Brown rice, multi grain bread, potatoes, whole wheat pasta ...fruit...veggies...I have at least 2 servings of fruits/veggies a day, and usually 1-2 servings of grains/starches. (When I say servings I mean my mini sized amounts of food, lol, not actual servings sizes necessarily...)
Not sure what you mean by nutritional breakdown though...do you mean for individual items, or are you looking for a daily calorie/fat/protein/carb breakdown? I don't count daily, so I can't answer that, but I wanted to clarify for other people.
