If you're mulling over not being able to eat carbs because of Passover, fear not!

To refresh your memory, if you're keeping kosher for Passover, you're supposed to avoid foods, except matzo, made with wheat, barley, rye, spelt, or oats.

Meanwhile, these foods should keep you pretty full for the next week.
