What are your healthy staple foods?

Healthy staples for me which is more of last 12 months:

Light noodles (durum wheat, seminola, buckwheat, green tea or light egg noodle...)
red/ yellow/orange peppers (I find green peppers just boring)
egg whites (I haven't bought real round breakable eggs for a long time)
cornflakes (no sugar) or oatmeal
skim milk (Canada's version is not a terrible blue-white milky stuff.)
Chinese green veggie (different varieties here)
onions
garlic
ginger root
tomatoes
couscous


I don't eat much bread nor white rice anymore. When I have bread, it's an artisan bread, so good that it needs no spread of any kind.
I have not bought peanut butter for home in...the past decade or so. I have peanut butter on toast at restaurants.

Thanks for your post. I wonder why don't you eat the yokes? That's where all the nutrition is. It's one of the most nutritious foods you can eat.

The yolks are where the cholesterol and fat are found, egg whites have lots of protein and few carbs. It is a great low-fat protein source. I do consume quite a lot of these, with the occasional whole egg.

Other staples are skinless chicken breasts, turkey bacon, turkey sausage, broccoli, brussel sprouts, apples, bananas, peanut butter, salad greens, onions, tomatoes, carrots, and other veggies. Some brown rice and low fat granola.
