Chili! TVP + tomatoes + beans = yum. I hear garlic has some great cholesteroly benefits, but it doesn't really matter because garlic is just fucking delicious, so hopefully you're eating a lot of it anyway. Maybe bake a whole-wheat foccaccia to eat with this? Oh baby.
Hardboiled eggs are great snacks! Eggs are amazing. In the mornings, I have oatmeal with raisins (stevia to sweeten) and scrambled eggs with melted cottage cheese on top. This keeps me full for years, it's low/stable GI (the raisins are negligible), and has the eggs and oatmeal working towards good things.
Berries! Blueberries get a lot of play, but blackberries and strawberries are also some pretty awesome tiny little fruits. Add to greek yogurt + almonds, and smile a big smile.
