Potatoes
Potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin C, and if you eat the skins they are also a great source of potassium and fiber. One medium sized potato has only 100 calories and no fat or cholesterol. Try topping a baked potato with your favorite salsa and one and one-half ounces of shredded cheese. You will have a healthy meal with only around 300 calories.
