For me it has to be

Meat: - Fish, I love fish, my love for fish i can never explain. Haha especially Salmon!

Fruit: - Watermelon and apparently when i was a kid like 3, my mother told me i would cry if anyone ate watermelon and would go and try to hide them so no one will eat it, hmm i guess some things never change! haha!

Veggie - OMG Hands down, No second thoughts! MUSHROOMS!!!! I love them, i can eat a whole bowl of just mushrooms grilled every day for the rest of my life and i wouldn't get sick of it!

    meat - chicken fingers (i know i know, i shouldn't eat fried foods, but whatever chicken fingers are one of my weaknesses!)
    veggie - BROCCOLI!
    fruit - bananas but they have to be very starchy and still a little green
  • Meat: I would definitly have to say beef. Probably burgers - you can make them in so many different ways!

    Fruit: Hm...this is tough. I would say mangoes or bananas. Or just mangoes AND bananas in a smoothie together!

    Vegetable: I'm with you on the mushrooms, but I LOVE asparagus! Or canned sweet peas...my grandma's specialty at Thanksgiving haha!

    I guess I'm pretty indecisive.... ^_^

    Meat - STEAK. I eat more chicken, turkey, and fish than steak, but I can't get by without steak. For one thing, I have a severe potassium deficiency (my body doesn't absorb it like it should no matter how much I consume) and for some reason steak/red meat helps with that more than other higher potassium foods. For another thing, steak is yummy.

    Vegetable - BROCCOLI! I love it raw or steamed, but only fresh (not frozen). No need for a dip or anything on it - I just chow down. Yesterday I just grabbed a crown, washed it off, and munched on that. My husband joked that it looked like I was walking around gnawing on a tree, but it is soooooo good!

    Fruit: BANANA. Whoever said that bananas lead to belly fat clearly has not met me. I shed more than 18" off my waist and I eat at least one - often two - bananas every day. Once again, I need the potassium, but it also fuels me and is easy on my extremely easily upset stomach (I have a pathological gastric hyper-secretory condition) so even on bad tummy days I can eat those.

    Meat: Turkey Breast - I can cook that a million different ways and it's always amazing... lean & takes on flavor easily without a lot of junk added in (i.e., sodium based junk)

    Fruit: Strawberries - I can eat them by the pound when they're in season. I live about a 2 hour drive from a strawberry farm and we're always putting in orders that for flats of fresh berries in the summer

    Veggie (TIE) - Brussel Sprouts or Zucchini - Love to make roasted brussel sprouts or chop them into stir fry or put them on skewers on the grill.... but zucchini is a fav too. I use them even for breakfast, sliced and sauteed in a drizzle of olive oil then folded into my egg whites or egg beaters. YUM!

    Meat: Shrimp. I could probably live without red meat or poultry, but I love shrimp.
    Fruit: I love fruit so this will be a tough one. I cannot just pick one. Strawberries, watermelon and grapes.
    Veggie: This will also be a tough one. Probably brocoli is the one that can't live without.
