Right now mine is anything light. I am loving salads and wanting to make them the mainstay of my lunch and dinner. That being the case, I am going to need variety to keep those greens interesting. Any great websites or recipes?
I also enjoy trail mixes. Nut and seed based ones are a great source of vitamins and minerals. I avoid the ones with candy in them of course. Walmart's Indugent mix is tasty, but definately not figure friendly with all those different chips in it.
The mix I am eating currently is raisins, sunflower seeds, peanuts and almonds. Handful of each in a closeable bowl. Makes for a great all day snack.
I eat celery with peanut butter or Davinci syrup sweetened cream cheese. That is out of this world as well.

Broccoli is something I absolutely love and would gladly eat that as my vegetable of choice everyday.
In the stores here they have a trail mix that consists of peanuts, chili covered peanuts (aka katjang) pumpkin seeds and almonds. Once in a while when I feel like a treat I will get a bag of that stuff. They sell it in re-sealable bags so it will stay fresh for awhile.

I love broccoli too. My favorite is roasted. I have never seen that trail mix, but prefer to make my own anyways. That way I know where the ingredients come from.

That homemade mix in a bowl sounds pretty tasty, and healthy. I myself will usually snack on an apple throughout the day. And if I get bored with that, sometimes I will bring some peanut butter into the picture. All in all, I like most fruit in general.

I love me some apples too. It is by far one of the best fruits.
