It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's superfoods! These foods may not be wearing capes but their nutritional benefits and value make them quite "super".
I found this informative list on Greatist, a wonderful website full of awesome articles and information on fitness, health, and happiness. All credit for this information goes to the lovely Kate Morin, who originally posted this article on Greatist this past Spring.
Check out the A-Z list here:

The list is composed of a variety of fruits, veggies, whole grains with reasons why each is so "super" as well as a recipe idea to try incorporating the super food! And the best part, almost every single item on the list is gluten free!
Which superfoods do you already eat on a daily basis or incorporate quite frequently?
Here's my personal superfood list of what I already eat:
Avocado
Chia Seeds
Dates
Eggs
Grapes (when it's summer)
Lemon
Nuts
Oatmeal
Pumpkin
Quinoa
Salmon
Tea
Vegetables
Watermelon (when it's summer)
Yams
Zucchinni
And my list of superfoods I'd like to try:
Beets
Flax
Hemp
Fun fact: Don't like your superfood the first time you try it? In order to truly see if you like a food item or not, you must try it at least three times! I hate salmon the first time, thought it was okay the second, and liked it the fourth, now I love it!
