    Bagel Thins are the best invention ever! I just had one for lunch with hot spicy humus, lite turkey and romaine. Filling and yummy!

    Boiled eggs are cheap and filling (on a bagel thin - even better!)

    Check out the frozen section of your grocery store, bags of frozen vegetables are pretty cheap. I like to buy green beans and yellow beans, and I eat them on the side of everything, filling, high fiber, and low calorie. You can buy other veggie mixes, and buy cans of tomato sauce and mix together and have with whole wheat pasta, or pour the mixture on top of a chicken breast, or on top of a burger. You can also make a hearty sauce with ground beef and tomato sauce and frozen veggies, and just eat it plain or with pasta.

    Sorry I don't have a recipe! My boyfriend is the sauce expert and whenever we make it he usually will just wing it. Here's some of the stuff we add: onions, garlic, italian spices, hot pepper flakes, frozen veggies, extra lean ground beef, and chopped up low-fat spicy turkey sausage. We try and make the sauce really thick and meaty so it's filling on its own. I usually eat the sauce on top of green beans, he eats it on top of regular pasta.
