Healthy Munchie Reciepes that taste great!

[xcraighebert]

I workout everyday for 30 minutes so staying in shape is obviously important to me,
but I love smoking weed, so I've kind of come up with a pretty good little snack guide.
Most of these dishes take no more than 40 minutes to make and they are delicious.
Plus they are very inexpensive to make. 10 dollars at most for the most complex dishes.

Thanks for the health tips! I've been trying to diet and was doing good for a week (lost 6 lbs woohoo!) but then my will power burnt out and munchies started taking over and now I'm back to square 1.

Man this needs to be stickied and added to, munchies can lead to a weight problem. But the same aspect of marijuana that makes you eat cookie after cookie after cookie applies to healthy foods as well so if we could get a quick giude to healthy munchies going, it could change stoner culture forever

Who knows, marijuana could become then next weight loss phenomenon

Yea health is important to me and i now watch what i eat when i get the munchies, so thank you for posting these recipes and another really simple thing that i love to eat is just your basic fruit like: apples, pineapple, oranges, tangelos, bananas, watermelon, cantaloupe, kiwi, strawberries, blueberries, grapes, peaches, plums, etc. You get the point, but the refreshing explosion of juice after every bite is so amazing while your blazed. It tastes great and its really good for you so you dont have to feel bad about eating something really shitty. The other thing is it fills you up and since theirs juice throughout the fruit it takes care of your cottonmouth at the same time so your actually multi-tasking.

[Mwayles]

Yeah I'm definitely making those pizza bagels this weekend, just lettin you know beforehand.

Kinda pissed at myself for picking the unhealthiest item on the list but it looks too freakin awesome
