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!

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
