What are some of your favorite healthy foods, not recipes?

I don't know that anyone would consider these healthy but I like Larabars. They average 180 - 200 calories each but most have no added sugar. Their sweetness comes from dried fruit. One of these with a glass of hour ends up satisfying my tummy so I don't reach for chips or a candy bar. Sometimes I'll eat half the bar between breakfast and lunch and the other half around 5:00 - 5:30 so I can make dinner without nibbling.

Some of my favorites from the deli...YES from the deli:
*Boars Head Low sodium roast beef
*Boars head low sodium cheeses including, mosarella, muenster, baby swiss and Vermont cheddar
*hummus...as a dip and as a spread for sandwiches
*frozen red seedless grapes ( my daughters ideas and they are AWSOME)
*lowfat cheese wedges like happy farms or laughing cow ( I use this to mely into pasta, as a dip for pretzels and as a sandwich spread)

Trader Joe's Apple Cranberry Bran Muffins. Dense, tasty, satisfying, and only 80 calories per.
(Larabars are good - I really like the Peanut Butter Chocolate - but they're just too calorically dense for my food plan at this point. Maybe when I can get more exercise in ... )
Plain Greek yogurt - cut up some juicy fruits, like plums and nectarines, and mix in. Much more reasonable than the Greek yogurt with fruit already in there.
Sirloin or London Broil - low in fat and carbs, high in protein and other nutrients. Trader Joe's sells an organic sirloin in a bag that you can microwave. For me it lasts two lunches, and I don't suffer hand-to-mouth disease those afternoons.
Apples - core and cut one up, put the bits in a bowl, and nibble as you work. Pretend they're apple chips if you need to feel like you're indulging.

Almonds

Thomasville 100 calorie, high fiber English muffins They make a great super-easy breakfast when topped with reduced fat PB and a generous amount of apple butter!! Yummy. Do a low sodium v8 and you have a nice, low calorie power breakfast.

Laughing cow cheese wedges
Emerald cocoa roasted almonds
Frozen bags of edamame

The local health food store had Customer Appreciate Day on Saturday. I received a few samples of Larabars -- Apple Pie flavor. It was my first experience with them. I wish I had received more!

Also, in no particular order:
* Quinoa
* Salsa -- as a side next to, or on eggs; as a salad dressing; with black beans.
* Fage Greek Yogurt -- cools down the hot salsa, and gets some dairy.
* PB2 -- dehydrated peanut butter. Try mixing it with greek yogurt
* Kashi 7-Grain Nuggets -- mixed with almond milk or 1/2 cup of organic applesauce. (Vermont Village)
* Bob's Red Mill -- especially steel cut oatmeal, Museli and old fashioned oats
* Fresh herbs from my garden.
* Nuts: Raw, unsalted. (Cashews, Almonds, Pecans, Walnuts) -- Bulk, from the tubes at Hannaford's or the Health food market
* Peanuts: Raw and unsalted. (same as nuts, or River Queen brand from Market Basket)
* Sunflower seeds: Raw and unsalted. (same as nuts)
* Bragg's Healthy Organic Vinaigrette
* Fresh broccoli (cut up and "steam" in the microwave)
* Sweet Potato (baked in microwave on "potato" setting; sprinkle with cinnamon.) (Baked potatoes have a high glycemic index -- raises blood sugar, which makes you hungry. Sweet Potatoes are low glycemic)
* Frozen vegetables in bags that can be microwaved. (Plain, without sauces)
* Arnold's Sandwich Thins -- whole wheat, of course. (They can be a little dry. Put a little more liquid with the PB2, or put a little Greek Yogurt on them instead of butter or mayo.)
* Salmon Burgers: SeaPak from Sam's Club. (Put on Arnold's Sandwich Thin with Greek Yogurt. Wrap in foil, and take in insulated container for a picnic at outdoor concert. Eat within an hour or so.)
* Bananas: One per day. I try to get the smaller ones, and not too ripe (Lots of good stuff in bananas, but the more ripe they are, the more sugar/calories they have, so I aim for the greener ones.)
* Wild salmon. (fairly decent price found at Wal-mart or Market Basket, in the frozen food section)
* Tilapia (a nice white fish; fairly decent price found at Wal-mart or Market Basket, in the frozen food section)
* Chicken (breast has less calories, less fat, but we prefer the taste of thighs. Sprinkled with garlic powder and either dried basil or tarragon; baked. Cook a big package, to have left overs in 1 or 2 days. (Eat plain, or make a chicken salad when mixed with greek yogurt and dried or fresh basil or tarragon)
* New York Sirloin (doesn't taste as good as Rib Eye, but has far less calories!)
* Eggs: 1 or 2 whole eggs plus 1 or 2 egg whites. Omelet with veggies. Scrambled (add minced garlic, dried tarragon or fresh tarragon and/or fresh basil, a chopped sting cheese; top with salsa and greek yogurt on the side.)
* Black beans (cooked with red pepper, onion, garlic, chili powder, cayenne pepper); served with brown rice.

Lunch: Sunshine veggie burger. (My husband prefer's Dr. Praegers). We put our "hard salad" on top, and then a bit of salsa. (He takes it to work every day.) Microwave for 1-2 minutes. I put the salsa on after heating, and have greek yogurt on the side.

Hard Salad: Every few days we make a HUGE bowl of raw veggies: carrots, celery, fennel, broccoli, onion. Sometimes cauliflower, leek, kohlrabi, jicama. We put a handful of this on our veggie burgers. For dinner, we put a handful of this in a bowl with "soft vegetables," including lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers. (Hint: To keep it fresh, put a piece of paper towel on top of the salad; the paper towel absorbs some of the moisture.) I top my salad with Bragg's vinaigrette. Sunflower seeds if I can spare the calories.

That should be enough ideas!
Enjoy. We do!
