Favorite and healthy foods: What are they?
What a short list!
I'm vegetarian & rarely eat anything unhealthy.
Nuts, seeds, squash, grapefruits, pomegranates, quinoa, kefir...
What is kefir really? Dairy?
I will have to send you the link later.
ok
Fermented dairy. There's also water kefir, but the nutritional & probiotic value is considerably lower.
yes I agree - and what a strange list single foods and then a soup!
not sure what the results will show ...?
I vote lentil soup. Then berries like raspberry though that was not there. Strawberries I don't like as much.
It's okay to like a certain type of food and not another.
im just getting started using kale i put it in my smoothies. i'v seen it being steamed and fried. on master chef they call if cavelo nero love grace
Thank you for saying this!😀
I love making a kale pesto to have with pasta! 
How do you make kale pesto niretro ? I like the sound of it.
See link below - I use Grano Padano cheese instead of Parmesan (Parmesan is not vegetarian). You can also use toasted pine nuts instead of the toasted walnuts if you prefer

I will have to look at that site later when I'm done with my work for the Senior Center! Thanks for sharing.
Great idea
I have always loved pineapples. I recently learnt that they don't carry a lot of calories! They now rank above bananas 😂. I just love the combination of Kale and beans.
Sounds great! I can't have bananas because of too much potassium. Miss them!
Sorry I meant to say baked beans
Rosie 😊
It's okay!
Vegetarian here, so they're pretty much always on my list - apart from lentils which don't agree with my IBS!
I agree are great and I like all of them. My problem is I prefer ice cream ginger biscuits and lemon drizzle cake
Is the ice cream low fat or fat free?
Hi my name is janice i am in a wheelchair and i had polio when i was seven i now have ms i know i am unable to walk but would love to loss some weight i was 9 stone now i am 11 stone please could you help me loss weight sensibley thank you.
I will be happy to send you a message by pm. Look for it in a little while. Will let you know when I send it. How are you feeling today?
Hi Janice,
Try cutting out all processed foods, especially those with artificial sweeteners, as they mess up digestion & metabolism. Eating a grapefruit with as much of the white pith as you can manage, improves the digestion of fats. Try to include a good probiotic like kefir, which will give you more nutrients, protein, & improve your digestion. chriskresser.com/kefir-the-...
Everyone's metabolism is different, so you need to work out what's best for you, though low fat diets that people try don't work long term. Have a look at Chris Kresser's website for good articles & free e-books. I don't follow a paleo diet, but what he writes makes sense.
I have a clean food diet, eat a lot of fruit & vegetables, & a lot of good fats as I eat 100g of nuts & seeds a day, along with full fat dairy. I'm not too good at burning starches as injuries have made me inactive.

Sent you a message right now, 3268 . Sorry for the delay.
My all time favorite healthy food is avocado. Others on the list are: all beans, berries, 85% dark choc (I like green&blacks for sweetness but there are plenty of brands I haven't tried), salmon, tropical fruit and smoked almonds. Lentils I'm still learning to love.. kale I have a very turbulent on off relationship.. mainly not into it.
This is a very good list of the foods you like, HappyBibi. Thanks for sharing!😀
I've actually never had lentil soup!
Try it when the temps. are cooler! Lentil soup is really great!
They are healthy.
