in Food and Nutrition
Here are some of my favorite healthy foods. What are some of yours?

Black Beans (I use them in a lot of recipes)
Sweet Potatoes (They can also be used in so many recipes)
Blueberries (I eat them when I'm craving something sweet. They are delicious and healthy)
Avocado (Good in a sandwich, salad or made into guacamole)
Hummus (Great for dipping carrots into)

    All of them. All foods contribute to nutrition in some way, and I aim to try everything. Prevents burnout, adds flexibililty.

    Anything with white potatoes, because nothing fills me up like white potatoes. Other than that, all of it! I am and always have been a big fan of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, fermented dairy, olive oil, and all that shebang people often introduce to their diet when they decide to lose weight and ditch when they stop watching their diet. These foods have always made the majority of my diet and I enjoy them immensely. No wonder I got fat, I just love all kinds of food. Sweet potatoes are an exception. I have tried them in so many ways, I just can't get over how sweet it is for a vegetable. Vegetables are not supposed to taste this sweet. Yuck. Onions and carrots is as sweet as I'm willing to go.

    All of what you said apart from the black beans, just can't get to like them. But my favourite thing is a couple of massive field mushrooms topped with halloumi or low-fat cream cheese and garlic if I'm looking to cut a few cals, then roasted in the oven... Mmmmm, I'm hankering after mushrooms now and I can't get them where I currently live. Now I haz a sad... :(

    Too many to list. In particular, almost all vegetables (if cooked correctly), and many fruits. Fish. Most nuts.

    Butternut squash - cut and roasted with olive oil, salt, and cinnamon! It's fantastic and filling.
