Personal magnesium intake

These are the foods I eat on a daily basis with highest magnesium intake:

Mixed Nuts - 308 mg per cup
Spinach - 150mg per cup
Yerba Mate - 90mg per cup
Chocolate Soymilk - 39mg per cup
Coffee (espresso) - 96mg per 4 oz

Total magnesium: 683mg

Luckily I'm meeting my recommended intake of 400mg per day.
