3. Almonds

Research shows that a moderately low-carb diet is heart-healthy, as long as you get your protein and fat from healthful sources. Almonds are not only low-carb, with about six grams per ounce, but they also have 14 grams of fat and six grams of protein. Furthermore, they're a great source of vitamins E and B2. An excellent option for days when you're rushed, a handful of almonds tastes great as is or topping some yogurt.
