I Love Nachos!

As a kid, I loved all the things you’re not supposed to eat: Pizza, nachos, chocolate milk. Eggs, too (when I was growing up there was a huge campaign to get people to stop eating eggs because it was “thought to cause heart disease.”).

In fact, I still like those things. Here’s a video from a fellow “muscle guy,” Lee Hayward, where he shows you how to make low-fat nachos.

Now if he could only show us how to make low-calorie beer with a full Pacifico taste!

3 Day Weekends = BBQ

Here’s how to make the best damned ribs ever. It’s simple, quick, and best of all, yummy.

  • Buy a couple racks of ribs at your favorite grocery store. I buy mine at Costco.
  • Drink a beer.
  • Cut into pieces small enough to fit in a clay or stone pot (you can get at Pampered Chef).
  • Drink a beer.
  • Smother ribs with KC BBQ sauce, whatever flavor you want. I use the low sodium kind.
  • Mix the BBQ sauce and the ribs in whatever pot you picked above.
  • Did mention? Drink a beer.
  • Bake at 400 for 40 minutes or so (I know, where the heck is the BBQ?).
  • Hey, drink a beer!
  • Fire up the grill (charcoal is best, but gas works too).
  • Thirsty? Drink a beer!
  • Smoke/grill for 10-15 minutes to give more flavor.
  • Eat, drink, and be merry.

That’s it. Super simple, easy, fairly good on the gut. Have fun.

Here’s to the fallen heroes. That’s why we observe Memorial Day after all.
