Cottage Cheese, Tomatoes, and Avocado!

Pregnancy Power Foods!  And I'm loving it.
Just slice, dice, and mix.  I eat it like a salsa with Red Hot Blues (organic chips that rock our world).

Avocado: folic acid, potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B6
Cottage Cheese: calcium, protein
Tomato: lycopene (an antioxidant) best absorbed with fats like avocado 

Mine doesn't look as pretty because I mix it all up 


Now, some people have issues with avocados and how much FAT they have.  It drives me nuts!  This is some of the best type of fat you can consume.  I'm sure you are eating other fats, and they most likely are not providing the nutrients that an avocado does so I don't get it.  I don't think I am any fatter because of the fact that I can eat an avocado in one sitting.  BUT, I usually limit myself to half.

YUM!  Its almost gone...
My husband, on the other hand, thinks its "gross" and isn't indulging with me.  He hates cottage cheese.
