    Almond Butter
    Bananas
    Sprouted Grain Bread (preferably Silver Hills Squirrelly Bread)

    I eat this combo for breakfast almost every day and would gladly eat it for my other meals too if needed. :)

    Green tea helps me to relax, I drink it at night because I can sometimes eat like a horse and it tricks my tummy into thinking it's eaten.

    Tuna.......need I say more?!

    Green leafy salads, I'm a salad addict, I love my pasta so to save on Calories or KJ I only do half the amount of pasta and fill the rest of my bowl up with salad :)

    Fish, 0% Fage yoghurt, Dried fruit + seeds. To name three is just impossible really, I prefer to just list all the foods I eat on a regular basis for health.

    Honestly, I do appreciate all the info I can get because I too have quite an extensive must have list as well. I didn't include my PB2, hot green tea, precooked grilled chicken strips, greek yogurt, and canned tuna! Oh, did I mention woven reduced fat wheat crackers and rice cakes, or more recently that I have added coconut oil in my diet? All these staples with a costly price tag when you think about it, but the trade off is worth it because I have managed to drop 3 sizes in the last 6 months(without exersize I might add).

    1. Salsa - This has been one of my saving graces in replacing toppings and condiments. For tacos and fajitas, it replaces cheese and sour cream. For snacks, I mix with half an avocado to eat with tostitos for a quick and easy bump in healthy fats. I also put a bit on my burgers and chicken to replace high calorie condiments.

    2. Prepackaged salads - This is purely for convenience. The preportioned, single serving Caeser and Cobb salad are my favorites that I can grab and go. I never have to worry about measuring or taking time to cut lettuce and it's great for a quick lunch.

    3. 100 Calorie popcorn packs - Again, quick and easy snack with no measuring or trying to figure calories. Plus, I LOVE popcorn!

    I love anything that's single serving and prepackaged. It's a bit more expensive but it makes calorie counting simple for me with no prepping, measuring or weighing. You can get soup, snacks, fruits, veggies and even meats. Quick and simple is how I stick with it.
