Cauliflower

Cauliflower is high in fiber, which promotes healthy digestion and elimination. If stress causes constipation or other digestive problems, bulk up on this veggie.

To de-stress: Steam half a cup of cauliflower and mash (as you would potatoes) with some olive oil and spices and serve it as a guilt-free side dish to basically any entrée!
