I say simple because cookbooks I get never have anything quick and simple, so let me know your secrets.
No chocolate, limited sugar (as in no candy), try and cut down on the fat/grease.

kick off your metabolism first thing in the morning (30 mins after you wake up) by eating a bowl of oatmeal (not from the packs, but rolled or steel cut oats), sweetened with honey (raw, unheated, unfiltered), and a large glass of water
invest in a small propane bbq (now that the weathers about to warm up!) and start having LEAN meat - skinless/boneless chicken & turkey breasts; buffalo steaks, turkey burgers (from ground breast meat) and LOTS of asparagus with your meals

the more processed & removed from nature your food is, the less nutritious your food will be
try to stay away from high sugar fruits such as grapes, strawberries, etc...eat lots of salad (spring mix greens or spinach greens, no romaine lettuce!) with sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, mushrooms and other great garden vegatables...use a vinagrette dressing
eat lots of green vegatables (broccoli, spinach, asparagus)
eat apples in the evenings as your snacks
snack on seeds (walnuts, sunflower seeds, cashews, and almonds) when you're craving a snack
and if you MUST eat a cereal bar/power bar quick snack, i would highly recommend these:

lastly, try to eat organic when possible....eat free-range, vegetarian fed, non-antibiotic-injected chicken & turkey whenever possible
