MoJos Premium PD Recipe

2019-12-31

Shakey’s Pizza Parlor’s cult-favorite was a basket of Cajun seasoned, battered and fried potato disks, eaten while you waited for pizza and sipped on a cold beer. On a Protective Diet, we are dipping our Batter & Baked Mojos in creamy dairy-free Buttermilk Ranch Dressing and sipping on PD Pale Ale. Thanks to Jerry’s fond childhood memories, Mojos received a PD remake and has become an oil-free plant-based cult fave. We are enjoying Mojos that are as fun and delicious as Jerry’s experience going to Shakey’s in his hometown. I was lit up with inspiration after learning of his childhood excitement at Shakey’s, eating Mojos dipped in ranch and playing arcade games with his friends while the parents socialized over pitchers of beer. Jerry’s only complaint was that they didn’t have pitchers of pop for the kids. Do you have an exciting childhood food memory or nostalgic tradition you have been missing on a Protective Diet? Please post it down below in the comments section. I’d love to learn about it.

    I grew up going to Shakeys after sporting events and loved the mojos…Julie hit this out of the park! These are delicious and make a great game day finger food, starter dish, or even main dish served with salad, etc.

I have weighed close to a quarter ton at my heaviest and have lost 213 pounds, over half of my body weight! I know that I will keep off the weight and allow my body to heal itself from all of the abuse I put it through because I am following a Protective Diet. A… Read more or comment “Denise N.”

Celebrating 5 years on the Protective Diet

Eight years ago my amazing wife Molly convinced me to try the McDougall Plant Based Diet. 5 years ago she started following the Protective Diet and quickly convinced me to join her. Without her daily commitment to planning and meal preparation we would not be celebrating transformed health while eating the best food I have… Read more or comment “Celebrating 5 years on the Protective Diet”

OTC… Read more or comment “Thirty days ago today…”

November of 2012 a co-worker told me about Forks Over Knives video. Her doctor had told her that she should watch it and give it a try. I had never thought about becoming vegan. I grew up on a dairy farm. Meat, potatoes and cheese were basic staples growing up. I loved my meat and… Read more or comment “Maria A”

My grocery bills have dropped $40/week. I especially like that PD is environmentally amazing: no palm oil, less… Read more or comment “Marci R.”

Drop in Cholesterol – Thank you protectivediet.com!!!

My cholesterol readings have long been my biggest health issue. I was once tested as high as 333. I have been fighting being 20-50 pounds overweight most of my life. The only thing that ever seemed to lower my cholesterol before this was regular exercise. But, I could never get it below 285. After becoming… Read more or comment “Drop in Cholesterol – Thank you protectivediet.com!!!”
