I saw my doctor recently and while talking about what a lazy fat-ass I am, he mentioned something about replacing the crap I usually snack on with healthier snacks like seasoned air-fried cauliflower or something like that. So what are your favorite healthy-ish snacks that can be made relatively quickly when I feel like shoving food in my face for no reason other than boredom and force of habit?
No one mentioned it, so I’ll throw it out here:
Popcorn.
I’m not particularly concerned about avoiding fat or salt, so I drown it in butter, but you do you.
After one of my kids killed our microwave by putting a package of popcorn in it and turning it on for way too long and forgetting it, I banned microwave popcorn from the house and got an air-popper. The thing is awesome. I never liked the microwave popcorn, but the air-popped popcorn became my snack of choice.
Hmmm, yes, they do say popcorn can be a healthy snack, huh? Still, to invest in a machine that only makes one kind of food, in my not-too-big apartment…
Is it a big machine? Can you clean it in the dishwasher?
Stove top popcorn is too stupidly easy to buy a one off gadget. I make popcorn on the stove at least 3 times a week just using vegetable oil and flavacol. My wife and I are now spoiled on this popcorn.
