Takeaway or Fakeaway meals and healthy snacks I have ideas aplenty here. While we are watching films or sports we often fancy a snack or two but those snacks don’t have to ruin your weight loss. Instead of buying movie snacks at the cinema, these ideas should also help.
Here are some great ideas to help you enjoy a few hours in front of the TV eating and not gain weight in the process. Why not enjoy one of my recipes for tea first to fill you up?

Super healthy movie snacks
Homemade chips – I make them in my Actifry and they are lovely!
Salsa – If you are going to have some crisps as your cinema snacks make some salsa to save some calories.
Dips such as garlic, humous and more can be made much healthier dip recipes.
Fruit kebabs – this can make fruit a little more fun, skewers can be cheaply bought in most supermarkets.
Freeze some fruit – grapes, watermelon, pineapple and raspberries are all lovely frozen, you could even try frozen fruit kebabs.
Eggs in ham – a quick easy snack.

Crudities and dips – there are lots of vegetables you could have with dips such as peppers, baby corn, spring onions, mangetout, sugar snap peas, carrots, cucumber, and more.
Cooked meats or Quorn roasts/low-fat sausages – this kind of thing is more filling than fruit and could make all the difference in stopping you from reaching for other things.
Make a curry loaf to snack on.
Healthier cinema snacks than you could choose
Mikado sticks chocolatey but not too bad so better than a big bag of buttons for your cinema snacks!
McVities digestive thins – lower calorie than the usual digestive biscuits and a smaller packet too.
Use smaller slices and wholemeal bread to make a sandwich, garlic bread or even toast turned into a pizza.
Use lo-dough to make a pizza. (Check my pizza oven review)
Quavers or low-calorie crisps, ideally from a multipack to ensure you get smaller bags, certainly better than family bags each! Crisps are great movie snacks aren’t they!
More snack ideas for those with a sweet tooth.
A homemade fakeaway instead of a fattening takeaway?
Chicken or Quorn and mushroom curry
Beef in black bean sauce or Quorn alternative
Lo-Dough Pizza as a pizza and add whatever toppings you fancy.
Alternatively, Lo-dough pizza could be used to make a calzone.
Lo-dough pizza base used to make a pasty.
Or maybe a pasta dish like Chicken Fajita Pasta bake.
Mediterranean Vegetable Lasagne
Could you have a meal like this as home movie snacks instead of a takeaway? Or eat just before you go to the cinema to keep you full and avoid too many cinema snacks?
