Killer Eats

There are a lot of foods out there that, if eaten often, can turn on you and eventually push you faster toward your demise. You know the ones: fat, juicy cheeseburgers; chili cheese fries; chocolate cake; even good old lasagna and pizza.

Now I love most of these foods, except for the ones deep-fried or that contain animal protein. I like to indulge in something naughty but nice, too, ya know.

It’s just that I have dedicated most of my life to healthy food options, to eschewing the fat and gristle so that I may enjoy my life longer and happier. Because, I truly believe that you are what you eat, and that to me means feeling better by eating good foods, like:

· Fruits

· Veggies

· Whole grains

· Beans

· Nuts

· Lean protein like fish

· Green tea

And by avoiding:

· Excess carbs

· Unhealthy fats

· Sodium

· Fatty meats

All of the above is how I live my life most of the time…and I am a better person for it.

But I still need my killer foods, but the good “killer.”

Recently, I have produced a few “how to make killer foods” videos, several that have gone on to become some of my most popular. Like this one:

How to...Make a Killer Fried Egg Sandwich

And this one:

How to...Make a Killer Spinach Omelette

I try to make these “killer” meals as healthy as possible, but with cheese and butter it is not always possible. So I produced this video:

How to...Make a (Healthier) Killer Fried Egg Sandwich

Hey, I eat like a rabbit chasing an iguana most of the time, so I try to cut myself some slack every once and a while and eat something a tad bit bad for me…in moderation. And rarely.
