A healthy food that you love

There are quite a few healthy foods that I enjoy, actually.

The first one that came to mind, though? Avocados.

I also really love tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers.

And I think I have liked every fruit that I’ve tried.

So, I like lots of produce.

Beyond that, it gets a little fuzzier to define what is healthy.

I could say, “I like yogurt!” and someone could say, “That’s not healthy because it’s dairy. You shouldn’t eat dairy.”

I could say that I like cheese, and the same thing could happen.

I like eggs and chicken and shrimp, but not everyone thinks those are healthy foods either.

So, I guess I’d say this:

  • I like a lot of produce
  • Beyond that, I like a lot of homemade, not-crazy-processed foods

Bonus: a healthy food I don’t like! That would be olives. I know olives are very good for me, but I have tried and tried to like them and I just do not.

What’s a healthy food you love?

    So much produce. Those are the “treats” I always get when I get to a store: lettuce, avocado, mushrooms, bell peppers, cucumbers, sweet potatoes . . . This is why I have a garden.

    Real tomatoes from the garden. I won’t eat store bought ones. Avocados and sweet corn, wow!

      Store-bought grape tomatoes are pretty good. But regular tomatoes from the store in January? Terrible.

    I think it’s funny you said avocado because I have been reading your archives at random and just read the post where you “wasted” avocados and came clean that you don’t like them. *gasp* I’m glad you’ve changed camps haha

    I’m sadly indifferent to produce. I eat fruits and vegetables because it’s wise, and I do know what tastes good (fresh green beans! garden tomatoes and cucumbers! raspberries! roasted vegetables!).

    My favorite healthy foods are the ones that seem to take a popularity contest hit from time to time — cheese and other dairy, beef, simple cereals, breads, plain popcorn. Or popcorn with olive oil, salt and pepper, and a dash of parmesan. That’s very lovely.

Originally, it was me, writing from a list of daily prompts.

But for the moment, I’m using it to share the small essays I’ve written over the last two years, since my evangelical self left my marriage.

Because I don’t want this to be an internet tabloid, the new posts here are only available to members of my Patreon community.

My main blog is The Frugal Girl, if you’d like to read more of my words! All posts there are free.
