Okay peeps, I want to watch a movie and want to munch on something different than popcorn without overindulging on calories. What's your favorite healthy-ish movie snack?

    At home I like to eat a big plate of roasted cauliflower, sounds kind of weird but I love it.
    Green apples & nut butter
    Veggies & hummus
    Cucumber sliced with lemon drizzled on top & Tajin (it's this Mexican chili salt I think, it's in Spanish but very good)
    Homemade peanut butter cups with banana

    At the movie theatre I splurge & eat the popcorn with butter.

    I like to have water crackers (a total of 8) and use the Costco cheese platter and split up 2 pieces of their cheese onto the crackers. More cheese depending on how many calories I have left. I'll eat that along with 2 cups of Walmart white cheddar popcorn or sea salt popcorn for 74 calories for 2 cups. It's like the other brand but can't remember that name but this is cheaper. I also eat Greek yogurt with chia seeds after letting it sit to thicken up with pyure sweetner. Super yummy! I love the Fage 2%...more calories that 0% but worth it as it is thicker, creamier and more filling. Or hummus and veggies or pretzel thins are good too or veggie straws for a serving that aren't too many calories. You can make up a little smorgasbord just for yourself and enjoy all of the above during movie time. I do and have been losing weight--21 lbs in 3 mths. Hope this helps a bit.

    Pickles are also good on the cheese and crackers!
