All too often, seemingly healthy snacks are secretly loaded with sugar, saturated fat, and carbohydrates. That's why we handpicked the healthiest foods to eat that are delicious and incredibly easy to cook. After all, rule number one for sticking to a smart meal plan is to not get bored, and these healthy ingredients will keep you on your toes (promise!).

You can use this as a rule of thumb when shopping: if the food is simple, wholesome, plant-based, and minimally processed, you're in good shape. (Literally.)
