Have macros left and not sure what to eat

Can anyone give me some advice on what to eat with these macros remaining? I am really craving ice cream, but know not to go down that rabbit hole.

Here is what I have left

    I would have no problem eating half a cup of ice cream. In fact that wouldn't fill the number of calories you have left.

    Peanut butter sandwich and a glass of milk might.

    Peanut butter and/or ice cream is ALWAYS the answer.

    My problem is all I have is things like P2, unsweetened almond milk at just 30 calories a serving. It is going on 830pm and I will be going to bed around 1130-1230ish and want something filling, but still healthy. I may have to run to the grocery store. A lot of things kept me busy this afternoon that I didn't have time to stop for food. Regretting that mistake.

    There are no bad foods. Only bad calorie goals.

    i would scramble 1 1/2 cup egg whites, with onion and bell pepper, then after taken off the heat, mix in a cup of fresh raw chopped spinach, and top it with some cheese and tabasco sauce... that should give you over 40 g of protein, and use about 250 calories... could even chop up a couple slices of turkey bacon and add it in... then id have some ice cream for desert!

    Best way to go! will cut your macros nearly in half and you can indulge on that ice cream.

    Great suggestion! I think I will add some protein powder to an iced coffee (black, no sugar) to bump protein up as well.

    Had the ice cream and you really don't get much in one serving size, but already had 6g fat at 170 calories.

    I am really not hungry, at all, but I know I need to get the calories in. :/
