I'm looking for recipes that will fill me up w/ not so many calories. (Preferably no starch, bread etc...) I LOVE Calypso chicken http://www.publix.com/aprons/meals/MainDish/SimpleMeal.do?mealId=2018&mealGroupId=1004 I exclude the rice and only cook the peas in 1/4 cup of coconut milk w/ jerk seasoning. 360 cal meal and you feel as if you cheated but came far from! AND you have 3 days of leftovers! Share your favorite recipes please, I'd love to try some new things.

I usually cook the burger in "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Light" instead of any oils.
It's unexplainable how much I love this little 300 calorie meal.0 -
I just posted this in the kale thread but it really is my go-to recipe for something fast and delicious - turkey kale burgers! from here: http://runnersfeed.com/homemade-kale-turkey-burgers/
I eat them without the bun and top with avocado slices - sooo tasty.0
