Crabalicious

First let me start off by saying this is not the most amazing food pic I’ve ever taken and doesn’t do these delicious morsels justice.  That being said, I just found out the benefits of crab, and let me tell you something, they are AWESOME. Way more awesome then what your “friend” got in college - ahem. Not only are crabs a great source of lean protein but they are also full of B vitamins which help change food to energy. Plus, it’s exercise while you eat i.e. cracking the crab legs.  Ok, that may be pushing it a little but it’s still fun!

First, you have to learn the right technique for crab crackin’. Check out the video below for the perfect crack:

Second, You are NOT allowed to dip in the warm butter sauce (not so healthy) but feel free to load up on the lemon.  My estimate is that the little cup is about 4 tablespoons of butter = 400 calories. SO not worth it. I asked for a few lemons and the little cup you put the butter in and just squeeze a shit-ton of lemons and then you have your sauce! Word.

For all of you Atlantan’s, get your crack to Fontaine’s on Wednesday nights.  They do ½ off snow crab legs and they are delish.  It's the perfect meal for a hot summer night.

  1. Have you tried @FlyWheelAtl yet? Removes all the calorie pressure!!!! In fact, you'll need to add calories and fat to your diet. Jeremy and Ann Marie are great, but Cathy KILLs it. She's proof you can eat anything and look FABULOUS. (Cathy and AM were at @Blast900 forever)
