    I had roasted aparagus tonight and it was tremendous. Like mushrooms, I used to hate aparagus (and most veggies) now I LOVE THEM and crave them daily!

    Chicken
    Avocado
    Broccoli
    Brussels Sprouts
    Sushi
    And nuts of course, like everyone else, but I try to avoid them as I prefer the roasted/salted versions which are so naughty :smile:

    I love guacamole, hummus, and salsa... I have trouble using healthy foods to dip in them though. Sometimes I use baby carrots or cucumber... but sometimes tortilla chips or pretzels blah.

    I crave salads with baked chicken CONSTANTLY. And sauteed broccoli (olive oil and garlic). Those two things are my healthy food addictions.

    I love navel oranges with blue diamond almonds. Another favorite of mine (i just invented/tried because I didn't have an apple) is banana, celery and peanut butter. Love it!

    Another one of my loves is "Manna" it's an unleavened ultra delicious sprouted bread, that I break-up (it comes frozen and you keep it in the freezer and cut off a small piece and comes in lots of different bread...fruit and nut, carrot and raisin, fennel, flax and fig and lots more) and mix with a whole cup of organic strawberries, a cup of blueberries and a cup of strawberry coconut milk kiefer--kinda like a homemade cereal of sorts...it's sooooo fabulous and makes a TON of food--keeps me filled for hours on end and I can hardly eat it all.

    The one I love the most would have to be sweet potatoes, I don't even put butter or anything on them - they're too delicious to cover with other things!<3
    However, I only like them if they have their skin on, in an actual potato form; I cannot stomach canned or microwaveable packages of sweet potatoes... yuck. :p

    Believe it or not (and you probably won't) but I crave "green lemonade." I juice a head of celery, five or six leaves of kale, an apple, a lemon and a tablespoon or so of fresh ginger. I drink it almost every day. When I don't have it, like today, I absolutely miss it.

    Hahahah, that's what I call my green juice..."Green Lemonade" because that what some of them taste like--because I add a lot of organic lemons with the rind still on them. Other ones (when I add hot cherry peppers or jalapeno peppers) and organic tomatoes and my ever present garlic (and lots of it) can taste like a TACO of all things (that's what my children say it tastes like:laugh: ).

    Taco juice. Now I want to make some lol!

    I've just discovered a new snack that is delicious and super protein filled...it's called:

    Dry Roasted Edamame Goji Blend...it's 120 cals for 1 oz and is super loaded with 11g of protein! This is going to be a new love of mine for sure!

    I love really cold greek yogurt with organic honey and half a banana. Its really helped me beat my ice-cream addiction!
    I also really love corn on the cob with some frank's hot sauce
    Chilli's- I love making a spicy salad with some red peppers and lime.
    Oatmeal, I never thought I would love it as much as I do, especially with the different combos you can have
    Sweet potato

    experimenting! I really enjoy cooking these days, the skinnytaste website is amazing for that.

    I love hot sauce on so many things and just read that it's good for raising endorphins! But, really what I want to suggest is oatmeal with cocoa powder, p butter and some truvia (or low glycemic sweeter of choice) yum!!
