Are Healthy and Delicious Mutually Exclusive?

I think it is possible to eat healthy, and have it be delicious. I agree with everyone who has mentioned balance, moderation, exercise etc. - those are a given. But when it comes to the actual food, I think a lot of people don't realize how to make "healthy" food taste good. Don't forget about garlic, lemon, spices, etc, which flavour food, and make it delectable, even if it is lower-fat, lower-sugar, etc. For instance, for lunch today I am making a lentil and rice soup - the quintessential "healthy" food (whole grains, legumes, vegetables, etc.) But - with indian spices and garlic, and the creamy texture which comes from cooking the lentils, this soup tastes amazing! Health food isn't all about plain oats and dry bread. Experimenting and having fun with your food is part of feeling good about yourself and being healthy.

What's Your Go-To Weekday Breakfast?

My usual weekday breakfast is either fruit yogurt with cereal mixed in + glass of grapefruit juice, or whole grain toast with almond butter, honey and flaxseeds, + grapefruit juice.
