, you might like to use unsalted nuts.
Bite-sized ingredients: If you want to use your favorite jerky and it's in strips, just chop it into small pieces before adding.
Spice it up: Throw in some cayenne pepper or hot red pepper flakes if you want a spicier flavor (or use spicy jerky).
