Mangoes
Mangoes are a "high-volume" food, meaning they contain a high percentage of water, so you get a lot of food for a relatively few number of calories (135 for a whole mango)! Mangoes have a lot of potassium, vitamin A and beta-carotene, plus they have some vitamin C, vitamin K, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium, as well as a smattering of other nutrients. They're believed to be a rich source of enzymes, making them ideal to use as a tenderizing agent and perfect for marinades. And one mango contains more than 3 1/2 g of fiber.
