Nuts!!

Nuts contain, I believe, mostly monounsaturated fats, meaning they'll lower your LDL (bad) cholesterol and raise your HDL (good) cholesterol, and they'll be easy to burn for energy purposes.

They also contain some complex carbohydrates and protein.

If you get nuts, avoid salted nuts, and make sure your peanuts are as fresh as possible (because they've found that microscopic mold grows on peanut oil that is carcinogenic).
 
Generally, I think the rule for nuts is they're good for you, but not in large amounts. Consider them as a source of good fats - as good as those fats are for you, they're still fats and have a lot of calories in a few nuts.
