Duh! Am I clueless or what? Sometimes I am my own worst enemy!
Well let's see, you have "dairy" (Doritos are made out of cheese, right?), "whole grains" (beer is made out of grain, right?), vegetables (cinnamon is a spice; isn't that kind of like a vegetable?), and "grain" albeit not whole grain (for the pizza dough)... So, there you have your food groups! :lol:
cinncmon is GREAT no really it is google health benefits of cinnamon. It makes you feel less hungry and it if full on anti oxidents.
Beer is also healthy lots of calories but healthy. beer is made with malted barley once again google health benefits of barley. Beer is also loaded with VIT B if you have a beer and add it into your calorie count you can have it.
So here goes you can actually eat healthy with what you bought.
Pizza dough......... use low fat cheese. Top with spinach. just get a box of frozen and squeese the water out of it. On top of that add cooked broccoli, frozen that you defrosted is fine. Mushrooms if you like them I don't. Have 1 serving. I bet the dough itself for 1 serving is between 120-140 calories. You could have a slice of pizza for dinner along with a garden salad.
Doritos.............lunch............... heat oven to about 350, I do this in the toaster oven. Weigh the dorito's for 1 serving, probably 1 oz. Put dorits on a cookie sheet. I line it with foil. Now take a fresh tomato and chop it. Put it on top of of the dorito's. Bake for about 10 minutes. Weigh 1 oz cheddar cheese, shredded. top dorito's with the cheese and put back in the oven until cheese melts. top with salas.
Cinnamon rolls??????????? are they made or do you have to make/bake them?????????? You can make them into bread pudding less roll more milk and eggs so you have breakfast.
You have to know what to do with the crap food to turn it into healthy meals.
