I've only been at this a week, but I've already realized there are different ways to enjoy some of my old favorites.
Today I used Humus on celery instead of cream cheese and added a couple of chopped olives on top for a great snack.
I'd love to hear about your favorite new food!

    I'm also new to hummus, love it! Thanks to MFP I've discovered Vitatops/Vitamuffins, the Hungry Girl web site, and (believe it or not), egg beaters. Of course, I've always known egg beaters existed, but never tried them until joining this web site. They are so convenient and packed with protein!

    Spinach-I've never eaten spinach before. Now I eat a salad with 6 oz iceburg salad mix with 6 oz baby spinach leaves and sometimes ham or chicken. And I can eat 12 oz of salad with only 1 tbls dressing and it is great! I didn't think that was possible before. Turns out veggies taste good if you give them half a chance.

    Greek Yogurt. I usually buy Oikos 0% plain and I like using it in savory dishes, dressings, dips, etc. I always use it instead of sour cream and even mix it with plain pasta for a creamy option. YUMMY!
