5 Heart Healthy Foods
It is always good to reinforce diet! Here is an article of some foods I've been eating:
5 Heart Healthy Foods
OK - some of my favorites!!!!
Blueberries
Salmon
Soy Protein
Oatmeal
Spinach
The only one I do not eat a lot of is the Soy Protein - here are some ways to get it!
1. Pack a soy protein bar or a bag of soy nuts for a quick snack during the day.
2. Edamame (the Japanese name for green soybeans) are snacks even kids will love! Find these nutritious nuggets in the freezer section at your supermarket. Boil them, then serve warm in the pod. Pop them out of the pod to eat plain or with a low-fat dip.
3. Tofu, made of soy beans, takes on the flavor of spices and foods you cook with it. Saute cubed tofu with green and red peppers, sliced garlic, and a dash or two of curry powder. Or add tofu to soups for a healthy dose of fat-free protein.
Web MD is one of my favorite web sites. What do you think? I need to look for some Edamame & Soy Protein Bars!!!
