Have you ever tried Olga's Snackers? They are warm delicious pieces of pita bread, fried, then topped with a salty/spicy blend, and they taste GOOD.
I accidentally stumbled upon a Paleo version of these delectable treats last night while attempting to cook plantain chips. They aren't quite the same as the real deal, but they are much healthier and have that savory taste I keep wanting more of.

Paleo Plantain Snackers:
Step 1: Preheat oven to 250 F.
Step 2: Thinly slice 1 large plantain. (I like to use my cheese
slicer so that I can keep the slices as small as possible.)
Step 3: Melt a couple of tablespoons of coconut oil in a ramekin. Dip each slice of plantain into the oil and lay out on baking sheet.
Step 4: Generously shake each of the following spices over all of the plantain slices; garlic powder, BBQ spice, and pink Himalayan salt.
Step 5: Cook the plantains for 30 minutes before flipping and
adding spices to the other side of the plantains.
Step 6: Cook for another 30 minutes.
Let cool for a few minutes before enjoying! You will know they are done when they are crispy around the outside and slightly chewy in the middle.

Moves:
After all of the parties and get-togethers over the past couple of weeks I did not feel like going out last night, and since I hadn't gotten a workout in yet I headed to the gym.
I completed 25 minutes on the treadmill that looked like this;

This workout was a nice mix of walking hills, jogging, and sprinting. Switching it up after every few minutes makes these interval workouts go so quickly!
After the treadmill I headed over to the free weight section and spent about 20 minutes working on arms and abs. Done!
Off to cook up a nice brunch, look forward to new recipes this afternoon!
