    Looks great - love the idea of blackberries. I just don't buy too many fresh berries b/c of price. But I'm tempted now. :)

    Here's a new one for you. Now, bear in mind that I wasn't really intending on making the rotini pasta with cheese [it's one of those Betty Crocker "Bowl Appetit's] but I had "Mother Hubbard Syndrome" and didn't have a side dish. But this meal was still under 500 calories all total. It is a broiled pollack fillet that has been marinated in sun dried tomato vinaigrette. It tasted very good!!

    ETA: Yes the meat replacers are processed but they're actually not too bad, containing mostly natural ingredients (and they *are* yummy!).
