health nut

i like to think that i’m a relatively healthy eater. i watch what i eat and try to have lots of fruit and veggies on hand and stephen and i enjoy cooking a lot together. i was trying to find out what the best foods are for you (and maybe you already know) but i came across the list of “superfoods” on webMD. here they are:

• beans
• blueberries
• broccoli
• oats
• oranges
• pumpkin
• salmon
• soy
• spinach
• tea (green or black)
• tomatoes
• turkey
• walnuts
• yogurt

lucky for me i LOVE almost everything on this list. also i’ve been making frequent trips to the local farmer’s market and there is an abundance of berries up there right now and that makes it much easier. and while i’m on the subject, if you’re in the market for getting more fit, yahoo had a great article listing what the best “flat-belly” foods are, and it almost mirrors the superfoods:

• spinach
• yogurt
• tomatoes
• carrots
• blueberries
• black beans
• walnuts
• oats

the best thing about the yahoo list is that it also gives you substitutes in case you don’t have those exact foods handy. thought some of you would enjoy that!
