    Take some lowfat cottage cheese, slice up a green apple, sprinkle cinnamon, Nuke for 15 seconds. Awesome. Calories about 90 in a small green apple and 90 in a half cup of lowfat cottage cheese so leaving room for error, about 200 calories.

    I like to get those little 100 calorie packs of craisins. They're good for a sweet craving. Same with the Jello chocolate mousse cups - 60 calories a cup! Special K cracker chips are really good, too.

    300-ish calorie pasta dinner:

    1 serving whole grain linguine (or spaghetti, or whatever shape you like)
    1 cup torn baby spinach
    1 tablespoon of a 50 calorie or less pesto (I think we can't say brand names on here...)
    2 tablespoons good quality shredded parmesan or pecorino romano cheese

    1) Cook and drain pasta.
    2) Place spinach in the same pot and return pasta to pot. Cover for 3 minutes to wilt spinach.
    3) Add cheese and pesto and toss everything together.
    4) Enjoy!

    I have one of those popcorn makers at home and just spray the popcorn with a light spray (olive oil pam) and then sprinkle on hidden valley ranch seasoning.

    Air popped popcorn is about 30 cals a cup! and the seasoning is 5 cals for 2 tsp. i believe.. just watch the sodium :(

    English muffin with a wee bit of peanut butter
    apple
    dried apricots (really satisfies that "I must have chocolate now" craving)
