If you like spicy Thai food you can try this, its quite filling and contains around 450 calories.
I read somewhere that raw chllis can increase your metabolism (see below the Recipe)

FOR THE DRESSING
Juice of 2 limes
Tablespoon of fish sauce
1 shallot finely chopped
Some chillis (depending on how hot you like it) :devil:
teaspoon of pure honey
1/2 cup of corriander


1 cup of cooked rice noodle chilled
4 cherry tomato (halved)
1 small smoked mackerel fillet.

Mix all the stuff for the dressing in a bowl and set aside. Put the noodles in a serving bowl with the fish and tomato and then mix in the dressing.


WEB QUOTE:
Besides power-packed with vitamin C, bell peppers also provide vitamin B6, phytochemicals such as lycopene and beta-carotene (the precursor for vitamin A), folate, potassium and plenty of fiber. The only difference between sweet peppers and chilli peppers is the presence of capsaicin in chilli peppers. Capsaicin itself holds numerous health benefits:

Effective treatment and natural pain relief for inflammation such as arthritis, psoriasis, diabetic neuropathy.

Reduce risk of heart attack and stroke as it helps to reduce cholesterol levels and formation of blood clots.

Clear blocked nose and congested lungs.

Prevent prostate cancer by inhibiting growth of cancerous cells ? Prevent stomach ulcers by killing bacteria in the stomach and stimulate more protective stomach juices.

Help to lose weight as it speeds up the body?s metabolism rate, suppresses appetite and cravings for sweet foods.

Lower risk of Type 2 diabetes by controlling the blood sugar.
