Turkey
2 / 15
It’s low in fat and sodium, and high in protein. And versatile, too: Wrap some turkey breast in a whole-wheat tortilla for a snack or take it to work for lunch.
Salsa
3 / 15
Make some yourself — it’s a healthy, easy way to put some zip into egg dishes, soups, and sauces. Use it instead of oily dressings on vegetables and heartier salads, too. But be forewarned: Health benefits decline, in a big way, if you eat it with a giant bag of heavily salted, processed, deep-fried corn chips.
Hummus
4 / 15
This Middle Eastern dip — traditionally made with chickpeas, garlic, and olive oil — is low in fat and calories and high in protein and fiber. Chickpeas are legumes, which can be good for people with high blood pressure and diabetes. They also can lower your cholesterol and may help protect you against cancer. And skip the pita chips. Try some with veggies like sliced cucumbers, carrots, or cherry tomatoes.
