Healthy Food You Can't Live Without?

Great question! Lately, I crave Triscuit Four Cheese Thin Crisps. Other than that, any kind of fish. We eat fish at least once a week, if not more. Salmon and tilapia are family favorites. Both are easy to bake or broil. But in the fish category, I mostly crave salmon. It seems that a lot of people love salmon!

My other must-haves are English muffins, chicken, strawberries, apples and yogurt.
