Pirate Brands, maker of Pirate’s Booty and other healthy baked snacks is always working hard to come up with healthy yet delicious treats to satisfy your craving for salty stuff. Their products go great at barbeques and they’ve kindly sent over some tips for keeping all of the dishes which surround your Pirate’s Booty healthy too. This is actually the way I grill out, so I thought I’d pass them along!
- Go Lean, or go home. Instead of a fatty New York strip steak or pork chop, select lean meats like chicken (sans the skin), top sirloin or pork tenderloin. Grill up burgers using lean ground turkey or bison. Fish is also delish on the barbie! For meatless meals try veggie burgers or Portobello mushrooms.
- Make sure to veg out. Grilling veggies is not only healthy, but the process really brings out the natural flavors and juices. Some great grilled vegetables include corn, zucchini, eggplant and bell peppers. Shish kabobs are always a hit as they’re fun to make and eat with the family! (more…)

The Superbowl is a definite reason to party, but it definitely does NOT come with a legitimate reason to gorge on belly bustin’ food for four quarters! It makes no sense for you to become fatter while your heroic athletes are becoming fitter. See where I’m going with this? You guessed it! Keep the excitement high and the fat content and calories low; it’s really not that hard. Grill chicken breasts instead of burgers, skip the mayo and pick light beer over dark . You can also replace those traditionally greasy bowls of fried chips scattered around your party with better choices like Baked Kettle Brand Chips or Pirate’s Booty Puffed Snacks!
You can still snack, just snack smarter! Yes – you can still have all of the flavors you love! Yes – you can enjoy these tasty treats without squeezing out of your jeans by the end of the night! Seriously, Baked Kettle Brand Chips and Pirate’s Booty Puffed snacks will allow you to crunch up the salty stuff while maintaining your ship shape bod. With only 120 to 130 low fat calories per serving, your taste-buds will be tingly with delight and booty will look better than Payton Manning’s in his too-tight football pants! (more…)
