Looking to get started right and read my story about how I and my entire family lost weight and got healthy following a Paleo-style diet? I included many of our favorite meals and even a great shopping list!
I don't go to the movie much as at all anymore except when it's a film that just can't be as good at home. These include movies like Avatar (IMAX 3D!!!) and The Dark Knight. Also, movie theaters are full of stuff I know longer want to put in my body. I might buy a huge diet soda now and then, but that's because their waters are ridiculously small and expensive.
However, last time, the entire family was groaning about going to the movies. I told them they could have any junk they wanted, but they all said they wanted none of the junk. So, I became a movie food pirate. I made us all some snacks to hid in our pockets! VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!
1. Pepperoni Chips: I sliced my homemade pepperoni thinly and microwaved sheets of them on paper towels. They come out crispy like potato chips with WAY MORE FLAVOR! Takes about 30-45 seconds per sheet. I ran 10 sheets. Should have run more. Came to about 200 chips.
2. Walnut, Almond, Macadamia Nut Bark: Coconut butter, 90% Dark chocolate, coconut flakes, and the nuts. Melt the chocolate and coconut butter together, mix in coconut flake and nuts, pour onto wax paper covered tray. In the fridge for a couple hours. Bring it out and break it up! Delicious!
3. Cheese Crisps: Microwaved some of our favorite cheeses, slcied thin on a plate. Peeled it off to cool into crispy cheese crisps. This is a way bigger pain to do right than pepperoni chips. Tastey though!
4. Sausage Slices and Egg: Boiled eggs with salt and cold slices of sausage. This is something I love and could live on. 2 eggs and some sausage and I am done eating for several hours. This was just for me. Plus, the kids told me this was going to smell like a fart in the theater. DID NOT!!
It's interesting how we are satisfied with a LOT LESS snacks when its better for us. Except the pepperoni chips. THose are pretty damn addicitive.
