...when every channel shows the same thing, from "The Biggest Loser" to "True Life: I'm on a Diet." If you have made it out of the holiday period unscathed, congratulations. For those who have indulged too often in triple creme cheese, Acme baguettes and little chocolates from New York, here are the top five foods for the new year.
1. Fage 0% yogurt. While I have extolled the virtues of this before, it makes a wonderful, creamy and filling breakfast when topped with blueberries.
2. Kiwis. Instead of reaching for that chocolate or buying a Pinkberry, take a kiwi and use a spoon to scoop out the tart, luscious fruit. Add a glass of cold nonfat milk for a snack.
3. Chicken breast. Grilled on a skillet with some lemon, salt, rosemary, and brushed lightly with low-fat salad dressing, it adds nicely to a salad of mesclun greens with salsa.
4. Egg whites. Whether scrambled or boiled (with the yolks discarded), this is an excellent source of protein.
5. Clementines. Apart from being a source of vitamin C, these have a stronger flavor than many oranges and can be quite juicy.
