Its amazing how few foods I had actually eaten before starting my weight loss journey early this January. And whats even more amazing is how many new foods I have "discovered" while looking up some totally awesome recipies and snacks to tide me over in between. My question is "What is your favorite newly found food?" I ask this mostly to get some new ideas for myself and possibly others who may look at our list today. Plus its FRIDAY!! And I think most people do their grocery shopping over the weekend, so why not get a few more ideas on new foods to try for the upcoming week. I cant wait to see what you all have discovered! It's making me hungry already! :drinker:

Roasted bell peppers with garlic. I put them on my salads. I used to avoid them because of pesticides, now I buy organic. YUM.0

And my newly found foods are:
Pepridge Farm breakfast bread (that I found last night at the store, which is what inspired my forum topic).
Yoplait Light yogurts, the red velvet cake one is my favorite!
pita pockets! they are so cool!
Peanut butter...it is so good! on more stuff than just peanut butter and jelly.

Rice crackers ( replacement from Chips - I LOOOOOVE my SALT lol )
Lean Ground Meats ( Chicken, Turkey, Beef )0 -
Whole Grain Pastas (with tons of veggies and light pasta sauce)
GREEK YOGURT! The individual, fruity flavors are perfect for snacks. I love how it's thick like pudding. I also love how plain greek yogurt can be used as a substitute for mayo, sour cream, buttermilk, etc.0 -
Morning Star Breakfast sausage, Kashi Bars and Cereal, Fiber One Yogurt, I also really like any kind of veggie now.0

Peanut butter...it is so good! on more stuff than just peanut butter and jelly.

Asiago Peppercorn Sirloin @ Applebees!
Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Tomato and Mozzarella Cheese Salad @ Friday's!! Both are amazing!0 -
Nothing new - just eating a few things a lot more frequently than I ever did previously. I love eating almonds every day, and eating fresh veggies a lot more often (and in bigger quantities). So many things I already liked, but just ate junkier stuff a lot more.0
