I'm trying to think of some good foods that don't need to be cooked or prepared on the stove to eat that aren't junk. Mostly trying to think of things to eat for snacks inbetween meals. I need to start eating healthier and wean myself off of junk food. I'm not much of a fan of veggies and only like some fruits.
I have been thinking of making yogurt parfaits. I like the taste of them for some reason even better than the store boughten flavored yogurt. Probably due to it being more healthy making it from scratch.
My aunt-in-law made a strawberry angel food cake. She cut the cake in half and put strawberry flavored jello that had sliced strawberries inside it between the pieces. Then she made her own cool whip and sprinkled diced strawberries on top. That was really good. I went down to my moms to visit and she had a get together so I decided to try to make a couple cakes like that. I used regular cool whip since I didn't know her recipe and didn't have internet to look one up. My mom went over to cut herself a slice and she ended up having to serve out 7 pieces before getting one herself. Everyone loved it. My step dad had me make another one later on cause he loved it even though he doesn't like angel food cake. That was simple to make and more healthy than what I usually eat. I'm not even a big strawberry eater but loved it with the cake.
I will occasionaly eat apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, and unsalted nuts. I will eat berries as long as they are in something like yogurt.
I did see some veggie and fruit juice in the expensive section of the fresh produce section of the grocery store. Most of the bottles only had like water and fruit concentrate in them. There was one that had a couple other ingredients in it. I was thinking about trying some of those since I don't get enough of either in my diet. Are they worth drinking? I'm not sure of the brand they are but they are near the POM pomegranate juice bottles.
The juice bottles are the Bolthouse Farms brand.
