This is all great information! Here are my wholesome faves:
Eggs
Low fat cheese
Sourdough bread (put those three together and you've got an egg "mockmuffin"--a common breakfast for me)
Old fashioned oats (I prefer cooked with milk)
Milk
Maple syrup for my oatmeal
Extra lean turkey bacon
Deli turkey
Chicken breasts
Tons of salad -- baby greens, shredded cabbage, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes
Supplemented with other crunchies....nuts, water chestnuts, chow mein noodles (just a little bit!), seeds
And some sweet accents...in moderation as well...mandarin oranges packed in juice, golden raisins, chopped apple, dried cranberries
Grapes! Lots of 'em
Tofu
Brown rice
Extra lean ground turkey and beef
Salmon, shrimp, and other fish would be on the list but my husband hates seafood so I only eat it when I dine out (similarly, he abstains from some foods I find too stinky to bear)
Other treats...kashi chewy granola bars, kashi golean and golean crunch, skinny cow ice cream sandwiches (not health food but a step up from a drive thru milkshake)
