Watermelon
Not only does it make a pretty picture but a sweet fruit! With over 50 varieties, its a close cousin to cucumber, pumpkin and squash. The most common kinds are seeded, seedless, picnic, icebox, and yellow or orange fleshed. When selecting a watermelon, look for a firm symmetrical melon that is heavy for its size and free of bruises and gashes. Watermelon is very hydrating; it is also full of potassium and lycopene.

Fabulous Fin Fish
One of my favorite foods, fish is full of omega-3 fatty acids. Whether in a sushi meal, broiled or BBQ, there are so many varieties to choose from. Below I have featured a few of my favorites:
Barramundi: With a mild and sweet flavor, enjoy this white fish in Thai cuisine
Red Snapper: A firmer fish with a meaty taste
Pollock: A mild flavored fish filled with phosphorus, selenium, and B12
