    We eat a lot of grilled corn o the cob. I think it's between about 100-150 cals depending on if you use butter.

    I grilled cherry tomatoes and summer squash last night -- NIRVANA!! I can't wait to hit the grocery store and load up on eggplant, summer squash, cherry tomatoes, zuchinni, peppers, and onions!!

    I looked at my husbands grilled brats and said "That's all you can have. I, however, can have almost as much as I can bear of these grilled veggies with my grilled chicken."

    "Really?" he said. "How much can you have?"

    I replied "Lets put it this way; I will fill up on these til I burst before I've hit the 200 calorie mark."
