    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!

    Almonds & almond milk, avocado, asparagus, broccoli, eggs, lean meat (chicken/turkey/pork/beef), berries (especially blackberries/raspberries), herbal teas.

    Does coffee count? I don't think I could live without it. I don't drink it every day but I absolutely love the taste and smell of it.

    Food I can't live without now:

    Seasonal fruit - right now I'm obsessed with omega plums!
    Spinach
    Tomato
    Greek yogurt
    Chillis!
    And burgers and pizza, but waaaay healthier ones.

    And I wonder how I got so lardy!

    Baby carrots! They are cold and crunchy and just perfect. I could probably live off these alone!

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