What is it about the act of eating that keeps me mesmerized? \u00a0Sometimes, I think I’m simply eating to work out my elbow and forearm<\/strong>. \u00a0Hand to mouth. \u00a0Hand to mouth.<\/p>\n

Foods that can satisfy hand to mouth<\/strong> obsession are: grapes (red, green or black), popcorn, M&M’s, popcorn, Reece’s Pieces, popcorn. Is there really only one thing healthy in that list?<\/em><\/p>\n

I’ve been thinking of healthier<\/strong> ways to work out my forearm with these savoury snacks. \u00a0They are simple, quick and satisfying.<\/p>\n

When I say quick, I mean as quick as your oven can cook . . . if your oven is functioning properly . . . mine wasn’t getting up to temperature so something that should have taken about 20 minutes, took WAY LONGER.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Add the dill, cayenne and salt.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Mix all together . . . head to the oven and bake for around 20-30 minutes. \u00a0If you want crispy beans, leave in for at least 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Like I said before, my oven was not getting up to temperature, and I had it at 425 F for around 40 minutes and they STILL weren’t up to my crunch desired level.<\/p>\n
