    You firm up abs with exercise. You show definition of abs with calorie deficit.

    You gain mass with calorie surplus. You "cut" with calorie deficit. You pick one or the other to try to achieve since it's practically impossible to do both at the same time.

    As for food, eating whole foods will usually carry a higher nutritional density value than that of foods that are highly processed.

    Try this site http://www.rippedrecipes.com/

    I haven't really looked at it too much but from what I can tell there are some good recipes there...

    And similar to what ninerbuff said you will have to drop body fat to see abs, and a particular food isn't going to mean firm abs in and of itself, "firm" abs are going to come from working the core muscles, being able to see them is going to come from a low body fat percentage.
