I LOVE Brussel sprouts!! I cook them in my veggie steamer.

These are all actually really good. Add to the list: homemade sourdough bread. Lower glycemic index that whole wheat, no gluten if made properly, low carb, high nutrition, and naturally good for you.

I could live on mushrooms.

My mom used to often eat zapote in childhood in Mexico... she says it's a marvelous fruit like no other.

For those that don't like the taste of Brussels sprouts add a teaspoon of vinegar to the cooking water.. It improves the flavour!! Also foods like watercress and Savoy cabbage are great for you
