Ask Dr. Joe

--- Healthy "Junk" Food

 

********** Question **********

Hi,

I think your diet looks really good, the only thing is, I never see any junk

food on this diet. What do you suggest during a football game, nuts and

water? I think I would die if that was all I ate!

********** Answer ***********

Chuck,

How about air-popped popcorn with tamari and nutritional yeast to give it a

cheezy flavor, frozen fruit juice pops, pretzels, baked corn chips with

salsa, bean tacos and burritos with no cheese, Chinese stir fry with veggies

or veggie "egg" rolls, baked potato chips, or sesame crackers with pesto

dip? I have never been to a party where I couldn't eat. Even pizza with no

cheese, just sauce and veggies. If you look in my book, you will find a

ton of "junk food" ideas. Let me know if these are enough ideas or if you

need more.

Yours in Health,

Dr. Joe
